How To Care For Your Fun And Flirty Stockings

Fashion tights and stockings are a seriously hot trend, and women everywhere are wearing them in their daily lives and not just saving them for special occasions. Hosieree.com offers a wide array of styles and materials, and can turn your wardrobe into a fashion show in an instant! Here are some tips on how to keep your stockings looking like new:


Hand Wash


While some types of fabric, such as spandex, can technically be washed on the gentle cycle in a machine, it’s always best to hand wash your delicates. Use a very mild soap and when washing them by hand, avoid pulling and scrubbing hard. Use cool water and never hot or the hose could be damaged. Be gentle when you wash and rinse so the hose don’t lose their shape. Let the stocking air dry completely before you store them away.


When Wearing


Even the stoutest stocking fabric will still snag and run, so be sure you trim your nails and don’t let anything snag your stockings. Put them on carefully and roll them up the leg rather than tug. This will help them keep their elasticity and ensure you don’t unwittingly create a run. Be mindful of bumping into things, and avoid letting your stockings come into contact with seat cushions that could catch the fabric.


Storage


When your hose are stored between uses, don’t just crumple them up and stuff them in a drawer. The best way to store delicate hose is to roll them up carefully and put each pair in a soft cloth. For long term storage, put them in a zip lock bag or some type of air tight container to help prolong their life span. Do not store your hose aside bras or other lingerie that has a snap or fastener that could snag your hose.


Repairing A Snag


One quick fix if you do snag your hose is to apply a small drop of clear nail polish around the snag. This will prevent the snag from developing into a large run.

Seamed Stockings

Seamed Stockings Are More Than They Appear To Be

Looking to add some old-time glamor to your wardrobe? Seamed stockings easily bring 19th century charm into this day and age. Originally, seamed stockings only came to be as a result of the first knitting machines that weren’t yet advanced enough to create smooth tights in one piece. When modifications were made to these machines, it partially caused the liberation of ladies’ legs everywhere and those sultry seams disappeared! Now, that vintage allure is back with many women appreciating such a style. 
Those old knitting machines aren’t the only things that have changed. Seamed stockings have developed beyond the sexy but simple black line traveling the back of a woman’s thigh and calf. Experimenting with the world of dyes and tints, some tights feature different colored seams, like red, and flesh tone. These unique seams stand out against contrasting base colors from nude to black. This look can be found in Esprit Couture Bicolor tights, Desiree Rigo Stay Ups and Brigette Rigo Pantyhose. 
Another new design in seamed pantyhose is the addition of the pyramid-shaped heel. The seam eases down from behind the thigh and widens toward the heel like a peek behind a curtain or a tent. Not only is this design creative, but it’s also edgy, creating a great look for parties. Speaking of parties, this next look really works for the night scene. The Cristal Fishnet Pattern Pantyhose have a back-seam that’s interrupted every inch or so by a lovely sparkling crystal. It’s just a tiny bit flashy with a sense of sophistication. 
The seamed stocking is a past trend in hosiery that looks like it’s ever changing and not fizzling out. However, if none of the modified, updated styles tickled your fancy, you can always feel free to stick to the original sheer black tights with one classic back-seam. This design always works for a fun night of dancing at the lounge or even a dinner date with a special guy. If you’re a fashion risk taker, there are plenty of seamed styles and colors at your disposal and one is guaranteed to fit you uniquely! 
Who would have thought that so many looks could come from the patterns of an obsolete knitting machine? Today ladies, you can spice up the look of your legs by taking advantage of this timeless fashion with Hosieree.
And gentlemen, keep in mind that Valentine’s Day 2014 is right around the corner. Nothing says romance like a gift as thoughtful as one the special someone in your life can wear. Style, class, romance and little sex appeal can go a long way this Valentine’s Day.
