I don’t often write a “Very Best of” post, but it’s just what we need right now. Now is the season of chilling nights and fading light. Plenty of people, myself included, find Winter beautiful, but it’s not much fun when you throw its discomforts into the mix. Now, you could wear jeans, but you’d [...]

Okay folks, enough of this tomfoolery, our Halloween competitions have been a blast, but now it’s dreary November and Winter is upon us. How awful! But today I’m here to talk about one key item you’ll definitely need in order to survive the impending Ice Age. The Robust Winter Coat! Take a look at [...]

I couldn’t give you the offer of the week yesterday, as it was the world’s most important holiday! Halloween was unbelievable! I carved two pumpkins. One was a zombie, one was President Obama. Fun times! But yesterday was still Monday, and an offer for you is still available, so here it is and it’s a great one! [...]

I doubt the sombrero and poncho will be making a return this year. If you don’t know what that means, take a look at this post, and start experiencing the magnificent tapestry that is the UK Tights Blog! Every Halloween, I dress as some weird character or an alternative persona. Last Halloween it was a Mexican Bandito. One of my favourite [...]

More Winter blogness for you today! And yet another revival of a classic pattern. Well, I use classic very loosely. You may remember this particular arrangement and colour scheme from such embarrassing encounters as dinner with strange maybe-relatives, inebriated out-of-tune singing and standing on Tonka trucks in bare feet. Yes, it’s the classic Christmas sweater! Now you might [...]

This will depend very much upon where you live, but I think now is the time to start talking about Winter proof clothing. I mention this because of my frustration at Augustus, the company mascot. He stood in the open doorway of my house today, refusing to step into the rain, lest he smell even more [...]

It’s kind of one thing, but it’s also… not. Oroblu Karmen, it’s another one of Italy’s magnificent fashion tights for Autumn and Winter of 2011.

I think this might be my last Trasparenze review this season. There’s so much to see from their range, but I’ve tried to pick out only the most stunning designs, lest I get too carried away. So, I’d like to finish with one of their strongest pieces this season and then, if it pleases my [...]

“Who is this guy? He looks familiar.” “I dunno, but he’s keeps sending me blog posts by email.” “Should we tell him to go away?” “Nah, let’s just see what he does. Who knows, he might say something funny in a minute.” I apologise about my publishing schedule. It’s been a few weeks since my last [...]

Our internet connection is down and I’m totally lost without it. Here I sit in the dim dank of our Cheshire-based cloisters, scratching away on my rolls of parchment with a quill. The only light in this dreary pit comes from a single candle and a ray or two from a hole in the dry-wall. [...]
