I was saddened to see footless tights on sale at Urban Outfitters, as it could be interpreted as a sign of the coming fashion apocalypse. These un-socks, since there exists no better term to describe them, are ugly. They might not look that bad on the catologue's model, but have you seen them on a real person? It's not a good thing. Lindsay Lohan's attempts to bring back bike shorts in a non-workout context were bad enough, but we have to draw the line somewhere. And it's not going to be drawn in nylon just below the knee.
