Being mainly a skirt and dress girl, I am always purchasing tights. I hold off on wearing tights for as long as possible and this year I made it to December. Part of the reason I held off so long was because it was quite warm and also because I hadn't bought any new pairs yet. I go through many black tights each year - it's actually ridiculous. December has also proven to be super cold. Generally, Indiana doesn't experience this kind of drop in temperatures until January and February. 

So, when I watched Carly's vlog about her favorite things and she mentioned a pair of tights I could not resist looking further. Carly suggested these UNIQLO HEATTECH tights. When it comes to technologically advanced clothing I am clueless. Apparently, the tights use the moisture in the air to keep you warm. 

Survey says: they work! I wouldn't say the tights actually produce heat. They more or less just block cold air. When I took these photos the temperature was in the single digits. I was frozen. But my legs were comfortable. The best part is they have a sock foot. I'm not that uncomfortable with tights feet anyway, but now I don't know why tights are ever made any other way. For a great price of $15 I am going to be stocking up!
