Tights weather is here, whether or not we'd like to admit it. Although we love how black tights give us the ability to wear all our favorite dresses through the harsh winter, they should hardly be an afterthought when putting together an outfit. Since we're pretty sure you know how to keep your tights looking sleek and stylish in a winter outfit, there are a few ways to make the classic tights-and-dress combo feel fresh.

Instead of putting on tights as an excuse to wear your short party dresses out all through the winter, opt for a longer midi dress. For a cool layered look, add a chic overcoat, and for some texture, opt for subtly patterned tights. Sweaterdresses, patterned dresses, and dresses with asymmetrical hems are all good options to add interest. Click through to see the coolest ways to wear black tights with all your dresses through the colder months.
