When in doubt, wear pattern tights with a simple dress or skirt and let the tights be the focal point of the outfit. However, if you want to wear pattern tights with another pattern, follow the rules below.
1. One pattern should be bigger, or more dominant, than the other pattern.
2. One pattern should be geometric, such as stripes, dots, diamonds, triangles and so on, while the other pattern should be something that's moving - the two patterns should be opposites, but still complement one another.
Sheer black nylons are dated. The best option is to choose a sheer nylon with a little detail on it - stars up the back on the leg, (which is what is shown in this video), a pattern up the side, baby fishnets, (which look sheer from far away), or even sheer nylons with small dots would be a fabulous option.
