Review: Snag Tights "Shorties" Chub Rub Shorts

It's halfway through the month (what?!) and time for an episode of Shelbee and Nancy's Good Buy/Good Bye Book. The theme this month is Shorts.

I offer you these Bad Buy Chub Rub Shorties from Snag tights.

    Why are they a bad buy?
    Reason 1:
    They are not what I expected!

Basically, they are the short version of tights. I purchased them to wear under dresses in the summer heat. These purported to be wicking and cool but they're not! They run hot! Like tights!

Road testing under an outfit to an art opening.
Fail.

Reason 2:
The bad return policy of Snag Tights 

Snag Tights' corporate headquarters is in England.
Despite the fact that my order came from a distribution center in Texas, if I want to return my extra two pairs of shorties [yes, I was overly optimistic and trying to reduce the shipping cost, as one does] I have to return them to England. And pay for the postage. That's $20! I checked at the post office. Yikes!

BAD BUY!

I am offering my two unopened pairs on Poshmark, Size F (2X, I think) if you are at all interested.
Which I doubt, after reading my rant - haha.

Crazy Legs Hit the Town!

CREATED/ PURCHASED/ LINKS/

I'm happy to announce that I finally opened my ASOS Marketplace shop.
[No longer available on ASOS. Contact me directly]
Two pairs of the Crazy Legs tights are now available worldwide.
There may be another printing in more sizes, if popularity demands it. Not sure yet.

All have sold

Here they are, packaged next to the art that inspired them

I took them out for a spin to the closing party at SCA Gallery in Pomona, where the above print was on exhibit.
There, I met up with Leslie, who came in full mod:

Put us together posing in front of art and hilarity ensues:

This morning, the torture clogs had to butt in and get the last word:

Do they match the outfit? They don't care. They just want to inflict pain.

Meanwhile, I'm linking up with Patti's Visible Monday.

Muted Monday

I'd say this is pretty low-key for me:

 same dress as last week, same tights in different colorway:

not to mention different scarf, outerwear and shoes!

I've been sitting with these tights all day and I've come to the conclusion that I can tolerate that mauve color as an accent way down on my legs but I want it nowhere near my face. So, if there's a color that you want to try, without a heavy cash outlay, you might consider trying it out on your legs. A great resource for colored tights is We Love Color -- they stock a rainbow of colors (I haven't worn them yet so can't comment on the quality).
