Love leggings up here n the freezing northeast. If you think Atlanta is cold you need to come to Buffalo! 😉
Heheheh NOPE! I think i would literally freeze!!! HAHAHAHAH
The ASOS Curve tights are great – I’m 5ft10 with horrendously long legs so I buy them a size bigger than normally needed to prevent any of the saggy crotch thing go on! I’ll be stocking up on their heaviest denier before my trip to Boston in January!

NICEEEEE! Thanks for sharing and have you heard of teggings, those would be amazing for your Boston trip! These are like leggings with a fleece inside or heavier type of tights!
This is my issue as well. I’m 5’11 and a plusie. Hate the hanging crotch. Will check them out Thx!
you can get some nice ones at Ashley Stewart also…they always have sales
Ohhhh I never checked there! thanks for this!
Don’t knock Walmart, just scored two pair that fit perfectly for the low low.
Nods head in quick approval! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
I went to Walmart. The Just My Size ones Fit but were a little short. The George brand in a size 4 wouldn’t come past my knees. The 3rd pair I Bought I haven’t tried yet. No avenues in the local area so I’m going to have to plan a trip. I just hate that I can’t return them if they don’t fit. This can’t get expensive. Curvation brand is only sold at Kmart but they never are stocked up in the size I need. So frustrated cuz I want fancy/sexy print for my date next week
In the pic with the 4 ladies standing. What tights/hose is the blonde on the right wearing? The ones that are to her ankles. Thanks!
For someone like me who’s a wearer of traditional stockings, the go-to place is EssentialApparel.com who stock Berkshire’s “SexyHose” range in all sizes. A very reasonable $9/pair when you buy three, and free shipping “specials” are regularly offered!
Thanks you for the tip!
