Fashion hosiery has become a huge deal in fashion year after year. In the spring, summer, fall, and winter, we’re seeing seasonal looks sculpted using fashion hosiery as an anchor piece tying the entire look together. At Hosieree.com, we have all the fashion hose you need to take you through the rest of 2019, and a few trends we’d like to highlight are:

• Leopard on leopard – Leopard is a bold look, there’s no doubt about that. You can find just about any fashion element you want in leopard, from bags, to sweaters, to skirts and denim. What about hosiery? This year the key style element getting the wild treatment is hosiery, like our Fashion Tights Caty. More specifically, pairing leopard fashion hosiery with leopard footwear. Pairing leopard fashion tights with leopard pumps was all over the runways at Milan fashion week, and it’s an easy way to take catwalk style right to your city streets!

•  Pattern mixing – Pattern mixing is an easy way to get chic, but a tougher thing to master. When you have mastered it, however, you can really take this look anywhere to form something interesting, high fashion, and trendsetting in so many different ways. One very edgy example is taking the aforementioned leopard tights and mixing them with a plaid skirt, which touches on both the 90’s and punk trends taking over runways and walkways this year. Another popular option that ramps up the femininity of your look is taking our Puntina Polka Dot Pantyhose and pairing them with a delicate floral pattern.

• Casual chic with sneakers – Don’t think you’re limited to a heel, wedge, or classic flat when you’re wearing your hosiery. A big trend for this season is to pair your tights with a more casual sneaker, which really masters the casual chic look that is massive in streetwear fashion right now. Take a favorite skirt, pair with a fashion tight like our Argo Fashion Tights by Trasparenze, and finish off your look with a crisp pair of lace up flat sneakers.

Today’s biggest trends you need to adopt are all firmly rooted in streetwear, which means you can take these off the runway looks and really incorporate them into your everyday life. If you’re looking for the perfect tights to adopt these trends for yourself, get what you need at Hosieree.com today!

As the crisp chill of fall begins to creep into the air, we at Hosieree.com know it’s time to get excited! While hosiery is a formal and professional staple all year round, it’s really the fall and winter seasons that let your fashion creativity shine. Your hosiery becomes one of your most go-to wardrobe staples, allowing you to transform your looks and get entirely new results using the same pieces you’ve worn over and over again. A few reasons why we love this time of year are:

• Keep going with your favorite shorts – Shorts don’t have to be put away after Labor Day, and as a matter of fact, they can be your new favorite pieces especially during these warmer early fall days. A tailored pair of shorts can be paired with a black opaque tight and a stunning pair of stilettos complementing that sharp blazer during a night out. A denim pair of retro or distressed shorts can be layered on top of fishnets for an edgy streetwear ready look.

• Get bootie ready – Few footwear options are more fall-friendly than booties, and few legwear options look better with booties than tights. If you’re looking to strut your stuff in a knee-length skirt and cozy sweater, choose a pair of opaque tights in a fun fall-friendly color and put on your favorite pair of booties. What you have is a casual, comfy, and cute look for autumn that can take you pretty much everywhere.

• Go from day to night – If you’re going to be out for the day, a great pair of hosiery may be all you need to successfully take your look from day to night. The same skirt and top you wore to work can travel to happy hour with your team by pairing the outfit with a pair of fishnet hosiery or tights in a fun color or pattern. Looking to keep it sleek and simple? Add in black hosiery and you’re always ready to go. If you’re traveling this fall, this simple trick gives you a way to create more looks without taking up too much room in your suitcase!

When you think of staple hosiery, the first thought you’re like to have after a pair of classic nude hose is black tights. Black tights absolutely never go out of fashion, and they’re likely one of those layers you reach for first to bring your outfits into fall and winter. At Hosieree.com, we want to show you all the ways you can love a pair of staple black tights, like our U4689 Opaque Tights. 4 ways to wear your staple black tights this season are:

1. Bring them into your layering – Layering is the perfect functional and fashionable look for fall. After all, you might have warm days, cool evenings, and downright cold nights. A midi skirt, booties, a sweater, and a jacket really ties together with the added layer of black tights between the shoe and the skirt’s hemline.
2. Use fishnets to ramp up your streetwear – When you think of black tights, you’ll probably think of classic opaque black tights first. However, black fishnet tights still count, and as a matter of fact, they add something really fun and different to your entire tights wardrobe. You can take tailored shorts, feminine fabrics, and even spring or summer colors and turn them into cool weather ready streetwear pieces by simply adding a pair of black fishnet tights into the mix.
3. Streamline your shift dresses – Shift dresses are back for the fall and winter seasons, and a lot of women find it difficult to really pull this style of dress off. A shift dress will usually have a straight line “boxy” sort of appearance, with a high hemline that is supposed to turn attention to the silhouette of the legs. With a pair of black tights, you really highlight this streamlining effect and highlight the shape of your legs without ever being “too much”.
4. Tone down while you play up your curves – Wiggle dresses and pencil skirts are beautiful choices for playing up your curves. For many women, these looks make you feel sexy and confident, but they might feel a bit too sexy for some environments. With a pair of opaque black tights, you can keep your look a little more modest while you strut your stuff with your head held high. This combo is perfect for the office, or a night out!

