I feel so weird but wonderful back in my bright yellow tights! I used to be HUGELY into bright coloured tights back around 2010-2011 - I had just about every colour, and I even got emails from a couple of coloured tights fetisjists. Yep, the less glamorous side of life as a blogger. But then I felt like the whole coloured tights look was too sweet, too girly, too manic pixie dream girl. And those are all identities that I do not feel attracted to.
However, something clicked in my brain a couple of months ago where I got completely obsessed by all things bright red, and before I knew it I was back in my red tights. Since my other colour infatuation (yellow, natch) has been going strong for about a year now, it was only a matter of time before I would pull out my yellow tights again. Just stop me if I ever try to wear bright red and bright yellow together, OK. Just a little too Ronald McDonald to still be stylish.
But I love how this outfit came together! Back when I used to wear bright tights on the regular, I always tried to have the colour return somewhere in the rest of my outfit. The touches of yellow in the floral print on my blue dress picks up the yellow from my tights, and this keeps the whole look cohesive despite being so bright and colourful.
Hope you like the look, and let's all cross our fingers and toes for spring to arrive sooner rather than later!
