There's an official switch in America? I see people wearing all types all year


Yes, there is an official switch over in America. I just never seem to get the memo…
It’s funny because my European neighbor who is very trendy and well dressed often seems to wear the wrong color tights for the weather. I guess in Europe it’s not a thing.

In Lakewood do the unofficial official rule is lag baomer Shavous. I personally think it ridiculous to wear black when it’s 80’! Go by the weather please!!

Based on my view of the weather, with Sunday still being cold, I'll be switching over to nude on Monday next week. I don't like switching back and forth so after pesach I look at the 10 day forecast and decide when.

Thanks! I guess I was confused and thought the unofficial rule was pesach.
I don’t think black tights is any warmer than nude tights but black tights doesn’t match with some of my summer clothing so it would look funny.
Anyway, I changed! I am currently wearing a black skirt with a black and white summer top. I switched into black tights. Feels better.
I’m home most of the day anyway aside for carpool and shopping with my daughter later so I don’t think it matters much what I wear today.

It’s a Lakewood thing , idk why it is but until almost June, majority stay in black tights. Personally I think it’s silly and I am in nude today because it’s hot but every year I laugh how even when it’s hot lots of Lakewood ladies don’t make the switch.

Caring about what others do is even more ridiculous. There's no rule

Every year the family chat at this time of year, the family chat is full of, 'do I HAVE to wear nude'? I don't get it.

Black is more comfortable and nicer looking unless you have good legs. so I don’t switch till I have to. I’m thinking of getting long skirts.

Because with cleaning up from pesach and turning the kitchen back over and restocking the house and kids home for isru-chag they didn’t have time to shave.
