Your Black Tights


Black is one of the color of the upcoming fall and winter seasons. Why? That’s because there is not another color that doesn’t go well with the color black, making any color look hot and giving you the flexibility you need to stay up with the hottest trends. Being that the trends change so much, having black in your wardrobe will always keep you in style in terms of color.

Whether it is sheer, black hosiery like
Agata, Brazil15, Moon Light or the latest fashion trend of tights like Bernetta, Debora,
Elegant, black is something that everyone needs to have in their closet. Are you a woman with a little black dress? If not, you need to get one. Once you have that little black dress you can pair it with a amazing variety of leg accessories like hosiery,
tights, stockings or thigh highs. These trendy items could be made of lace ( Amy, Genny, Fantasy ), lurex (Bianca,
Ilona, Viena ) and other materials and have solid colors or consist of patterns. Even if you like bright colored dresses, you can still wear an elegant pair of stockings ( Chic15, Champs Elysees, Lady15 ) that can transform your legs and make heads turn with envy.

Better yet, team your colorful dresses with the new “neutral”
hosiery in different colors. Classic colors such as gray, white, and natural are very trendy this season. These colors that were once considered to be bland bring about a certain degree of sophistication that was not considered before. Tights or stockings in these new colors are just the items you need to offset the beautiful black dresses that all the rage forever.

Choose your Halloween hosiery



With Halloween just around the corner, you should already be preparing for the best Halloween costume that you can wear for that endless Halloween party you are going to attend. If you do not have any idea what to wear to your party yet, you should remember that there is no need to spend hundreds of dollars just to come up with a creative and high quality costume. In fact, you do not have to go out and buy a new set of costume this year. You can use the costumes you have worn the previous years, and just accentuate it with different hosiery.

If you want to buy a new costume altogether, you can make your costume sexier by accentuating it with any kind of hosiery. Add some spice into your costume by wearing tights in shades that will complement with your chosen attire, or accentuate that sexy doctor or nurse costume with stay ups. You can even use
pantyhose that will match with the costume you have selected. Just remember that if you are wearing that skimpy costume for your Halloween party, you should never go out without dressing up your legs first.

If you want to make the best out of your Halloween costume, here are some great ideas you can use:

The Royal Secret to Nice Legs


Many fashion trends have been launched by world renowned celebrities. Perhaps due to their influence and sheer beauty, many people tend to follow such trends immediately, creating a huge demand for whatever hairstyle, clothes, as well as accessories and fashion items they are using. From Farah Fawcett’s trademark hairstyle, to Twiggy’s waif-like look, or Audrey Hepburn’s pixie style—enduring fashion trends create and define a particular look that will forever be associated with the celebrity. With a global media obsessed with royalty, it is no wonder that people across the world are also focusing on the fashion choices of these royalties, especially when it comes to the current ‘It’ girl, the Royal Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton.

A case in point: when she swept through North America for her first official visit after her wedding to the Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, many people closely followed her fashion choices and some were surprised that she dared to wear shimmery ultra nude stockings with her dresses during official state visits and functions. A few days after images of her circulated in various media outlets, sales of these previously unpopular sheer
pantyhose increased by as much as 85% compared with last year’s sales—and this is just for the first half of 2011!

Thanks to this trend launched by Kate and her sister Pippa Middleton, many people around the world have also begun wearing sheer tights or nude pantyhose, even incorporating them to their day wear.  What was previously viewed as a poor fashion choice is now making a comeback as a hot trend among women. Today, technology has made it possible to produce barely there or ultra sheer stockings that are also durable, comfortable, and allow your legs to ‘breathe.’ High tech materials also reduce constriction while providing firm support for those who need it.

Another good thing about this latest trend is that they allow women to wear clothes that they have not been able to wear when the ‘bare legs’ look is highly preferred. Nowadays, women can walk out with confidence, knowing that their flaws are covered oh so naturally with these sheer tights. Finally, they are no longer confined to special events and can now be worn practically anywhere and anytime. With popular celebrities, such as Beyonce also sporting these nude tights, sales are expected to increase for the rest of the year. At least for now, it looks like sheer pantyhose are here to stay!

Why Would Men Want To Wear Hosiery?


