Can I have some more...Tights Please!

Last week I got an e-mail from a lovely lass called Bernadette who works for a company called Tights Please, an on-line specialist retailer of, you guessed it, tights.

In the e-mail I was asked if I'd like to participate in a review feature; they would supply me with a couple of samples and all I had to do was to style them.

After drooling over the veritable feast of hosiery on the site, I decided that I'd be a mug not to jump on Bernadette's offer.

Not only do I get to try out some spanky new tights but I also get to go mad in the the boudoir, styling up a storm, in other words a pretty perfect way to spend an afternoon!

I was sent two fabulous pairs of tights by Red or Dead...

The tights are called Pammy & Peggy. 

Glorious Gussets indeed, they are silky smooth, gorgeously patterned & super comfy to wear.  

I couldn't wait to get styling!

First I amassed a towering pile of clobber that I thought they would look good with and then I got down to business...

Pammy tights teamed with a 90s micro mini dress,  Dear Darkness headdress & Demonia heels.

Pammy tights teamed with vintage 50s sequin top, sequin beret, arm-warmers, hot-pants, Demonia heels & tulle skirt by Max & Co.

Right: 90 leather shorts by Sisley + same as above.

Pammy tights teamed with 90s deadstock Harris tweed shorts by Jigsaw + same as above.

Peggy tights teamed with 90s Betsey Johnson polka dot dress, Demonia heels & Dear Darkness headdress.

Peggy tights teamed with vintage 50s revamped lace dress + same as above.

Right: 90s floral lace dress & hot-pants + same as above.

Left: Peggy tights teamed with a 90s Versace copycat safety pin dress by Bernshaw & 90s mega platform boots.
Rights: 80s mini dress with ribbon embroidery + same as before.

Peggy tights teamed with 90s deadstock Harris tweed shorts by Jigsaw, Demonia heels, Dearest Darkness headdress & eagle/rose print skinny Tee.

Peggy tights teamed with 90s leather shorts by Sisley and a magnificent 70s sequin disco diva jumper + same as above.

I could have gone on and on with styling these but unfortunately my afternoon came to an end.

They definitely look the bees-knees when paired together with hot-pants, cut-offs, shorts, micro dresses or mini skirts and a pair of towering heels, for best effect.

They have more YOWZA than you can shake a stick at, so perfect for the upcoming party season.

If you want a pair of Pammy or Peggy tights yourself, then why not pop over to the Tights Please website, they offer free UK delivery & they've also got some ace Henry Holland tights up for grabs in their sale section a the moment, not to mention a totally awesome array of leggings.

I'd like to thank  Tights Please & especially Bernadette for giving me the opportunity to do this product review/styling feature, it's been fun!

I hope you guys have enjoyed it too :)

Lot's of love,

Jennie

Bernshaw & Beret

The other week Lady Gaga stepped out in the iconic Versace safety-pin frock  that was originally worn by Liz Hurley at the premiere of  'Four Weddings and a Funeral'  in 1994.

In 2008 this frock was voted "the greatest red carpet gown of all time" and it certainly did great things for Liz.

Lady Gaga is a bona fide master when it comes to dressing for attention and I really dig her trademark outlandish style, however I'm really happy that she didn't team the dress with a meat hat or a taxidermy headdress :)

English label Bernshaw made a replica design of the Versace dress and thanks to eBay I was lucky enough to get my hands on one of those a couple of years ago...

I haven't as yet had the opportunity to wear it to a social occasion, it it deserves a proper occasion.

I will be celebrating a biggie-burfday in a couple of years so I may hang on to it until then ;)

Our PADI certification cards for Peak Performance Bouyancy and Navigation specialty diver came through the post today, only two more to go and we've clocked up five.

Half way to becoming Master Scuba Divers, yay :)

We still have to log twentyish more dives and do the PADI rescue diver course but that won't happen until next spring, unless I stumble upon a pot of gold or something.

Today's Ensemble:

 Vintage 50s velvet jacket, 60s day dress, 80s boots, beret with vintage brooch, patterned tights.

Mark thinks that I look like Michelle from 'Allo 'Allo! in my beret...

Listen very carefully, I shall say 'zis only once :)

Lot's of love,

Jennie
