Solid opaque tights

I purchased J.Crew’s solid opaque tights in Honey glaze. I’m buying Honey glaze everything this season . The tights fit true to size on me. The material is a litte bit thinner than my Hue tights. I think because the J. Crew tights have a 90/10% nylon spandex mix and the Hue have 87/13%. I can see through the tights very slightly around the knees. I did not have any snags while putting them on but they are thin enough that I have to watch out for my rings.

Like most tights you may want to size up for a more opaque look. Unfortunately, the tights only come in two sizes: Small/medium and Medium/long. Small/medium is listed as fiting 5’1″- 5’7″ 95-145lbs. Medium/long fits 5’7″-6’0″ 145-175lbs. Personally, if I was any taller than 5’5″ I would size up to the Medium/long unless I had very thin legs. I think J.Crew would be wise to add an additional size option on their tights.
I should also mention, these are not tights that will keep you warm in the winter. With cold weather coming up fast I was expecting these to be a little thicker. But the lighter weight means I can wear them through Spring.

The Honey Glaze is a saturated color but it is not garish, neon, or too young. I like these tights best with a pencil skirt and heels. I have thick calf paranoia, so I won’t try to pull off the Honey Glaze with flats. But I think anyone with nice legs could.
