As anyone who likes wearing skirts and dresses in the winter will tell you, tights aren’t really optional—they’re a necessity. Luckily, they make your outfits look significantly chicer than they would otherwise. And if you’re like me and get tired of wearing black tights over and over and want some non-black tights inspiration, you just clicked on the right link.
This will come as a shock to no one (no one who follows fashion, at least), but the chicest, easiest alternative to black tights is chocolate-brown tights, and Elsa Hosk, one of the most well-dressed It girls on the planet, just wore a pair. She styled them with a fur-trimmed parka from her line Helsa and the shoe trend that I predict you’re about to see paired with brown tights at every fancy winter occasion and night on the town: satin shoes. Specifically, Hosk wore brown satin mules by Alaïa, but any (preferably brown) satin shoes will do.
To see how stunning the brown-tights-and-satin-shoes combination is, keep scrolling to see the look Hosk recently posted to Instagram, and shop the combination to wear with your own skirts and dresses (or long coats, à la Elsa Hosk).
