Leg Avenue Opaque Cross Bone Thigh Highs with Satin Bow Accent

Crossbones in black, a satin bow in light pink, and a very clear sense of humor about the whole thing. These opaque thigh highs put a skull and crossbone motif up the leg and then tie it off with something unapologetically sweet at the top.

The contrast is the point, so wear them where both ends can be seen: a short black dress, a pleated skirt, boots and a jacket. They are a Halloween shortcut that does not need a costume around it, and they work equally well as an everyday pair for anyone whose wardrobe already leans this way. Roll them up from the ankle rather than pulling at the bow. Hand wash in cool water and lay flat to dry.

Novelty print hosiery usually commits to one joke. Putting a crossbone motif under a pink satin bow gives this pair two registers at once, which is rarer and a good deal more fun to wear.
