A Few Tips For Wearing The Boldest Patterned Hosiery

A Few Tips For Wearing The Boldest Patterned Hosiery

The quickest way to make a serious statement with your hosiery is with patterned fashioned hosiery. At Hosieree.com, we source truly unique pieces like the show-stopping Marilyn B03 MONROE GOLD Tights, and it’s no secret that we love a great pair of statement hose.  Statement hosiery can be a little intimidating at first, but we have all the tips you need to get you comfortable with incorporating these pieces into an exciting wardrobe. 

First and foremost, if you’re wearing statement hosiery, it’s important that you let the hosiery make the statement. You want to avoid your outfit becoming too busy or disjointed, and you want to draw all of that focus onto the hosiery above everything else. For this reason, it’s always a win when you pair your statement hosiery with basic staples. A simple skirt, a leather jacket, a plain top, and statement hosiery ensures your clothes are a frame for the hosiery you want to show off. 

It’s not just the design of your outfit that’s important, you’ll also want to consider color. You can (and should) pair statement hosiery with your favorite bold colors, but you do want to avoid color mixing too much in order to avoid the rest of your clothes overshadowing the hose. A monochromatic look using your favorite vibrant shade is perfect for creating a colorful frame for your hose. 

Lastly, pay attention to your footwear. When wearing a bold pair of statement patterned hosiery, a patterned or textured shoe can create a messy or disjointed look that takes away from the cohesiveness of your outfit. Instead, make use of your classic footwear. A single color shoe in a “flat” fabric like leather or suede (or the faux versions of either) creates the perfect contrast against your hosiery. 

At Hosieree.com we have the fun, bold, and stand-out patterns that make your hosiery the centerpiece of your outfit. To see what perfect pair we have in store for you, check us out at Hosieree.com today. 

Signs It’s Time To Replace Your Hosiery

Signs It’s Time To Replace Your Hosiery

While high-quality hosiery will last a number of years with proper care, like any well-loved garment – it’s not meant to last forever. At Hosieree.com, we have all of the pieces you need to refresh your hosiery wardrobe, and we want to let you in on what signs to look for to let you know that time has come. A few signs that it’s time to replace your favorite pieces in your hosiery drawer are: 

  • Your hosiery is sagging or slipping during wear – A well-fitting pair of hosiery should hug your body like a glove. If you find yourself hiking up your hosiery at the waist, or repeatedly bending down to take care of sagging at the ankle, it might be time to replace your favorites. This occurs when the material that makes up the hose starts to lose its shape, which may happen after some well-worn years. 
  • You notice misshapen areas or discoloration at the knees – Just like at the waist or the ankle, old hosiery can lose its shape at the knee as well. This likely won’t present as sagging or slipping, but as a misshapen look that distorts the look of your knee. Another sign that can be found at the knee is discoloration, which is often a sign that the hosiery is beginning to fail. Discoloration can most often be seen in opaque colored tights. 
  • Runs or snags – Runs and snags can ruin the look of your hosiery in an instant. If you notice your hosiery taking on more weak spots that turn into runs or snags, it’s a sure sign that it’s time for a replacement. 
  • Pilling in friction areas – If you’ve ever looked at a pair of opaque tights and noticed small balls of fabric on the surface, what you’re looking at is called “pilling”. Pilling occurs when fibers on the surface of the hosiery begin to break, then become tangled together to form small ball-like knots. This occurs with regular wear and tear and can most often be found in high-friction areas. 

At Hosieree.com, you can always find a new favorite to replace those well-worn pairs you’ve loved. Check us out today to see what we have in store for you.

From Fishnets to Lace: Exploring the More Sensual Side of Hosiery 

From Fishnets to Lace: Exploring the More Sensual Side of Hosiery 

Fishnet stockings and lace hosiery are just two types of legwear that can add a sensual and provocative touch to your wardrobe. Whether you want to spice up a special occasion or add more allure to an everyday outfit, this hosiery helps you make a statement. 

With that being said, let’s explore the more sensual side of hosiery and talk about some key aspects of fishnets and lace stockings. 

Fishnet Stockings

Fishnet stockings are popularly characterized by their distinctive diamond-shaped open weave pattern. They are often associated with a seductive and edgy aesthetic. 

  • Versatile: Fishnets come in various sizes, ranging from small to large diamonds. Smaller patterns offer a more subtle look, and larger patterns easily make a bolder statement.
  • Material: Fishnets are also made from different materials like nylon and spandex. When choosing fishnets, find a material that feels the most comfortable against your skin and provides the level of stretch you want. 
  • Color Options: Traditional fishnet stockings are black, but you can also find them in a range of colors that suit your preferences or go with your different ensembles. Red, white, and nude tones are popular alternatives that add variety to your wardrobe. 
  • Styling Tips: Fishnets can be paired with skirts, dresses, shorts, or ripped jeans for a daring look. You can also layer them over solid-colored tights or wear them with garters for even more allure. 

Lace Stockings

Lace stockings are well known for their intricate and delicate patterns that exude elegance and femininity. 

  • Sheerness: Lace stockings are typically sheer or semi-sheer, so there is a glimpse of skin underneath. This quality contributes greatly to their sensuality and is a key aspect of their appeal. 
  • Patterns and Textures: Lace stockings come in various patterns and textures that range from floral designs to more geometric options. Consider the level of intricacy and texture and find what best suits your personal style. 
  • Attachment Methods: Lace stockings can be designed with a simple elastic band at the top to hold them up or with built-in garters. Garter belts or suspender belts can also be used to secure lace stockings, creating an alluring and vintage-inspired look. 

What matters the most is how you feel when wearing your hosiery. Experiment with different styles, patterns, and materials to find what you feel the best and most confident in.
