Now here is a trend that you parents are probably praying they never see you wear. Henry Holland’s ‘trompe l’oeil’ suspender tights took an a life of their own and were first spotted on British rock girls such as Pixie Geldorf, the Saturdays… and then the bloggers got their hands on them and that was that, suspenders were back in. I say suspenders because some, more daring than others, sported the real thing and wore them casually as day wear. Personally, I feel that some thing should stay in the bedroom or maybe I am just not too daring enough?!
Anyway, Henry Holland is a master when it comes to tights (special post on HH and his playful tights soon) and I don’t know if I get (and like) them because I am British but I know not to take these little things too seriously and I actually quite like them and think them playful and flirty without screaming ‘go back home and put some clothes on woman’. Even though this is not a new trend and has been around for a year or so, I thought the 1st of September was the perfect day to celebrate the steady come back of tights.

When there is a successful trend, there are copycats and Topshop came up with suspender tights of their own also adopted by our favorite trend setters. These are even more playful and less litteral than HH’s version. But nevertheless, still only for the daring.

I don’t know if I could wear them out but these girls look so great maybe I’ll screw up the courage to at least try!
I think my dad would have a heart attack then again it is better it is just a trombe l’oeil and ou are wearing tights. I say go for it if you dare

T’as raison ça donne très bien. Mais pas certaine d’oser.
Moi j’aurai aimé que claudia les achètent, je vais rester avec mon bon collants opaques je pense. T’es à égalité l’oublie pas haha
Tu me met la pression je n’aime pas ça.
C’est sûr qu’un trou de cigarette dans un bas opaque ça passe tjs mieux
Maybe I could wear these tights but not near as well as these models.
How do you know if you don’t give it a try

Thanks for the feature!! love all those looks!
You are more than welcome, I really love the way you wear yours so casually

The real things are definitely too much. I have the Topshop ones that I’m waiting to wear out. I did wear it once, but then got a little shy and took them off again! Maybe I’ll try again!
