Get a Leg up this fall....with hosiery!

This season the hype over hosiery is in overdrive. Stylish A-listers have been photographed wearing everything from thigh-high's to cobalt blue opaque tights and the Fall 2011 runways even featured chic white hosiery by, none other than, Chanel.

Available in a variety of price points, hosiery is a great way to update your wardrobe without spending a lot of money. Try amping up your work wardrobe by pairing a classic pencil skirt with a modern patterned tight like the "Metallic Diamond Tights" by Simply Vera Vera Wang ($14 at Kohl's) and a strappy heel. Going out on the town? Why not update your little black dress with sheer black stockings with a polka dot and classic black pumps, or, go edgy with colored opaque tights in orange, blue, or yellow with suede booties! Want to look stylish while driving carpool, watching soccer games and food shopping? Throw on a long sweater or sweater dress (much more comfortable than jeans)with black opaque tights (I love Hanes Silk Reflections Opaque Tights Blackout Coverage, $12.00)and a great pair of boots.

Style Mavens, have fun with your hosiery this season: try different prints, colors and textures. Remember, you don't need to break the bank to look stylish and on trend.
