Like a great TV guest star, the right legwear can pull an outfit together without stealing the spotlight. This season, it's thigh-highs that are lending stylish support, whether they're cozy cable-knit numbers or cheeky collegiate ones. Speaking of scene stealers, if you're worried about looking like Rachel Berry from Glee, wear them with flat boots or brogues - and definitely skip the kilt.
