Little Miss Mommy's Wish List Week 2: Brilliant Basics…take 2!

I'm not big on hosiery for the sake of hosiery. Note: you will never see my rockin' a pair of "nude" hose just to appear lady like in the sweltering heat of summer.

But, come winter, I absolutely swoon for a pair of great patterned tights or leggings! And, they are definitely on my Christmas List this year!

Check out this pair of ultra-feminine tights from Anthropologie. I love the dainty pattern that highlights the length of your lovely gams, but is still subtle enough to pair with a patterned dress!

And these TopShop options — the Glitter Dot and All Over Heart — are too cute for words.


This diamond-patterned pair from Urban Outfitters is a modern twist on a classic design. I recommend the navy — it’s great way to wear this season's blue and black trend.
