Icy Fashionistas

I love how footless tights are so in right now. Seriously. Rarely do I jump aboard trendy bandwagons, but for this one I'm on the edge of the road with my thumb in the air, ready to hop on.

The thing is though...figure skaters have been wearing footless tights for years. They're called Mondors, my friends! And I've got them a plenty. Black, navy, nude - you name it.

For once, it seems the world of figure skating is ahead of (or even in the same time zone) as the fashion world. I hope to God this doesn't mean that feathered and sequined costumes are next. Remember that Oksana Bauil pink bird number? She wore it well, but that only belongs on the ice. Or in Vegas.
