Know What's Irritating?

When you buy a super damn cute pair of grey and black cheetah print tights - nonrefundable because it's hosery - and then when you try them on (keep in mind the packaging is "one size: fits 4'9" to 5:7" and 90-130lbs" and you're well within that) and can literally pull them up until the waistband is sitting OVER YOUR NOSE.

What. The. Fuuck.

Um... definitely not. They're quite sheer. But it was laughable. I looked like al cheetah print sausage with blonde hair.

LOL

too bad, those do sound like they would be really cute tights

Damn sheer tights. If only they were more opaque. Instead I shall just imagine it...and yes, I'm laughing out loud at my desk.

Seriously though, that sucks, I'm sorry they didn't fit.

1) YOU SHOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO BUY CHEETAH PRINT TIGHTS BECAUSE NO ONE SHOULD EVER EVER MAKE THEM.

2) You're 2 feet tall.

3) This is one of those deals where it just wasn't meant to happen.

They're cute! Honest!

Bahahaha. They'd be really cute with a black pencil skirt, grey sweater and black heels. IF they fit. Gah. *cries*

I'm outside of the height requirement or I'd have said to send them to me!

I always have the opposite problem, where the crotch of the hosiery is nearly at my knees.

You're stylish, are you sure you can't turn it into a hot cheetah print tube top catsuit?  Cuz that would be HOT.

I could probably wear those tights as a glove...

For ONE arm...

Bahahaha. I think they're defective. I'm almost sure of it. When I say "too long" I mean the torso part is literally nearly three feet long from crotch to waistband. It's almost as long as the leg portion is.

Well, I might have a picture of Alix in these cheetah print tights. Cuz I'm outside her window stocking her.

Get it?  stocking?  cuz it's hosiery? 

Moneypenny424

Hmmm...in that case, catsuit with a fold over top?  It just keeps getting better .

alixzafiris

You guys are hilarious.

B I think I spy you.

Uh, Alix, any chance those are maternity tights or something? 

alixzafiris

Definitely not

They were made for drag queens who lie about their weight.  It's the only answer.
