What color tights with this dress?

[ijack]

I love this dress, but it's too short for work. I think it would be okay with tights, but what color tights do you wear with royal blue?

charcoal!

Yes, but not with the nude shoes you have on. You would have to wear black.
Because the dress is on the plain side, you could also do a black or grey pattern.

[ijack]

lol. I promise I won't wear these shoes

[cjeanette]

I would do patterned gray or charcoal.

Charcoal. I love royal blue + charcoal.

Also, I don't think it is too short for work!

[Pilsy]

I want your legs, ijack. And throw in your ankles while you're at it. (No creepiness intended.)

Cute dress. But I thought it was purple, not royal blue! And I vote for charcoal, too, but I think patterned would be especially fun.

There are good patterned tights and there are hootchie patterned tights...lol.
Btw, those are like a perfect shade of nude pumps. I didn't even realize you were wearing shoes until I looked again. I got the best charcoal tights from Nordstrom Rack-Hue brand. They work wonders and suck everything in. Not that you need it though.

[ijack]

you guys are sweet - I hate my knees, they are so weird looking. I'll try charcoal tights next time. I think I have some spanx ones! (which yes, I do need

[takeonyou]

I agree with charcoal.

[definitelyO]

I would agree with charcoal and I love patterened tights. like with subtle stripes in the same color. I have a pair of gray/black arglye tights that I love - but I only wear them with tall boots and a skirt so that it's not my whole leg in argyle!

[dexteroni]

Agree with the consenses - charcoal or black, and that a subtle pattern is fine. If you worked in a creative setting, you could experiment with color - mustard yellow or a ruby red bordering on pink would be pretty with that blue.

And you do not have weird knees!

[wannabe]

i crack up at the "weird knees" thing - the teen obsesses over knees too. the first thing i check out is calf muscles and if thighs touch

and you have fabulous legs, m'dear.

[LoveTrains]

I don't think that dress is too short for work. It's not too short for my work.

I really hate tights. I think they look terrible and fugly on everyone though. I don't understand the tights obsession at all.

[ijack]

this is a good knee - my knee is flabby.

[bunnysmom]

Your knees are just fine, don't worry! I'd kill for legs like yours!

I'd suggest charcoal tights maybe for work and patterned tights if you want to make the outfit more fun.

[youfancy]

Another vote for charcoal. Super cute dress too. Where is it from?

[ijack]

it's from gap, but it appears to be sold out.

[indianchica]

I just bought this dress. Plan on wearing it to work with no tights (bc it makes me uncomfortable and I need to be able to feel freedom while I teach) and I don't think it's too short. Just in case you're on the fence about its length ok-ness.

Patterned black/grey, but didn't we decide many moons ago that patterned tights of any kind were either slutty or unprofessional?

I DON'T THINK THAT, but I remember being yelled at for telling someone that they could wear that to work.

Bliss told me to wear a funky patterned tight to my job interview. :-(
