So roll on the 2nd part of the Zafiro collection I have – the previous pair were the secret shaping ones which were a total hit in my eyes. I am just hoping that these being 20 denier thinner will still be as great!

Yep it’s pretty chilly so out comes oversized jumpers; I wore my khaki batwing jumper and paired with my leopard print heels as my statement piece today. I left my hair all curly and added gold hoops to finish the look.

The Review
From The Website:
ZAFIRO
50 Den
Very soft and comfortable tight, with a matte finish
88 % Nylon (Microfibre), 12 % Spandex. Lycra 3 D
Made in Spain
The Packaging: so it’s very similar to the last Zafiro hosiery I was in (and actually it reminds me a bit of the Uppsala packaging). These are flat folded wrapped around card once you get into it, ready to get your legs in to!
On The Legs: I gotta say I am loving it. The best thing about these are that they have a slight shine to them, which I didn’t notice until the flash hit them! I have never come across a pair of shiny 50 deniers before, which is a total bonus for me!
You can now keep your legs warm and still get that great shine with your outfit!
The quality of these are once again amazing; no issues in terms of snagging or runs anywhere which is great!
The fit and feel is spot on as usual; they fit my legs really well, still had a fair bit of stretch in them too and they just felt superb. I gotta say I do love thicker deniers for that reason; they just encase your legs in this smooth wool-like finish you know!
I am still crushing on how these have shine to them; it actually do look like I have some shiny nudes on underneath which is peering through – hard to believe that it’s the pair alone!!
The funny thing is that they give the impression of a matte finish in normal lighting, but when that flash goes off, it really does become a semi-matte (actually that is questionable as well now!)
The Toes & Ankle: so to my surprise these have a reinforced toe cap to them, which makes these even better in my eyes. They cover the front and back of the toes, so long nails are safe 🙂
They have plenty of wiggle room in them and no pressure is added either.
Around the ankles as you can see, is a lovely flush finish with no wrinkles at all 🙂
The Waistband: and that smile just keeps getting better I swear! The band is to die for; it’s so comfy and you actually forget you’re wearing one with how comfortable and soft it is. I love the way it sits on the waist, doesn’t overturn on itself and just holds up the hosiery perfectly.
My Thoughts?
Bravo CdR with this pair. It’s a shame I didn’t get my hands on them sooner, but I am seriously loving these for sure. That shine is something else I gotta say, especially on thicker deniers which I love!
The quality and everything is always really good with CdR, but these really did stun me.
Stunning review in CdR tights ,thank you and have a nice day Soni!

CDR are always a sure bet never come across a pair I didn’t like plus your legs make them look even better yet. These would have to say are a must have will have to check them out to see what colors are offered.
Wow! Would never have thought of a 50 looking so sheer and perfectly shiny as they do.
They absolutely compliment those gorgeous legs of yours.
Brilliant review Miss 🙂
So, that’s what 50 denier looks like? I like it. Sheer enough to see what’s underneath, but just opaque enough to make everything look uniform. And they’re shiny. A plus.
Great review, Soni!
