Stylish and warm tights for winter
Everyone who likes to wear skirts and dresses during cold season needs warm hosiery – that’s for sure. My favourites for winter are thermal tights, as they keep me warm even when it’s freezing cold outside. However, they can be a bit boring. This is why I am going to show you five alternatives that keep you warm as well but add some variety to your wardrobe.
White Tights for cold Days
White tights* might look a bit girly. I still like them, tough, especially when you wish for some variety. White knitted tights look especially warm and wintry, by the way.
How to style white tights: I like to team mini dresses or at least a bit shorter, 60s inspired dresses with white tights. Some cool accessories like a a beret and matching gloves, for example, finish the winter outfit.
