I’m tired of wearing black skirts with black tights.

What other colors can I wear?

Also, what colors really flatter medium brown skin?

Green skirts, royal blue skirts, olive green skirts, rust coloured skirts, purple skirts...
Any winter/darker colours should be fine

Basically any color skirt can be worn with black tights.
You wouldn't wear nude tights in the summer?

I dont know what size you are, but I am OBSESSED with this skirt, I have it in a bunch of colors. The plum looks great with black tights and its not a super heavy skirt. I wear it in the summer with black leggings. The charcoal and navy mix look good also. If the Dallas skirt is too big for you, look further at the Esteez skirts on amazon, its also available in smaller sizes.

This is the Dallas (larger sizes)

This is the Chicago (smaller sizes)

I totally would if they weren’t so light Sad
In Boro park yes you see all types of people here.
I basically picked up the black tights from Flatbush— where a mother herself wore black tights (I stayed at a family’s house for a full 6 weeks and they taught me basics)
but I mainly do it for tznius reasons and people think I’m xxxxxxxxxtra frum because of it lol

Can you change from black to brown tights in like one day?
I considered it...
like with brown tights you can definitely wear any color and you’d look awesome in whatever you’re in as long as it’s nice and clean

There are many shades of beige that chassidish women wear that are not so light nude.
Maybe try a taupe color?

Lol I once tried it before I married and I just didn’t like the look. I felt older than what I really am 🙈
And being short didn’t help either...🙈

Many people wear black in the winter and switch for summer. You can definitely find beige tights that are thick enough in any hosiery store anything 60+ denier

Burgundy? Maybe. I have a lot of burgundy skirts. I’m black and find that burgundy and yellow look really good on my skin. A yellow skirt might be a bit much for you (I wear them lol). Maybe also khaki-colored skirts?

And look at the price! She has different colors on her website but free shipping from Amazon. I have washed and dried this so many times, this is really the perfect skirt. Oh, and I am not even 5’1. These look great.

Find something skin color for the summer. The Jewish hosiery shops have the different shades and materials out for sampling so you can stick your hand in and see how it looks on your skin tone.

It's hard to find nude tights if "beige" isn't your color.