There have been a lot
of changes in the world of hosiery over the last several centuries. There was a
time back in the 1400’s when it was the men that wore them predominately. You
know the images we all have of guys wearing hose and leotards, well that was not
far from the truth at all. Then women discovered the beauty of hosiery and in
time men seemed to give up on them all together. Finally the times are changing
again and more and more men are rediscovering the benefits of wearing men’s
hosiery.

In fact the use of hosiery among men is
getting to be so popular and so accepted that Entrepreneur Magazine published an
article that included the quote:
“One item U.S. military personnel are asking for is pantyhose. Dating back to his days as a professional football
player, Bart Star said he wore pantyhose for warmth during games. Now, that
might give some people pause, but pantyhose are one way that military personnel
can protect themselves from pesky sand fleas.”
If the military are
willing to wear men’s hosiery then why on earth are other men worried it will
make them seem to girlie?
The truth is that if all men wore hosiery there
would be a lot less health problems for them to contend with. There are numerous
reason why this small piece of clothing can really make your life
better.

For example wearing the right men’s hosiery can actually improve
your blood circulation and as a result the rest of your body feels more
energized and happy on the whole. This can aid one with dealing wit diseases
like diabetes as well, and if you suffer from diabetes then you know how any
thing that can help is a godsend. Male population suffer from Varicose vein as
much as women and support hosiery help to improve blood flow and massage your
legs to help veins in pushing blood towards the heart. Even doctors prescribe
support hosiery to people that suffer from swelling feet or fatigue legs, with
no differentiation between men and women.

Of course the fact that men’s
hosiery helps a man to stay warm even when it is cold outside doesn’t hurt at
all. This is a comfortable way to stay nice and toasty no matter what the
temperature drops to. And best of all hosiery is comfortable. Things have
changed a lot over the last 10 years in terms of the comfort level and now you
can wear men’s hosiery and feel strong, proud, comfortable and perfectly manly
all at the same time.
If you are a man and you have not yet checked out all
the benefits that come with hosiery then you are missing out in terms of comfort
and health. It is time you learned all you can about this to make.

HISTORY of HOSIERY


The history of hosiery dates back as early as 280 AD when people first learned to knit.
They started knitting stockings to keep their legs warm, but these hose were a far cry from the
versions we wear today. Hose started to take the shape we know and love today in medieval times,
which is also when they took the name hose.
In Medieval Europe any material that could be woven was used to create hose.
These hose resembled socks much more than they resembled modern hosiery.
They did not have a panty, either, and were held up by garters, strings, or ties at the belt.
n the 1580s a reverend by the name William Lee invented a knitting machine.
Now hose could be made quickly and efficiently, and
silk stockings began to
take precedent over the itchy, woolen variety of the past. Queen Elizabeth was the first
monarch to wear silk stockings, and she loved them so much that she ruled that anyone who took the
plans for Lee’s invention out of the country would be executed.
Silk stockings were worn by both men
and women, and they were sewn in a wide range of sizes. This is because they did not stretch,
so in order to avoid sagging the hose had to be as form fitting as possible for each individual’s particular size.
Hose also came in a wide range of colors, and women were never seen without their legs covered by hose.

As history continued, hose were made from any woven fabric, including cotton, silk, and wool.
The hose were cut from a pattern and then sewn. Eventually someone invented a machine that could knit in a circle.
This machine created a long tube of fabric, but without something in the fabric to allow it to stretch,
hose sagged on just about every wearer.
The world of hose continued in this fashion, with silk hose held up by
garters as the most popular design worn by women,
until the early 1900s when nylon was discovered. In 1937, a researcher
for the DuPont Company found that heating
a mixture of coal, air, tar, and water created a fiber that was strong
and flexible, but also felt silky.
These polymer fibers were exceptionally thin and could stretch. This
material was called nylon, and immediately put to use to make hose.
The nylon hose, or nylons as we call them today, hit the world scene at the 1939 World’s Fair. The next year they
started selling the new hose in New York, and 72,000 pairs were purchased on the very first day they were on
the market. After four days, four million pairs of nylons had been purchased. The new material was a hit
because it stretched and conformed to the woman’s leg, rather than gathering and bunching like silk and cotton hose did.


