Alternatively, as seen on AnnaSophia below – you can layer them with an equally textured dress for a high fashion edge. For full blown luxury lace try these hugely popular Jonathan Aston Sweet Roses Lace Tights $22.65/£14.95 or, for something a little lighter go for Pamela Mann Paisley Net Tights, $13.56/£8.95 – a look seen recently on Emeli Sandé.
