Jcrew Tights

It starts with the first few crisp fall days and, thanks to long New England winters and springs slow thaw, usually lasts until early (and oh, sometimes late, unfortunately) May.

Yes, I am talking about the donning of tights. Even when the chilly weather sets in, I’m personally still a huge skirt, tights, and boots advocate for three reasons – I’ve always liked dressing up, I think throwing on a pair of tights and a dress in the morning actually requires less thought then some pant combo outfits, and well, I’m tall. It is infinitely easier to find skirts that fit me well and pair them with tights then it is to find cute, work appropriate pants that don’t make me look like I’m prepared for a flood.

Over the years I’ve become a bit of a tight connoisseur. All tights are certainly not created equal and after some very non-scientific testing I’ve decided the Jcrew makes far and away the best tights around. They come in a wide array of colors so you can think beyond basic blacks and brown AND they’re thicker than just about any other tights I’ve tried, which means they keep your legs warmer than those other “tights” that are really just panty hose colored a shade darker than normal.

Of course, they’re not as cheap as those you can grab if you run into a Target, CVS, or Walgreens to pick up a pair, but they also last a heck of a lot longer than the $5 pair would too. When it comes to these tights, this is truly a case of you get what you pay for.

Average Price: Range between $16.50-$26.50
