Tights are always big part of fall fashion. This fall, there’s an emerging trend that captures hearts and minds of more and more women. We see all over Manhattan young, professional women go beyond basic monochrome hosiery and opt out for flashy tights and stockings.

Colored, patterned and otherwise embellished hosiery were all over Fall 2009 runways. Naturally, there are plenty of celebrities who adopted the trend. This is quite an inexpensive accessory that instantly transforms any outfit creating bolder, edgier style. Patterned tights and stockings are versatile and can be worn with pencil skirts, shorter mini skirts, shorts and even boyfriend blazers (!).
