Purple Tights!

February 22, 2014July 9, 2014 Corinne 47 comments
Purple Tights!
Dress: ASOS
Tights : Tesco
Shoes : ASOS
Watch/Bracelet : Christmas Gifts
There’s nothing like a pair of colourful tights to brighten up an otherwise boring dress. Purple is always my favourite, I have a few pairs of tights in this colour!

My hips are massive in these photos, childbearing hips, see. It’s because I’m pregnant. Actually no, I’m not pregnant, I’m just big boned. I am unable to trick anyone into even having a relationship with me, let alone giving me a baby. Let’s cry. Then get some cats. 
 
I don’t think I have really posted pictures of these lovely gifts I got for Christmas. My mum got me the watch and my Aunt got the matching bracelet. 
It’s Saturday – so don’t forget about #socialbloggers twitter chat at 6pm GMT!
If you missed last weeks chat about blog design, don’t forget to check out the roundup!

    Oh gawd, I miss Tesco tights so freaking much! Tights over here cost a minimum of 12 dollars, when you can get like 6 pairs for 5 pounds in the UK!! I dont know why Im rambling about tights right now lol

    Oh childbearing hips, the bane of my life, especially as I don’t want children! It’s like nature decided to have a laugh that day.

    Love the way that tights can jazz up a black outfit. I’m far too dull to wear coloured tights but they look awesome.

    I love your purple Tesco tights, your Asos dress and your figure! Sorry if I seem like a bit of a lecher, but I think your figure is fabulous. Additionally you’re sweet, pretty, intelligent, and funny. If there is anyone who would not want to have a baby with you they must have some kind of mental defect. Oh, wait, I forgot. Most humans are mentally defective, especially the males of the species. I ought to know. I have those defective “Y” (male) chromosomes. Getting back to your outfit, your ASOS dress looks very classy and shows off your lovely figure well. I like the buttons, the waist and the white collar. The purple hosiery is very pretty too. I think pinks and purples are very much in vogue for this coming Spring and Summer. I hadn’t decided what I’m doing this weekend yet. Maybe I’ll work on my next overdue post (no new one yet, sorry) and maybe try to follow some of the #socialbloggers Twitter chat. 🙂

    I am a big tight fan as well especially when the weather turns cold. I also love wearing tight when I am feeling swollen. I feel like it kind of helps me to suck everything it haha. While most of my tights are dark coloured, I do own some bright ones like purple (like yours) and deep red 🙂

    You are hilarious! And I don’t think your hips are big at all. In contrast, your waist looks so small in these pics! I think purple tights are my favorite of the colored tights. You look great!

    haha you do NOT have big hips! and i love that unexpected pop of color with those tights. I have about a dozen colored pairs but always forget to wear them :/ This post inspired me to reach for them a little more often. And lovely gifts, that’s such a pretty watch!

    I love tights of all colors, and yes, I have a purple pair, too! And I do have the slightly wider hips too, which my husband ALWAYS calls “Child-bearing hips” and I think he loves using those words for whatever reason

    You look lovely and I don’t think you have large hips at all. Enjoy what you are now, when I look at pictures of me when I was younger, I think I was so stupid focusing on what was wrong with me whereas there were also very good things! (and believe me, I felt so fat after giving birth to my twins that it gave me a lot of perspective).

    Ha ha, funny about the pregnant thing, though your hips don’t look big to me!! By the way Corinne, forgive me for being the rudest if the rude! You left me SUCH a helpful comment about my blog url issue (and another nice comment) and when I’ve tried to leave a comment back after reading them, my internet has dine its usual stupid thing of freezing or timing out on a,comment and I’ve got so annoyed, I’ve given up. Then forgotten about it. Which is just plain rude and forgetful of me. But thank you for your advice, I’ll definitely investigate a url at some point! Incidently, it was seeing your comment on Sophia’s blog that reminded me. I saw Corinne and thought, “oh no!!!” So hopped over here.! Enough grovelling, that’s a super dress and yes, purple tights rock!!! X