A comfortable pair of Blueberry Love Fashion Tights are subtle enough to give you a slight edge while staying classically cool. 

Perfect Pairings

For the best pairings, think about your wardrobe and add tights to complement what you already have. You might be surprised at how you can make colored tights work for you when you wear them in one of these combinations.

• Stick with what you know. For those who are skeptical about anything on the bright side of the color wheel, start off with tights in a color you’re accustomed to. Diamond Shimmering Fashion Tights come in a very deep blue color that isn’t too far above a classic navy. Consider it navy after a margarita.
• Start off small. No matter what color you choose, only show a bit of it. This will get you used to the color without overwhelming your eyes. For instance, pair Freedom Classic Opaque Tights in Abricot with an ankle length skirt in chocolate brown. You’ll only get peeks when you walk, or when the wind blows.
• Add a subtle pop of color. When your outfit is full of neutral tones such as pale beige or dove gray, pick a pair of tights that give some zing. Microfiber Sophie Tights in Acqua allows you to show more color below while keeping yourself neutral above. 
• Go all out. Once you’ve mastered colored tights in your own time, let loose on a day when you’re feeling your best. Dig out your denim mini and pull on Cortina Tights in Soleil. After that, you’ll be ready to make tights of all colors a part of your everyday wardrobe.

The trend of colored tights will never truly go away, so the more comfortable you are now, the more fashionable you’ll continue to be throughout your lifetime. Take a minute to browse through the may colored tights that we offer at hosieree.com and begin building your wardrobe today.

One of the longest standing debates and often something many people just can’t see eye to eye on is whether or not it is okay and fashionable to wear socks with sandals. Well, this debate has now spilled over into the legging and tights world as people have begun wondering if it is fashionably acceptable behavior to wear sandals with their tights.

With the arrival of summer, this is definitely something we need to get to the bottom of as we begin to prepare our summer wardrobes.

The Arrival of Summer

We are aware that people wear hosiery year round and that includes during the summer months as well. Being bare legged isn’t always something people are comfortable with, and for this reason, we are saying that it is okay to wear sandals and tights – as long as you have the right tights.

When you have the right pair of tights in your wardrobe, they can be worn with flat shoes, sandals, high heels, and more. They will still look as good and as stylish as ever. The biggest point to remember is to always wear what you love and what you feel the most comfortable in.

How to Wear Sandals with Tights

When pairing sandals and tights, the biggest piece of advice we have to offer you is to make sure it looks natural and it feels comfortable to wear. When you are comfortable, you are able to exude much more self-confidence and that is what the people around you will be noticing.

Another tip is to look for sheer styles to wear instead of a pair of black opaque tights you may wear at other times of the year. You can also opt for colorful tights instead of the black as well. Great colors for summer include reds, yellows, an emerald green, pink, and all of the brightest colors you can think of.

Pastel colors are of course also a good style choice, so shades of mint, peach, light blues, and pale pinks are also on trend for summer.

Toeless Hosiery – Yes or No?

It isn’t necessarily better to wear toeless hosiery with sandals, but this choice really just comes down to the kind of sandals you will be wearing. Toeless tights are better for slides and sandals that have a thicker strap over the toes. So, before you panic and become unsure of your summer wardrobe, consider how versatile a good, high-quality pair of colorful tights can be.

More and more women prefer to wear sheer hosiery during the summer months; however, there is only a small percentage of these women that choose glossy tights over matte. Trends and times are changing though as more people are turning to glossy tights for the summer as well as all the other seasons. Since they are still on trend, we thought we would fill you in on the differences between wearing matte versus glossy tights for the summer.

Glossy vs. Ultra-Glossy

Yes, that’s right. There are two levels of glossy we have to include as we figure out what is best for summer. Ultra-gloss tights tend to be on the thinner side and are often much thinner than traditional denier tights. Glossy tights are also more lightweight and can keep your legs much cooler during the warmer weather.

