teal steal

45 comments

I explored a little op shop near my new neighbourhood for the first time, after catching a glimpse of it one day on the tram. Although I didn't find much amongst their piles of jumbled knick-knacks, and even thought a lot of their things were overpriced, I did score these amazing pair of teal tights for $1! I love them! I'm sure I can get plenty of wear out of them as autumn is fast approaching in this corner of the world. I'm also glad that this dress that I had put up for sale on eBay last month didn't sell (I guess it wasn't meant to be!), because now I think I'll be getting a lot more wear out of it too - seeing that it goes pretty well with the tights!

i bought a pair of teal tights right after Christmas but I just can't seem to pull the right outfit together for them. Your florals look great!!

Emily, Resplendent Tranquility said...

Ooh, your teal tights are great, Anna! So rich and pretty. Isn't it funny how things work out? You wanted to sell the dress and it didn't sell. You find tights (at a great deal, too!) to match said dress and voila, new outfit possibilities :)

Esse said...

I love colourful tights! I have so many of them like these ones, yet I hardly wear them anymore. This has inspired me to actually wear them.
