All about the Layers: Meghan Trainor

Meghan Trainor
Meghan Trainor and her fabulous tights!
Bursting onto the scene in 2014 with perhaps the catchiest song of the decade, the domination of All About That Bass singer Meghan Trainor doesn’t look like it’s about to end anytime soon. Currently sitting pretty at the top of the album charts with her debut collection (and that’s no mean feat), this week saw Meghan being noticed not only for her tunes, but for her fashion choices, stepping out at a Sam Smith concert in a pair of chic sheer tightswith inbuilt knee high sock.
Opting for an all black ensemble which showed off her curves perfectly, the star paired her tights with a leather look skater skirt, black sweater and strappy heels. Proving that wrapping up from the cold doesn’t always mean you have to revert to a pair of trusty black opaques, we think Meghan looked fabulous, mastering the trend for layers and undoubtedly saving herself some time in the process. If you love her A-list look, the good news is that you can easily recreate it with the collection at MyTights, and even more music to your ears… without the A-list price tag.

For a great style replica, head to Pretty Polly and their fabulous Modal Secret Socks Tights. Near on identical to Meghan herself, these 20 denier matte tights have an inbuilt 60 denier sock, finishing just below the knee. Not restrictive in any way, the sock sits comfortably on your leg, appearing like regular knee highs with their mock band and opaque finish. It’s really up to you how you style them – great for creating a flirty look à la Trainor, you could also just use them as an extra layer behind knee high boots.
If your outfit is in need of a little update, Pretty Polly has created a similar style, but this time with a patterned sheer panel above the sock. Perfect for completing your black skater dress and peep-toes combo, the Pretty Polly Pattern Modal Secret Socks Tights come with an attractive diamond design from the brief downwards, lifting your look and merging into a 60 denier sock at knee height.
Should you want just that little bit more coverage, open your eyes to the wonders of suspender tights. Similar to Meghan in that they combine both sheer and opaque panels for a chic contrast, the pick of the pack are the Henry Holland Super Suspender Tights. Finishing around the mid thigh, the opaque section makes way for a 20 denier panel at the top, complete with mock suspender straps and belt for a look on the right side of sultry!
Keep the fantastic legwear coming, Meghan!
