How To: Lace Tights
Tights play an integral part in my wardrobe during cooler months and this year, I’m positively obsessed with all of the new embellished options. Intricate textures, pretty patterns and bright colors are on my wish list and thanks to several DIY posts I’ve seen (here and here), I decided to make some of my own.
{Floral lace strips}
{Cut into different sizes}
{It’s easier to stitch if you wear the tights}
Also, be sure to check out the newest issue of Style Sample Magazine where I’m this month’s cover story.

Neat haha, I had no idea there was a magazine for fashion bloggers. what is the world coming to???
Love the tights, I don’t think I would possess the skill to DIY though…I’m prone to snag things. Oh and impatience.
What a fabulous DIY! But even more fabulous is you being featured in a magazine – and they used one of my favorite pictures of you on the cover! I have never heard of this magazine before; but I will definitely be on the lookout for it!

Wow! Is this your first magazine cover? Great post, I really haven’t thought about DIY tights before. I’m excited to read the magazine article too!
I never would have thought to sew or DIY tights. I like the lace flowers all in a row like that, I would probably leave them attached and sew the whole line onto a leg of tights.
congrats on the magazine article – it is great!!
that is so exciting Emily! congrats. love the tights too;)
congrats on being the cover story! and the tights are fab.
