Most of you who know me know that I am just nuts about tights. A lot of you who have seen me have NEVER seen me without tights! (Don't worry - I'm not about to post a picture of myself without tights....) My love affair with tights goes back a long way and there are a couple funny stories I can relate.
On one occasion when I was sharing a cabin at Camp with my sister Emi, I was in a hurry in the morning and just began to pull the tights up my legs. She let out this half-anguished cry of, "NO! Not like THAT! You'll TEAR them!" So then she spent the next ten minutes showing me how to put my tights on correctly and making me practice. BTW, she is my YOUNGER sister, too!
On another occasion I was visiting a Mommy (to me) named Nicole, and we needed to g to the store. I just threw a pair of jeans on over my tights and diaper, and I was wearing Crocs shoes - you know, with the holes in them? Anyway, in the checkout line, Mommy noticed the pink in my tights through the hols in the shoes. "Nice socks there," she whispered to me. Seeing me blush, she kept this up all the way to the car. :: Giggle ::
I have been shopping with my sister Spinner at a store that sold tights, and the guy working there seemed very worried, telling us, "Umm... those are ladies socks!" To which I replied... "No kiddin'?" :: Giggle :: And with my friend Alice we discovered a "Little Miss Matched" in Manhattan, and the girls working that store did not seem bothered at all by our shopping and our merchandise choices.
Okay - so, the commercial. I saw this on TV tonight and immediately set to search for it, and I found a great video of it (plus it is legal cause the advertiser themselves posted it!) Oh to have a drawer of tights heaven like that little girl has!
