Fashion Debate: Fishnet Tights – Hot or Not For 2012?

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

So if you ever get a job at 3am, remember not to wear Fishnet Tights and Red Heels. According to their fashion columnist the risqué combo is the ‘archetypal tart outfit’ after their not so favourite celebrity Imogen Thomas turned up wearing just that at an event last night. Over at ‘The Sun’ however it was a different story, Imogen was described as looking ‘suitably dressed’ for the rock themed occasion.

What’s your view? Fishnet/mesh is expected to be a huge trend for spring summer 2012. It was spotted on the catwalks over at Jaeger, Marios Schwab and Henry Holland, to name a few. According to 3am it was a short-lived trend in the 80’s are they about to be proven wrong? Will the Fishnet Hosiery trend hit the fashion headlines next season?

I want to hear your thoughts … let us know, comment below, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s start a debate!

Transform Those Pasty Pins Now!

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011

Having resigned myself to the fact that my pins wouldn’t be seeing the light of day for at least the next 6 months, stripped of all fake tan, they we’re cruelly exposed to the unfortunate citizens of my town around this time yesterday afternoon. Anyone else experience a similar fate?

Tragic as it was I was unable to bear this incredible weather in my 100 denier black tights any longer. Enjoying a frappe-mocha-cappa-iced-raspberry-tea-sundae , or whatever it’s called, in the sun I bared my pale legs to the world.

It’s not an episode that I wish to repeat and so I promptly ordered a pair of Pretty Polly Naturals 8 denier tights, which are much more appropriate than my thick 100 denier black tights, and they’re due to be with me tomorrow (don’t forget to take advantage of our next day delivery service, more info below) so I can enjoy the rest this “Indian Summer” and bare my legs in style!

If you order any of our available products before 2pm and notify our customer care assistant of your order number by emailing customercare@cheekylegs.co.uk not only can we dispatch your item the very same day but for an additional £6.05 we can send your order to arrive with you the very next day!
