Modern vintage style with tights





Retro is a culturally outdated or aged style, trend, mode, or fashion, from the overall post-modern past, that has since that time become functionally or superficially the norm once again. The use of "retro" style iconography and imagery interjected into post-modern art, advertising, mass media, etc. It generally implies a vintage of at least fifteen or twenty years. For example, clothing from the 1980s or 1990s could be retro.

 Would you believe I bought these tights from Farmers for $3 - as they only lasted one wear it seems you do in fact get what you pay for!  To be fair to the tights I am a hard wearer and the only ones that seem to last for me are opaques.  I've heard the tricks about clear nail polish to stop runs, etc but I just don't seem to be able to make stockings last.
