Could black tights complete office outfit?


As the summer approaches, ladies may be keen to revamp their work wear wardrobes and get it ready for the warmer weather.

However, while money is still tight, they could find they have the perfect outfits for spring simply by teaming some of their summer clothing with a pair of black tights, which could give a feminine look edge which sees women taken seriously in the workplace.

Using women's hosiery could be the perfect way of adding a modern twist to last year's clothes and could see ladies conserving some valuable cash to put towards getting their work wardrobe ready for the summer.

Summer fashion in the workplace


Ladies in a quandary over what to buy in the coming months that will still be stylish when summer comes have been offered some valuable tips by one fashion expert.

Shelly Vella, fashion director at Cosmopolitan, says the label Celine from Phoebe Philo is particularly worthy of attention and has already had a profound effect on the high street, being both smart and sophisticated.

For the perfect office wardrobe, Ms Vella recommends trousers and skirts in monochrome are worth investing in, as these can then be dressed either up or down depending on the occasion.

Meanwhile, trouser suits are perfect for the changing seasons as women can choose a top to go with them which best suits the weather that day, she adds.

"There are a lot of pinafore and shirtdress type options, you can either layer those up [...] A shirtdress is one of my favourite options for smart work wear dressing because it's a dress and it's also quite smart, as long as it's not the kind of cotton that creases," Ms Vella advises.

If wearing a pretty shirtdress or pinafore, women could add a little edge by pulling on a pair of black tights and boots.

In addition, women's hosiery can ensure that ladies stay warm, even if they are wearing a frock in a light, summery material.

Summer fashion gets tough


Back tights can be the perfect women's hosiery with which to toughen up a feminine outfit.

Adding edge to girly clothes will be a major trend this summer, with InstyleUK predicating military will be particularly popular.

While the look was in vogue in 2009, this year the look should be teamed with sequins and shredding to give it a new aesthetic, the magazine claimed.

It added tattered t-shirt, bullet belts, stained, worn or holed jeans, raggedy suede and leather miniskirts and sequined or patchworked camouflage will all be in vogue.

Layering military jackets over ripped jeans or a summer dress with black tights could be a good look to adopt over the summer months. Indeed, layering may be advisable, with Positive Weather Solutions forecasting a varied season of above average temperatures and sunshine, along with patchy rain, light winds and thunderstorms.
