Where to get good tights??

Subject: Where to get good tights?? Sat Oct 15, 2011 10:06 am

I need some new warm tights for Izzy ... but I am quite picky lol

I only like ones with shaped feet and heels (M&S tights are gorg but I HATE the tube-feet that do not fit in shoes properly so refuse to but any more)
I like Sainsburys - but there is such a huge difference in leg size, the 18-2 are too small for her, but all the 2-3yrs I have bought for her are still way too big on the foot, even though the leg fits..so again don't fit nice in shoes

I think the best are Debenhams (bluezoo) which seem to fit nicely...and not a bad price at £9 for a pack of 3.

So do you know anywhere that does good tights like what i want, or should I just stick with the bluezoo ones?! I can't buy online cos I dunno what the feet are like and I'd rather not go round ALL the shops checking thier tights lol...so please help..Izzy needs tights!

After trying the ones in pretty much every shop (!) i have settled on John Lewis, they have loads of colours, are nice and soft and have been washed loads and do not go bobbly and thin. Yes they have shaped feet too!

Me and Imogen are like that too. So annoying isn't it.

t drives me crazy, all trousers are meassive on her yet she grows aout of her vests in the blink of an eye. SHes in 3-6 month vests yet shes only 11lb. She would have to be awkward lol x

Lisa, what about Next, I'm always pleased with how their tights fit Bethany and have never had any problems. I got a pack of 3 the other week for £10.00 x

I've not so far this year but ask me again after a few more washes...lol.
Can't remember if they have in previous years.
I had a nosy on the John Lewis website and saw some gorgeous ones there, may have to order some.

I don't need any new clothes for Izzy, she has way too much already..have only been looking for vests and tights....but I have a basket full now of all sorts on Le Redoute, Debenhams and now John Lewis too....this is not good!

Subject: Re: Where to get good tights?? Sun Oct 16, 2011 8:28 am

Lisa, I have had to come out of the website as I was tempted to order far too much. Happy shopping!! xx

Well Pinky, I didn't like to say........lol x

Subject: Re: Where to get good tights?? Sun Oct 16, 2011 8:37 am

hahah I have issues too.

I KNOW Izzy has way too many clothes seeing as I can have 4 loads of washing in the utility room and she still has enough clothes to last at least a week..she has 2 rows of clothes rammed in her wardrobe, plus 3 large drawers full and some small drares too...and thats without everything being hung up
Yet I buy a stuff every week.....not good

Subject: Re: Where to get good tights?? Sun Oct 16, 2011 8:46 am

i've bought stuff 2-3 years even though avas just gone into 12-18 months , i'm sure boys are a lot easier to buy for

Subject: Re: Where to get good tights?? Sun Oct 16, 2011 9:08 am

^ boys are easier cos you just get cords, jeans, joggers or sometimes dungarees in either brown, blue or olive!!! it gets boring as hell though

Subject: Re: Where to get good tights?? Sun Oct 16, 2011 6:53 pm

I normally get Next tights, but I have never even looked to see if they have shaped feet... it will be on my list today when I get some x
