Baby steps to mortgage freedom for beanielou.

Not a clue about the tights, but loving the idea of the jewellery!  The fall and the toilet seat, though ... horrible.  And it actually sounds really dangerous in a bathroom, hope you're okay.

It was very scary acually.  I was so so lucky.

Quick question my friends.
Are coloured tights a thing these days? 
Ta.

I'd say yes.  I don't actually have any but I would wear them.

In August they (coloured tights) were - this article includes links to the best suppliers (in their review) - I certainly see things on my Faceache feed. Personally I always bought a size larger and that usually gave me something my "heavy legs" could get into. Support tights made me feel less constrained. Apart from the 8 or 10 pairs in a box in my wardrobe (bought maybe ten years ago, when I still wore frocks, and still in their packaging, and all black) I don't have any. Mine were all M&S but they only do Black, cream and nude.

I love patterned tights Beanie - and keep looking at the adverts on Social Media for the Sn@g people - there stuff looks amazing! 

Sorry to hear you fell again - thank goodness the toilet seat is the only thing that's properly broken, it's easier to fix than you would be. xx

Thank you so much everyone.
I am pondering.
I want the colour to tie in with a long cardigan I am wearing over my dress.
Thanks @Suffolk_lass for sharing that fantastic list.  Appreciated

I am glad to hear your mums party arrangements are coming along . Sorry to hear of your bathroom fall and broken toilet seat. 

As for the coloured tights , a lady at work on Wednesday was wearing a lovely mustard coloured pair and they were from who EH mentioned the sn@g people.

Yay woop to new car, sorry to hear about the fall and the toilet seat.  Re coloured tights, I haven't tried them myself yet but Sn@g get rave reviews from several friends on our style group.  Otherwise it depends what colour you're after - I've picked up thick opaque burgundy and teal in the shops in winter, but not usually anything more adventurous.

Beanie, I have several pairs of coloured sn@g tights and I like them.

I usually struggle with tights not being long enough but if I go for a longer length then they’re too long! But the sn@g ones are a good fit for me and don’t roll down around the waist either.

I think I have raspberry, burgundy, purple, mustard, bottle green, red and some blue ones too. I went through a bit of a coloured tight buying phase. 😂

Glad the jewellery and the party is going well.  Sorry about the fall.

Coloured tights are definitely a thing!