The introduction of the panty to the world of hosiery came in the 1950s. Introducing a built-in panty to a pair of
nylons eliminated the need for certain undergarments. The late fifties and early sixties were when Spandex was
discovered and added to hose. Yarn manufacturers realized that they could crimp heated yarn. This created a yarn
that could stretch and then return to its normal shape, making it perfect to incorporate into nylons. DuPont created
a Spandex that they called Lycra, which is still found in today’s nylons.
Nylons of this era still had a seam up the back of the leg and the high
Cuban heel, which protected the nylons
from runs. When World War II hit, nylon was taken off the clothing
market and was used only in production of war materials.
Women missed the fashion statement their nylons made so much that they
drew seams on the back of their legs with makeup pencils.
However, in 1965 nylons dropped their seams when Glen Raven Mills
introduced a pair that had no seam. As fashion became
bigger and brighter in the sixties, so did hose. Women could buy hose
with textures, patterns, and bright colors.
Stripes and patterns with psychedelic colors were not uncommon. The legs
and the hose they wore were the focus of the
fashion world.

Today, nylons are worn mainly by women. Much more professional and empowering than socks, hosiery is considered the main
garment for women’s legs today. Stockings come in every shade, texture, and size imaginable. You can buy fishnet pairs for
those moments that you feel sensual, sparkling pairs for times that call for fun, and even control top hose for times you need
a little help controlling the bulge. Retro nylons with the
high Cuban heel and the back seam are back, and considered quite
fashionable and sexy. You can even buy woolen and silk stockings to give you a taste of the days when nylons didn’t stretch,
but rather bulged and sagged. Whatever your tastes are, there is a pair of nylons to match!

Stylish Ways to Wear Pantyhose and Tights


Pantyhose and tights have been a staple in any female wardrobe for a long time, from the time when warmth was necessary to nowadays when they can be worn for all kinds of reasons with all kinds of looks.
Tights with short skirts or long skirts are warm and attractive, drawing the eyes to the style and texture.
Pantyhose can be used to add color and texture as well as to camouflage flaws and add a slimming factor to the legs and thighs. There are endless ways that pantyhose and tights can be worn in stylish fashions.

thigh highs, there are sassy socks that can be sexy as well. Worn with open toed high heels and short skirts, lacy short socks are simultaneously sweet and sexy. Hosiery of all kinds are meant to showcase your legs, whether with a texture or with smoothness. From pantyhose to tights and socks, leg and footwear can be as alluring as you want it to be.

Stockings: Not Just For the Bedroom

FioreAzaliaWhen you think of thigh high stockings, you often think of bedroom scenes with sexy lingerie involved while
pantyhose in general is more of what you think of for wearing out and about. Things have changed and evolved in recent years and many styles of stockings are worn out and about, especially at dress up and formal events such as weddings, galas and parties.
Stockings have become a major fashion accessory that can be worn with just about any outfit and shoes. Some pantyhose or thigh highs are smooth and sleek while others are textured and alluring.

Stockings come in many different textures and styles, something for everyone. If it is eye catching and alluring you are after, try thigh high hosiery that has bold vertical stripes that draw the eye up and down your leg. These are appealing to many people, taking basic
pantyhose a step further with texture and boldness. There are always the sheer, versatile
pantyhose styles that cling closely to your skin and provide a slimming factor. All of these styles come in a variety of shades, from black to beige and nude in color. Nude for invisible, black for eye catching texture are often good choices.

FioreFinessInside the bedroom, ooh lala! Stockings, especially thigh highs, can be a wonderfully sexy addition to beautiful intimate wear that is designed to captivate and enthrall. Lacy thigh highs with a floral band of roses are romantically sexy when paired with a lacy teddy and high heels, or merely worn alone. Outside the bedroom, ramp up a sexy outfit with tulle thigh highs accented with back seam and lace for wedding day pizzazz or try gothic tatters for an edgy biker chic look for a night on the town.

Stockings can accent just about any outfit you want to wear, from soft and sexy looks to edgy and tough looks. From short n sassy skirts to long and sexy skirts, the right hosiery can make all the difference in appearance and allure. A versatile and pleasing accessory,
stockings are stylish and trendy as well as attractive and fun. Choose something that suits the evening’s persona, whether sweet and sexy or sassy and bold. If the bare leg look is what’s on tap, try a sheer stocking chosen in a skin tone that will caress your legs, provide a slimming factor and be wonderfully silky and sexy. Stockings are all about accessorizing your look.

