Leggings & stockings for this winter

What better way to keep our toes & legs warm and toasty by wearing fun and colorful leggings & stockings.

On walkways in Paris, Milan & NY eye catching leg wear was hard to miss. Colorful tights were worn by short ankle length socks, and there where rhinestones, and fishnets peeking through long flowing winter jackets.
