What's your opinion on them?

Personally, I like them. I think it's a great way to add a little character to an outfit. I think they'd look great under shorts, but that's just my opinion. I saw a couple of nice colours at H&M recently, thinking about getting them for the summer!

I haven't tried out the H&M ones yet, but for $4.90 a pair, you might as well try them out?

The only coloured ones i have are teal and red though, both american apparel. I also have black and white ones.

My sister also has a pair of yellow ones that she totally pulls off.

I love coloured tights! I don't wear them right now though because I'm not sure I can pull it off. But I'll probably buy some this summer and I'll definitely check it out at H&M since the price is so good.

i have about 6 pairs of colored tights from h&m.
they are from the kids section, but i think theyre pretty good quality,
as i haven't gotten a run in them, and i normally do after one wear.

Coloured tights = adorable.
Coloured leggings = no thanks.

But I rarely find yellow tights pretty. I like purple and red the most.
I have leggings with a denim print, I like those as well, but not as actual pants of course.

I love colored tights, but I don't really like colored leggings. I just have always preferred tights over leggings anyways.
My fave colors would be red, navy, purple, grey, and burgundy.

^So true. Tights are more flattering for any type of body.

I agree that tights are much more versatile than leggings.
Tights seem more sophisticated than leggings.
Tights can go with almost everything...
Leggings, on the other hand, are more casual and only certain people can pull them off.
