Tights/stockings question

So I bought a new dress for my holiday party tomorrow. I got it a BR, it's a plain black dress that is fitted and flares at the bottom. I bought a red cardigan to wear with it, a black patent skinny belt and animal print pumps. My question is, do I wear black tights, black stockings or nude stockings??

I would like to wear black tights because I'm always freezing, but I'm not sure how they will look against the animal print. Help!

Definitely the black. I think it will look good with the animal print shoes!

maybe you can play around and see if thick blak tights would go better than sheer black tights?

Thanks so much for your replies! I'm going to try it on tonight and see how it looks. I have a couple different pairs of black tights so I'll see which one looks best. Def wear the animal print shoes, right? Instead of black pumps?

If you're going to wear the animal print shoes, I would go with regular nude stockings. But thats just me.

I still say the animal print shoes- I think the thicker black would be better, but try them out.

I think it depends on the animal print, but the black will probably work. The shoes will stand out, but I imagine that's what you are going for with animal print. Chat Icon

Tights/stockings question w/ update

Update: I tried on the outfit last night and thank god I did because the sales girl gave me two different animal print shoes!! It was the same shoe, same size, but on one shoe the animal print was outlined in black and on the other shoe it was outlined in brown! Thank god I took a close look at them or I would really look silly today. Chat Icon

Ended up wearing thick black textured tights and black patent shoes. Thanks to everyone for your replies!
