Jubilee fever

God bless the queen.  She gave us a long weekend, and goodness, I don't know what else she's done but this has got to be one of her greatest achievements.  Mind you, I was studying the whole time (exam tomorrow, eek).  How this relates to my outfit post is that the queen is ENGLISH and the whole world is just in jubilee fever, and it just happens my dad went to London and bought me some Vivienne Westwood tights!  You can sort of see that's what the letters spell.  I got some socks as well (thanks dad!).  It was a really cold day, very blustery and English, and I wore my little ferret tail thing (fake, believe it or not) in honour of Vivienne's craziness and not-give-a-shit-what-anyone-thinks.  Toodiloo my friends.

I am obsessed with coloured tights at the moment.  Why go with black when you can make it interesting and unique by adding a new colour into your outfit?
In images 1 and 2 you can see the coloured tights look being utilised by my favourite designer duo, Meadham Kirchoff.  I particularly love the yellow coloured tights in images 3 and 4, and I think image 5 is really interesting in that the tights are the same colour as the shoes.
Hit up Sportsgirl, Topshop and American Apparel if you're looking for tights in a new hue (also note my hilarious use of assonance).