For summer, we suggest hosiery that falls under the 15 denier level. Ultra-sheer hosiery is also good if you are looking for more of a barely there style. Overall, it is really up to your own personal tastes and style to determine where you stand on the glossy versus ultra-glossy spectrum.

The Allure of Matte Tights

The question to go bare legged or not as well as the sandals with tights questions are sparking a lot of debate in the fashion world. And so is the glossy and shiny tights versus matte debate. If you want more coverage for your legs and you want to hide any imperfections you may have, then matte tights may be the best choice. They also provide you with a much smoother and more natural look than glossy tights.

Is There an In Between?

If you are one who can’t decide, then satin may be the in-between style you are looking for. They are neither matte nor gloss and instead fall somewhere in the middle. It can also be worn stylishly for both a day and evening look and will complement any outfit.

Which Do You Prefer?

So, which do you prefer? When deciding which tights to wear, you should also consider your outfit. You don’t want to pair matte tights with a glossy or shiny dress. Every piece of your outfit needs to complement each other for an amazing look.

You can find a great selection of high-quality sheer, glossy, or matte hosiery on hosieree.com today so you can start building up the summer wardrobe of your dreams.

With spring here and summer right around the corner, it is time to start rethinking our current wardrobe and pull out pieces that will work well during the warmer months of the year. It may even be time to ditch the old and worn out stuff and visit hosieree.com for some hosiery you will fall in love with.

The following are some of the biggest and hottest trends we are seeing in the fashion world for spring and summer 2019:

Floral is Stronger Than Ever

Highly inspired by the 1970s, floral prints and patterns are hot and perfect for spring. Lace hosiery with a floral pattern can be seen in stockings and knee highs and come in an abundance of different textures and patterns.

For a more folk-inspired look this season, you can add your hosiery with other accessories like macramé styles, feathers, and even fringe. The hosiery will be what grounds the look while adding a slight touch of sophistication to your ensemble.

Top Color Trends

Color is always a thing, so why would that change now? Back in the day, it was important to match your bag to what you were wearing; however, this year, the experts think that every item you wear needs to match.

White is a popular color option and is becoming much more than just a bridal trend. Need something with more dramatic flair? Neon colors are also popular along with shades of yellow, emerald green, orange, and fuchsia.

White is also being considered the new black in the fashion world, and white tights and hosiery can be paired with light pastels for a brilliantly inspired spring look.

Bringing Back Knee Highs

Knee highs are also back and better than ever. They look great paired with a cute pair of shorts or even knee-length skirts and dresses. Many are opting for the plain and sheer variety this year.

In addition to knee highs, thigh highs are also making an appearance, and with the warmer weather upon us, they make a great alternative to tights. It is also a great way to add some sex-appeal to any outfit.

While pantyhose and hosiery absolutely sound very similar, they are actually different leg garments. These garments are used to cover our waists down to our feet. They typically cover the lower parts of our body, including the thighs and legs and are often worn because they are stretchable, comfortable, and very form fitting and flattering.

The biggest similarity between the two would have to be the use of them. They are both used to provide coverage and enhance our outfit. They can also help to cover any skin imperfections we don’t want the world seeing like blemishes, scars, and hair. Pantyhose can also be worn under fitted dresses to help hide any panty lines there may be.

The Difference Between Pantyhose and Tights

Pantyhose often refers to sheer garments that are worn as a type of hosiery. They came about following the creation of stockings and provider a much thinner and sheerer material to wear when compared to the thicker and more opaque material used in stockings.

Pantyhose is a term widely used in the United States and not something that you will readily find with the British and other Europeans. They don’t have pantyhose and instead use the term tights, which refers to the same concept as pantyhose in America. Tights in this way encompass both thin and thick material for legwear.

The Nature of the Garment

Another difference is the nature of the garment. Pantyhose is usually considered something that is worn as an undergarment or underwear, which means that it shouldn’t be worn on its own but rather as a garment to supplement an outfit. Tights, however, can be worn on their own as legwear similar to the way you would wear any other type of pants.

Pantyhose is sheer and can be almost see through and depending on the color, can also reveal a bit more of your skin. The leg portion of pantyhose is made to be sheer and thin while the part you wear around your waist is a bit thicker and often made from another material like cotton. Tights have a similar consistency and thickness to a different type of fabric.

Tights have been an icon in fashion for many, many years and were even reported as being worn far earlier than pantyhose which was only introduced around the late 1950s. Tights are comfortable, form-fitting, thicker than pantyhose and are often used while exercising or participating in other similar activities. They are also stretchable and allow for better body movement.
