If You're Anti-Heels, This Is the Flat-Shoe Trend to Wear With Sheer Tights This Winter
Sheer black tights have become a true winter essential, lending a polish and a hint of allure to cold-weather dressing. They're often paired with slingback kitten heels, classic pumps, or knee-high heeled boots; however, if you're anti-heels, you don't have to count the tights out. Elizabeth Olsen just proved that sheer tights look just as chic with flats as they do with heels, wearing hers with dark-brown loafers.
While leaving The Drew Barrymore Show in NYC to promote her role in the new comedy movie Eternity, Olsen was spotted wearing a long black wool coat layered over black sheer tights and The Row's chocolate-brown tassel loafers. Her look exuded casual elegance, which shoppers, no matter how experienced, will appreciate this winter, particularly on really cold evenings when the last thing one wants to do is think about what to wear. The best part is that this pairing is highly versatile for any setting, allowing you to style sheer tights and loafers with a pencil skirt, a knit maxi dress, or even layer the tights under cropped jeans, revealing a touch of the stockings for added flair.
