4 Tips On Wearing Thigh Highs

4 Tips On Wearing Thigh HighsWe 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!

At Hosieree.com, we know how awesome a pair of thigh highs can be with any sort of look, and we don’t want you to shy away from bringing this look into your fashion repertoire!

Knowing When To Go Sheer Or Opaque

Knowing When To Go Sheer Or OpaqueWhen 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!

Embracing The Elegance Of Fishnets

Embracing The Elegance Of FishnetsLike thigh highs, fishnets can be a little intimidating in terms of hosiery. However, we at Hosieree.com want to make you feel confident and sexy in your fishnets, and all it takes are a few tips on just how to wear them right. While fishnets are the perfect option for bedroom wear, you can also wear them on a girls’ night out, or even in the office, and all it takes is getting to know your fishnets and how to make them the most elegant.

First, when wearing fishnets out and about, you’ll need to look at your hemline first. Wearing fishnets with an ultra short skirt may be a great look for a party or to make up a costume, but it might not be your best pick when it comes to going out for a nice dinner. If you plan to incorporate your fishnets into your outfit, wear a skirt with a hemline that graces the knee or lays just under, more towards the shin, and you’ll find that your look remains completely classic and totally classy.

When wearing fishnets, you’ll also want to consider your shoes. With open toed shoes, the fishnets will tend to look a little messy, which is why we recommend wearing your fishnet stockings with a closed toe option. Closed toe shoes with a little bit of a retro appeal are always a big “yes” when it comes to fishnets, particularly when they’re paired with a pencil type skirt!

You can also incorporate fishnets into your office attire if they’re worn as a hosiery option under pants. With fishnets as an under-pants stocking option, you can give yourself that little hint of sex appeal while still looking completely professional.

At Hosieree.com, we have a plethora of different fishnet options to choose from, and we find that this becomes a favorite amongst many women after they grow confident with their fishnet looks. To see just what fishnets we may have for you, pay us a visit at Hosieree.com today!

Hosiery Socks As Your Star Fall Accessory

Hosiery Socks As Your Star Fall AccessorySummer is right around the corner, and it may seem like fall is a long way off, but you’ll be picking out your early cool season wardrobe before you know it! Stores are already beginning to roll out their fall 2015 wardrobe stylings, and this will only become more prevalent as the season rolls on, so it’s never too early to consider your fall footwear and what hosiery will be best suited for it!

Like last year, booties are slated to make a huge impact during the fall of 2015, and hosiery socks are a perfect match for this trend. Booties allow you to have all of the benefit of a boot, but without the full commitment and a bit more femininity, and they also provide you the perfect option to pair with fun short hosiery styles that you can use to really accessorize your look.

Depending on the socks of your choice, you can also bring in a whole new texture or color element to your booties, and this can give you a way to take the same pair of shoes and turn them into several different looks. For instance, if you have a pair of black booties, you can bring a little color to them by allowing a colored hosiery sock peek through at the top, like with our 10575 Net Fishnet Socks in Rosa. Or, if texture is your thing, pair the same booties with our 10911 Fashion Socks in Nero and see how your booties are completely transformed to create an entirely new appeal.

Mixing up hosiery socks with booties can allow you to take a trend and ramp it up each and every time you embrace it, and no pair of booties has to look the same from outfit to outfit when you incorporate these accessories. At Hoseriee.com we have hosiery sock options for all types of booties, and all you need to do is check us out today to see which would fit best for you this fall!

Shades Of Summer

Sheer hose can be an effective way of staying warm and still showing off your legs, but it can also be important to remember that the color of your sheer pantyhose can impact the overall appearance of your outfit. If you are going for a strong statement or bold contrast, then opaque hose can achieve that effect without conflict, since the higher weave density on this style of hose is suited to the more impactful appearance.
