With so many different types of hosiery out there, and so many different types suited for different occasions, organizing hosiery can quickly become something of a must-do. At Hosieree.com, we have fine hose of all shapes, sizes, colors, and makes, and we also know how difficult it can be to keep vast hosiery collections organized in a way that keeps them protected and easy to find when you need them. When it comes to organizing hosiery, keep both the ease of use and the protection aspects in mind, and you can always reach for just what you need and just when you need it!

The first step in organizing your hosiery is keeping it safe while it’s stored, and we’ve found that one of the best ways to do this is to keep your fine hosiery in its original packaging as a means of storage. What this will do is allow too much oxygen to be kept from direct exposure to your hosiery, slowing the oxidization process, as well as let you know just what hosiery you’re reaching for exactly when you’re looking for a specific pair. Another benefit is that this method keeps dust from your hosiery directly, and this can keep your clean hosiery fresher for longer during periods of being out of use.

When it comes to organization, there are several different methods you can use. One that we really love at Hosieree.com is the use of a filing cabinet in organizing hosiery, and filing your hose by season, occasion, or use frequency. You can choose separate areas for your winter hose, your summer hose, your formal hose, or any other use you may have in mind, and you can always know just where to look when you require a specific pair. Another similar method is to use small shelving units built into a closet or plastic and portable, and to store your packaged and folded hosiery in different sections so you can grab and go!

At Hosieree.com, we want you to have the very best experience possible with your fine hosiery, and we know that this can get tough as your collection grows and grows! By keeping your hosiery in its package, and stored in an organized fashion, you’ll have a collection you can reach for time and time again without worry of damage or settling for not the right pair!

We have plenty of thigh high hosiery pieces to choose from at Hosieree.com, but we find that many women are a little intimidated by wearing thigh highs outside of the bedroom. While thigh high hosiery can really pull together a sexy lingerie-type outfit, this isn’t the only type of ensemble that can benefit from a sleek pair of thigh highs, and we want to give you a few more ideas when it comes to working this look into your everyday! 4 tips on wearing thigh highs are:

1. Make them boho-chic – The boho chic look so trendy this spring and summer, as well as last spring and summer, can be enhanced a hundredfold by a pair of thigh high hose. Without a garter belt, try pairing your thigh highs with a mini-jumper type dress, and incorporate a floppy or sun type hat in the same color as your hosiery. What this does is tone down your super short hemline, while still keeping things sexy, and it turns your thigh highs into your most stand-out accessory!
2. Give your summer romper a way to change seasons – Rompers are super chic this summer, but thigh highs give you a way to bring the look into fall. By pairing fall-friendly thigh highs, the opaque kind made of a cool weather fabric like wool, with a romper, you can take your favorite summer outfit and bring it into the fall season. Our perfect pick for this look is using our Wool Stay Up Stockings Jennifer sans garter belt!
3. Go for texture – With a plain skirt, textured thigh highs can really bring the attention to your legs while adding a little something fun to your overall look. Particularly in the fall, try pairing a fall-color skater skirt with a pair of textured thigh highs like our Carillon Thigh High Stockings.
4. Work in layers – Thigh highs can also be worked into a layered look, and this also works really well with textured thigh highs. For a really fun and quirky layered look, pair a short skirt or a pair of shorts with first a colored pair of fashion tights, like our Cortina 40 Semi-Opaque Tights in Bright Colors, and layer a textured look on top with a thigh high like our Carillon Thigh High Stockings or Fiore Azalia Thigh High Stockings. With other layered elements like a cardigan or jacket, this can complete your layered look like you never quite expected!

When it comes to hosiery, there are two main color types with sheer and opaque. Sheer hosiery is the type of hosiery that will give you the most natural look, as their sheer nature allows the beauty of your natural skin to show through. Opaque hosiery, however, is what you’re going to be looking for if you want to incorporate colors or work hosiery into your fall or winter look. There are many ways to wear either type of hosiery, but to know when to wear which is important to sporting your hosiery in the best possible way!

One of the easiest ways to know when to go sheer or opaque is to look at the season. Although these are guidelines to go by, they’re not exclusive, but it’s a nice easy place to start! During the summer months, you’ll want to lean towards sheer tights for most of your looks, although opaque looks can be worked in as well. If you’re attending a wedding, for instance, and you want to bring hosiery into your look, you’ll want to lean towards sheer hosiery to keep your look summery and your temperature cool!

For the cooler months, opaque hosiery will not only give your look a fun edge, but it will keep you warm as well. Opaque hosiery is thicker than sheer hosiery, so it can allow you to wear skirts and other leg baring wardrobe pieces during the cooler months without worrying about becoming too cool. For fall and winter, try bringing in colored opaque tights to really spice it up!

Another way to know whether to go sheer or opaque is by looking at your hemline. If your hemline is shorter, you may want to go with opaque hosiery, as this will make your look a little more modest without putting a damper on your sex appeal. For miniskirts especially, an opaque tight can make your skirt work for just about any occasion. If your hemline is longer, however, you’ll want to go sheer, as the opaque option will make things a little too modest! An opaque tight with a longer skirt can give the impression of layers over layers, and this is something you’ll want to avoid if you’re trying to keep your outfit sexy and streamlined.

At Hoseriee.com, we have sheer and opaque hosiery of all kinds, so there is always a little something to go with any ensemble. To see what options may be best for you, check out what we have in store at Hosieree.com today!
