I used to always wear tights until i discovered Sally Hansen tights in a can spray that is (best invention ever).. Before that I used to just go with natural ones from Penneys (not the sheer ones).. Some of the tan coloured ones can look a bit orangey.. I seen lately too that pennys do 3 pack of tights in lil seperate small packaging so u can take a spare in case of any ladders

Good luck with it

Definitely +1 for the Sally Hansen. I've seen friends wearing it at weddings and it's brilliant for covering up the 'corned beef' look (when your legs are blotchy from standing in the cold at Irish weddings!). Most of them wear it even when they've a spray tan done already.

If you do go for tights, the best I've used are Falke Shelina ones. They're €10 in Brown Thomas. Which sounds a lot but they're the only nude tights I've used that make it look like you're not wearing tights, and don't ladder easily so you get a good few wears out of them.

I wouls think dark tan tights would go well with that colour dress. I saw a friend of mine at a function in something similar recently and it looked a million dollars.

If you go for tights over tan, the Marks and Spencers Oiled tights are great. Very natural looking.

Tan tights would look best. Have fun at the wedding (:

I wish there was a pale alternative to Sally hansens, maybe MAC body foundation but its pretty expensive
