We Love Colors!

A few weeks ago the people at We Love Colors sent me a package full of candy colored legwear. They let me pick whatever I wanted, and thanks to the latest issue of Lula I went right for the striped tights. The hardest part was picking a color because there are over 50! I settled on Orchid Pink, because it reminds me of cotton candy :)

Now, I was really excited to find beige thigh highs in an opaque nylon, since they are something I need in the winter, warmer than regular vintage stockings, but still a vintage look. And they stay up really well without garters.

Socks are something I wear constantly in the summer, since I don't wear stockings much, so I got red, gold, and orchid pink again, this color is really pretty. I love the look of colored socks and heels, and these are thin enough to wear with them. And did I mention how affordable they are? $3.50 a pair! Next time I'm stocking up on some softer pastel colors, they have a nice version of lilac.

Along with the items I photographed, they also have mens legwear, childrens, plus sized, gloves, and dancewear, in many colors, so you can now end that search for the neon green leotard you've been looking for!

So go visit We Love Colors! Tell them I sent you ;)

I ordered a few pairs of sock of them right after I read this. Mine are a little less exciting though I got red, sky blue, maize, mint green, and dusty green.

i love we love colors. I've been contemplating getting their socks, but I'm on an online shopping ban this month, so I guess I wont be giving them a try for awhile.

Look at those legs, lady! So, where did you find your thigh high stockings that stay up so well without a garter? What brand are they? I have forever been looking for something that I don't always have to wear a garter with, and these sound pretty fabulous!

I LOVE this photo shoot.... The colors are amazing, and I love socks. I am going to visit We Love Colors right now!

I myself hate socks. I like my toes to breathe in sandals and wedges. I only wear socks and regular shoes when its pouring cats and dogs outside and needless to say, I have ruined a couple of pairs of shoes for refusing to do just that.

But these photos are amazing! The perfect blend of colors.My favorite is the one with you standing on a dresser with the stockings. (I do like stockings though : ) )

I am hate socks, but just on my feet, looks great on you!!

What fun, I haven't worn socks with heels before but you make me want to try! I'll also have to stock up on some of their tights for Autumn/Winter as I wear dresses year round despite living in Chicago.

Not only do I love the colours, but how you displayed them. Your photos are always playful or/and a little risqué - I just love them !

Love the socks and stockings, but more importantly - those green buckle up shoes with those yellow socks - I think it's shoe love :)