What to Wear With Leggings


Leggings are essentially tights without feet. Some leggings fall just below the knee, like Capri pants, while other can go all the way down your leg to the ankle like Frou Frou Fasion Cotton Leggings. Leggings come in a wide variety of colors, textures and fabrics ( Ruth, Eddy ). As they are form fitting with no room for hardly a wrinkle, it takes some consideration to determine what clothing should be paired with leggings.
Leggings done right can be part of a fun and flirty outfit that is attractive and flattering. It is important to consider shoes when putting together an outfit with leggings.

Tunics are one of the most popular tops to pair with leggings
(Eco-Friendly). Tunics are tops that come down past your hips and bottom. Many times people will wear a belt with a tunic and leggings in order to shape the outfit somewhat. The important thing is to create a balanced look, snug fitting leggings with a looser yet not too blousy tunic. One of the most classic legging like Ave70 outfits is a solid black ensemble, black tunic, leggings and high heeled boots. This creates a streamlined, attractive and classic outfit.
Leggings are timeless if done correctly.

Leggings are attractive when paired with a short flirty skirt or dress that falls above the knees, thus showcasing your legs. This allows a short skirt or dress to be worn when temperatures might be too cool for naked legs.  A snug fitting pair of leggings with a flowing short skirt is an outfit that is sweet and cute yet sexy at the same time. Colors chosen in the leggings can be a solid color that complements the colors already in the rest of your outfit or you can go for a monochromatic look. The one color look is an elongating look that makes most people look slimmer and taller.

Shoes to wear with leggings can vary from boots to pumps to flats. Ballerina flats are particularly attractive paired with knee length leggings when the desired look is a sweet one ( Shock Leggings ). An edgier look can be achieved by adding ankle high boots with full length leggings. The choice of shoes is an important one, for shoes that are too clunky or heavy will make the entire outfit look clunky instead of streamlined and pretty. By choosing the right clothing, shoes and accessories to pair with leggings, they can be a fun and attractive part of your wardrobe.

How to Choose the Right Pantyhose for Your Cocktail Dress


Choosing the right pantyhose for your cocktail dress first depends upon the look you want, if you are after simply smooth and sexy legs or if you want attention getting hosiery. Many times a slim fitting, short cocktail dress is most attractive and sexy when paired with invisible and
seamless pantyhose. Under close fitting clothing such as the cocktail dress, a seamless nude look pantyhose is perfect in that it leaves the eye catching job to the dress and your overall beauty.

    A summertime cocktail dress is often light and
    airy and barely there. Pantyhose that works with
    that should be light and airy and barely there as
    well. With an invisible toe and a seamless stretch
    of lightweight fabric, hosiery simply adds an allure
    of sexiness while keeping you cool and fresh.
    The illusion of freshness in summertime is a perfect
    one. Seamless pantyhose are designed to be
    worn against the skin under close fitting clothing,
    giving the illusion of nudity. This is sexy and
    appealing to most men, likely the one you are with
    most of all. Sexiness is easily achieved with one
    of the many pantyhose options available in nude as
    well as several shades of color.

   
If it is pantyhose that has textures and colors that
    you are after to wear with your cocktail dress,
    perhaps fishnet stockings in a shade that
    complements your outfit and shoes is the choice
    to go with. With a lacy band at the top of the thigh,
    fishnet stockings are alluring and sexy when worn
    with a flowy summertime frock. The peek-a-boo
    effect is a powerfully sexy one whether you are alone
    with your significant other or out and about with
    him. Allure and attraction is easy with one of the
    many stylish hosiery options.

Pantyhose styles and textures have come a long way since the days of the ‘eggs’ in shades of nude, beige and black only that we all likely remember. From bridal thigh highs with sexy bands of flowers and lace to black leggings that are tattered and tough, hosiery choices and styles have evolved right along with fashion and clothing everywhere. From sexy to tough and everywhere in between, there are sure to be several hosiery styles that suit your needs. Evening wear that is glittery and sparkly or Capri pants with tears and holes, you name it and it is likely out there.
