Thighs, Thighs, Thighs

I've always had a soft spot for anything thigh high (nothing hookerish, please). Socks, boots, leg warmers,etc etc etc. Although thigh highs are nothing new, they still tend to catch my attention. Here are some of my favorites from the Fall 2010 runway that I have seen so far.

Alexander Wang




Alexander Wang's version reminds me of my old dance days over 10 years ago. His slightly baggy, bell bottom-ish leg warmers make me want to rummage through my old dance clothes. Mom, I hope you did not give away my old leg warmers.

Proenza Schouler



Sheer, thigh high hosiery. Something you can get at your local drug store. Nothing new, right? Very true...except for the fact that the way Proenza Schouler pairs them makes it so feminine, chic, edgy, elegant. I can't quite describe it. Lovely.

Burberry Prorsum



Snake skin thigh high boots?Yes, yes, yes! Although it was the coats that were grabbing all the attention, my eyes were glued on the boots. I love snake print and I love thigh high anything. Thank you, Burberry. Too bad I can never afford you.

Oh yeah, and Burberry has a couple of those pretty cool jackets up for pre-order. Just sayin'.

I really like the thigh high cable knit socks from Topshop. They've got this thick band at the top. Really hope they put those into production!

Thanks Lok!! I like them. The hardest part would be to decide what color because they all look nice!

I wish they were already selling something like this when I was in NY. Seems like they would be really warm.

I remember a couple years ago, they had something like this in the leg warmer version. Since I have short legs, maybe I can pull them over my thighs? Too bad I bought them for someone else =[
