Gray Tights
Filed in: Designers, Fashion, Shopping

As broke as I am these days I have to appreciate the little things much more. Like today when I went shopping the only thing I would let myself buy was a pair of gray ribbed tights. I bought a pair similar to these only a couple of weeks ago, but only after two times use they got a hole in the crotch. The ones I got today was the pair I wanted to begin with, but they sold out for my size almost right away. Today I found one hidden between all the rest. The goal was a look like the ones from Chloè above.
I discovered something new today when buying these tights (yes, I´m milking it for all I can) and that is a fabric called modal. It´s supposedly made out of cellulose and is a lot like cotton, only it doesn´t pill, shrink, fade or any of that annoying stuff. These tights are made mostly of modal and if it´s true that they don´t pill I´ll be so happy, cause that´s my biggest issue with thick tights.
I saw similar tights at MyTights for those of you looking for something like this. (Thanks Kate.)

I don´t know, you can probably find it somewhere, I read that it was becoming more and more common. I´m excited to see if it is as good as it sounds. :)

I love the textured look. Haven’t been able to find any yet. Enjoy them!

Hvor kjøpte du disse strømpeboksene? Jeg har vært på utkikk etter noe sånt i evigheter.

Kjøpte også disse på H&M. De har bare veldig små størrelser igjen i Oslo i alle fall, men det finnes andre typer enn disse.
