Posted by juliabennet on February 15th, 2013
Wearing a pantyhose takes a lot of understanding of fashion and of what looks good on yourself. This is definitely one of the most controversial of hosiery items and the most difficult to carry off, thanks to the millions of portrayals in popular television and movies. Needless to say, therefore, that these items can be worn only when you have given them enough consideration. These items are definitely some of the sexiest garments that a woman can put on her legs; on the other hand, there can be no doubt whatsoever that they can also be some of the raunchiest garments that a woman can put on her legs. Naturally, wearing a pair of seamed stockings requires quite a lot of consideration on the part of the wearer, and it should be kept in mind that it is not just what you wear with, but how and where you wear the stockings matters a lot as well.
While seamed stockings can look really beautiful on a pair of lovely legs and carefully matched outfits, it can become a serious fashion disaster if there is anything wrong with the entire ensemble. You should understand, therefore, exactly where you can wear the various kinds; although there are a huge variety of these items available, not all of them are suitable for every skin type and every occasion. These items are pretty versatile and can be worn for a touch of glamour or for an understated look for the office. The stocking is a piece of hosiery that is highly attractive, sensual and elegant at the same time, and it depends on exactly how you can present yourself in this timeless item of attire.
• Wearing a pair of seamed stockings to the office, for instance, requires you to be understated and elegant, and fashionable at the same time. Formality needs to be maintained as part of the office decorum, so, fishnet is an absolute no-no. A pair of sheer stockings in nude tones is the best bet at hosiery at the workplace, and wearing a pair of opaque black is also a good idea. Avoid peep toes at all costs; a stockinged toe peeking out from shoes is not an attractive sight.
• Taking good care of the hosiery is also an important point that you should always keep in mind. Pantyhose have a tendency to get wrinkled and develop ladders; if this happens, it is time to get rid of the garment. The stocking should always fit snugly like second skin; a wrinkled stretch of nylon looks ugly at best.
• If you are wearing a black skirt, then avoid wearing completely black stockings to the office. This look is rather on the glam side, and it is advisable to save the black seamed stockings for the evening party or for a night at the pub.
• Stockings can also be worn with short dresses; a black or red dress, for instance, goes wonderfully with a pair of sheer black seamed stockings along with high heeled pumps or ballerinas. Keep the look sporty and fun by wearing a buttoned A-line frock with a jaunty cap; alternatively, make it super girly with a scarf around the neck and a stack of bangles on one hand.
