ROCK’D IT BETTER: WHITE DRESS OVER DARK TIGHTS
Tuesday, September 26, 2006
For some reason a lot of stars are popping up with tights this season. Last week, Joy Bryant, Alicia Keys (she has on leggings, but you get the point) and Golden Brooks all rocked this look at various events.
I personally think they all look tacky (the tights throw it off), but who do you think rocked it the best? [SPOTTED @ YBF]

your right !
Tights are NOT a good ideal underneath a classy evening dress !
It’s Speak GHETTO (Tights)
Rhi Rhi is the ONLY person that looks good in Tights !

i don’t understand this trend, and i never will. leggings and tights need to disappear lol
mmm, i had to chose i would go with Miss Keys, because i like her red shoes, and she looks much more pulled together than Joy, or Golden.

My pick is Alicia although none really look right esp. not Golden–ewww. Also, I saw on some show that this is the new style so every celeb is doing it.
I was at the mall a while back and saw some little girls (pre-teens) wearing these really short blue jean skirts and ripped white leggings/tights. I saw a lot of this from various girls (black girls) so it looks like the youngins’ are displaying the look in their own way. Personally, it looks tacky and very raggedy.

NONE OF THEM!!! The leggings look good on Joy and Alicia should have just rock’d the dress, i still think Golden is the ultimate HAM and as a whole outift THEY ALL LOOK A MESS!!

JOY has my vote I like her dress and it being short at least she has a bit more reason that Alicia to be wearing tights (alicia’s dress is long) why bother…oh yeah cuz its “in”.

Tights are SO difficult to get off:
Let me explain: When the Mood is right, and wifey got me “heated”, Clothes are flying in all different directions…….
Man, Those Tights are like a Chasity Belt !!
You definatly CAN’T go through them, (you know what I mean), unless you have wire cutters….
Wifey always has to calm me down..”Bill, I’ll take them off, cause your about to drop me on my head”
lol

okay- and why is this even posted?? LOL!
Tights only work in the fall/winter with some nice jeans and some hot boots or something like that- NOT and I repeat NOT with some evening dresses!!
and why is golden brooks even on the “who rocked it better” list? she look like she ON THE ROCK!!! LOL!!

Joy Bryant rocked it the best. She looks really cute to me, she is so pretty and her body size looks better in it. I like A.Keys shoes but overall I so JOY B.

B`cuz the outfit`s soooooooooo ugly, i think Golden rock`ed it best since i`ve NEVER seen her lookin` decent. Joy && Alicia are TOO fabulous to wear sumn as HORRIBLE as that! Usually, they be looking nice [and still do -- SORTA ] but Golden [in my book] has won in this one cause that outfit is UGLY!!! Shit, her damn character [Maya] has better outfits than THIS!!!

I would say Ms. Keys because of her red shoes. It adds a bit of spunk…tho the thought of black tights with dress is still atrocious.

Footless tights look good with dresses, dont matter what kind. Alicia gets my vote!!! But like, u got 2 rock it right.
This fashion thing has been going on in england since like last year. Its highly unlikely u will go out in London and see nobody wearing footless tights with a dress/skirt.

I’m digging the opaque tights look that’s in this season, but these three ladies are ALL wearing it wrong.
If I HAVE to choose I choose Alicia, only because her actual dress is nicer and her hair and make up look great. Her complexion looks nice and clear too, like she just came back from a beach vacation. I usually don’t dig Alicia clothes, but she has really been stepping it up. No more throwback jerseys and fitted caps.
Joi usually looks much more pulled together, but I respect the fact that she’s always showing up on a red carpet when I can’t think of the last time I saw her in anything beside usher’s last video? Hope she’s working on something new…I like her.
Golden always looks like she just stepped out the spin cycle. At first it was funny, but now I’m actually getting worried for her…is she okay? No seriously … is she?

I don’t understand that look either; it’s a mess. However, shockingly enough, I’ll go with Golden on this one. Alicia and Joy are wearing shoes that don’t really match. At least Golden is wearing two colors that match.

Grams always told me “never wear black stockings with a white dress” or “black stocking with white shoes”.
Down here in Carolina we IS country but that’s the rule in my neck of the woods, So in my book they all look-a-mess.

For the record Angel I enjoy these posts so please keep doing them.
Anyway IF I had to choose then the HAMALICIOUS Golden Brooks wins from the neck down.
However from the neck up, Joy Bryant wins by a landslide.

LMAO @ #16
That mess don’t look good on none of them. Take that shyt off! Why would you even walk out your house thinking that looks good?
I am suprised at Alicia, cause her style is on point most of the time. I expect some mess like this from Golden.

Alicia hands down.
I like the cut of her dress better, and it covers enough of the leggings so they don’t look so annoying. Her shoes are hittin’ it and the simple pulled back hair completes the elegant look. Plus, her posture just makes the look work. Regal and majestic. The other two would probably look better if they weren’t so sloppy-looking.
Be it tacky or not, leggings have been making their way through the high-fashion circles. They’ve been popping up all over the place. It was only a matter of time…

Although I wouldn’t rock this, I think Joy looks the best, then Golden. Alicia’s dress is to “fluffy”, “puffy” looking for tights to me.

First of all, if my mother even thought my ass would even consider wearing tights with an evening dress she would bitch slap the shit out of me.
Second of all, if people are bringing back leggings, which I wore as a little girl in the 80’s and early 90’s then I’m scared to are what the fuck else is gonna come back…everybody get out your. Acidwash jeans, biker shorts and your BK’s (or LA gear)
To summarize, they all get 2 thumbs down for inappropriate use of hosiery.
