What I'm Wearing: Purple People Eater

Hello lovelies! Are you all getting sick of my hosiery collection yet? I feel like I live in tights/leggings in the winter. Wearing dress pants gets boring to me and I feel like I have more options with skirts/dresses and fun hosiery. Do you have something you have an extensive collection of? My other two ridiculous collections are shoes and belts. I don't even want to know how many I have. I might be embarrassed by it.

So, in some of these photos my tank and tights look bluish, but I swear they are purple. I haven't wore a lot of purple this winter and I feel that is a shame. It is such a beautiful color and a great alternative to black or navy! I paired a colorful mini skirt with a basic tank, flowy sweater, flower embellished belt, purple tights, a simple necklace and suede boots.




Sweater: Maurices, Tank and Belt: Charlotte Russe, Skirt: JC Penney, 
Boots: Bass Outlet, Tights: Hue, Necklace: Second Chance Consignment


What do you think of this look?

    If tights ever go out of style, you and I are screwed! I bet you too are guilty of planning an outfit AROUND hosiery.

    Last photo is delightfully lovely! I have an astounding collection of hosiery too...4 pairs of gray tights, mustard, green, lavendar, houndstooth, black, red, cream cable knit, 3 browns, tan, sheer pink, you get the picture ;) I love the variety you can create during winter by wearing tights too...so they're worth it! Plus I always buy ahead with tights clearances at the end of the year :)

    I pretty much gave up on jeans over the summer but I'm back in them now, during the winter. For me, I don't have too many leggings and tights that are good enough to keep me warm.

    Love the colour pallette of the outfit, the purples, blues and grays go beautifully with your skin tone and hair colour. The knit looks so warm..
