Fashion Debate: Would You Wear Brightly Coloured Tights?

Coer1
Ok so it’s freezing outside, and over in NYC the skies are poised to dump a load of snow, so it is perhaps little wonder that editors and bloggers alike are looking to add a little warmth to their look. Whether you call them tights of pantyhose, hosiery is a key component of making any skirt or dress winter proof. But if you are fed up of boring opaques, should you be considering adding a little colour with a pair of boldly pigmented tights?
Traditionally we have been staunchly opposed to Crayola colours sprayed on to our legs, but this season’s new head to toe colour look – matching your shoes to your skirt to your jacket to your hat – requires the addition of correspondingly hued hosiery. To help explore this sartorial minefled we thought it might be best to set out a few guidelines:

1. Brown tights are never OK

Catherine Z-J is a big fan of chocolate legs, but we are not. Head to toe brown should be left lurking in the 70’s.

2. Anna Wintour Loves Burgundy

As sported by Anna Wintour in the gallery above is a great colour choice which will work with a host of jewel shades, including navy as well as camel and rust.

3. Red Tights Are Tricky

Red tights as worn by Charlotte Dellal are a bold choice – and definitely not the easiest to wear. We’ve spotted head to toe red on the FROW, but this look is definitely not for shrinking violets (or the red carpet – as Ms Dellal proves!)

4. Mustard’s A No-Go

Mustard tights are seemingly a thing. But we disagree wholeheartedly unless you are under 10.

5. Navy Is An Easy Way In

Navy tights are actually ok. But only if they are almost black and slightly sheer.

6. White Tights..Wowser

So there we have it. Coloured tights are not our first choice, but can look pretty cool as part of the new head to toe colour look. Just take it one step at a time people, ok?

Adebayor causes hotel problems in South Africa

images (12) 
Togo striker Emmanuel Adebayor is reportedly causing trouble in South Africa despite his team�s ouster from the tournament.
The Togo team had been staying at the plush Winkler Hotel in Mpumalanga. After getting knocked out of the Africa Cup of Nations they had a flight booked to take them back to Togo but Adebayor told some of the squad not to take it because he was going to arrange a private jet for everyone.
The players therefore didn�t check out and�the hotelwas unable to check people in who had rooms books for the night. The squad were supposed to leave on Monday but a source said �Some players were in the parking lot (of the Protea The Winkler Hotel) when I arrived. CAF did nothing wrong. They informed the team in advance that if they lost they would leave the next day, but the team is still there at the hotel.
�Togo were supposed to leave with the plane that dropped Ghana on Monday, but I�m told that Adebayor asked the players to stay because they were going to take a private jet home. So instead of going to Johannesburg first they would fly straight home. The private jet didn�t arrive and in the end the players are now stuck.�


UNAAB Students emerge one of only three African teams shortlisted in aerospace global competition

By on February 9, 2013
A student team from the Federal University of Agriculture Abeokuta have been selected as one of only three African teams to proceed to the next stage in a global competition. The other two teams are from Wits University, South Africa and A.B.E University of Nairobi, Kenya. They are among 100 student teams worldwide to go through to the second round of the Biennial global Fly Your Ideas Competition, where entrants are invited to propose new ideas that will help the aerospace and air transport industry to become sustainable and eco-efficient. The teams were selected from over 600 teams who had submitted entries into the third edition of the Unesco-backed competition. The competition had earlier been published on 234direct.
The winning team stands to win a first prize of €30 000.
The team from Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta are proposing a revolutionary Future Aircraft using Geo-Atomic Vehicular Levitation Analogy (GALEV). The team members are Tolulope Ademolu, Tosin Aina, Damilola Oderinde and Damilola Ogundipe.
The University of Nairobi’s A.B.E. team entry involves the use of engineering a bamboo, sandwiched honeycomb structure and embedded thermal-acoustic foam as a replacement for non-recyclable composite materials used in the manufacture of aircraft cabin items. The student team from Wits University are proposing a revolutionary aircraft control system, which would replace fly-by-wire technology with a hybrid visible light communication system.
Of the student teams selected, only 3% are from Africa, another 3% from the Middle East, 8% from America, 37% from Europe, and 49% are from the Asia-Pacific.
Another elimination round still awaits the 100 teams before the final five teams to present their ideas to a panel of Airbus and industry experts at Airbus, in Hamburg, Germany, on 12 June 2013, are announced. The awards ceremony will take place in Paris, on 13 June 2013, at the Unesco headquarters.
The teams now have until 12 April 2013 to explore, test and develop their concepts. While the idea remains in the hands of the students, an Airbus mentor and expert have been assigned to each team to support, inspire and challenge the competitors.
