You really can’t beat a good pair of opaque black tights! With so many to choose from, it can be a struggle, but some of the MyTights team have picked out their favourites to give you a helping hand…

1. Falke Seidenglatt 70 denier Tights

‘I never normally wear plain black opaques as they are a bit subdued for me, however if I do it i always wear Falke Seidenglatt 70 as they feel just amazing and have a wonderful glossy shine to them – just a joy to wear’ ~ Laura, Founder

2. Pretty Polly 60 denier Opaque Tights

“I’m 5’10”, and not exactly skinny either, and can find it hard to get tights long enough but these fitted perfectly.  Cheap as chips but still really great quality, everyday tights.” ~ Emily, Press

3. Wolford Velvet de Luxe 66 denier Tights

“I love Wolford the brand, they are always really durable and they fit really well. They’re really luxurious – I feel really special when I wear them!” ~ Krys, Dispatch

4. Falke Pure Matt 100 denier Tights

“I love these, they are the most opaque I’ve found yet, and they have a really smooth finish! Not the cheapest, but definitely worth it!” ~ Suzanne, Marketing

5. Aristoc Polished 50 denier Tights

“I liked the shiny effect, look super funky and feel super nice” ~ Sophie, Customer Service

Opaque tights are a staple item for many women, but if you prefer the natural fleshy coloured leg-look, we have some fab Pamela Mann nude opaque tights as well as a huge selection of black opaques!

Top Ten Ways to Slim Up with Shapewear

Summer is one of those seasons that you hate to love but love to hate. Finally the sun is shining and cute studded sandals and big sunglasses are all the rage.

All you can think of is summer fun and beachside cocktails. But you’re also anxious, because summer means the time to get out those bikinis and little mini dresses to hit up the trendiest clubs in the least amount of coverage possible. What if you simply don’t have the body of Kate Moss?

There’s a quicker solution to a bikini-fit body than hitting up the gym after work every day. This method is as easy as putting on a pair of socks, quite literally, and will work wonders with no labor required! Of course, we’re talking about the wonders of shapewear.

Here we’re going to delve into the ways shapewear can slim up your figure instantly and what the best products are so that you get the look you want. It’s time to look hot without those lame workout regimes! Read more of Top Ten Ways to Slim Up with Shapewear

On-trend women’s tights can help nail an office outfit

When it comes to dressing for the office, we all know that it’s important to look polished and professional.

However, this need not mean allowing fashion to pass you by – and women’s tights can help to liven up some of this season’s hottest looks.

According to the Daily Mail, the nautical colours of navy and white – currently huge on the catwalks and in the shops – will make you look instantly smart, but white tights and funky flat shoes will take the outfit from potentially prim to young and vibrant.

Meanwhile, adding black opaque tights to a neutral jacket and skirt can add a chic safari look to early summer dressing.

Finally, the piece stresses that dressing as though you mean business no longer means relying solely on power trouser suits – instead a tailored skirt with a smart jumper can do the job just as well.

However, don’t forget the finishing touch – women’s tights in a contrasting colour with platform heels will add instant interest.

German company Falke offers some great examples of the tights mentioned above – check out MyTights.com for a better look.
