White Hosiery Is The Statement Trend Of Fall 2019

White Hosiery Is The Statement Trend Of Fall 2019

For fall and winter 2019, you might think you have your hosiery wardrobe stocked. You have patterns, you have opaque black, you have sheer nudes, but have you considered white? White hosiery often brings back the memories of Sunday dresses and Mary Jane shoes you wore as a little girl, but white hosiery is actually so much more than that. One of the most surprising trends coming into fall and winter 2019 is white hosiery, and this comes with a chicness many didn’t even know existed.

Statement hosiery has been a big deal for several years now. We’ve seen embellished tights with crystals or embroidery, we’ve seen edgy looks with fishnet, and we’ve seen color blocking trends expanded with the incorporation of brightly colored hose. However, white hosiery makes a statement of the statement, invoking looks like those popular on high fashion models during the 1960’s as well as some updated trends for the 21st century.

One way this trend is being embraced is with the retro look. One really excellent thing about rocking retro is that it never seems to go out of style. If you’re looking to invest in wardrobe pieces, like hosiery, going with something classic and vintage-inspired is likely to last the tests of time. White tights are being paired with patterned mini skirts and high-hemline shift dresses. As for footwear, chunky heels with an open toe is a great way to add in a little funkiness, while booties are a safer and always trendy option.

If you’re looking to bring this look into the 21st century with a more modern approach, try pairing your white hosiery with a light colored tailored short. These shorts are usually put away after the summer season ends, but white hosiery gives you a new way to wear them all the way into winter. For something extra chic, add a blazer in a complementing light color to your look with a closed-toe classic sky-high pump.

White hosiery is a part of the hosiery world you might be missing out on, and there are plenty of grown-up ways to wear white hosiery that add something entirely new to your wardrobe. If you’re looking for the perfect white hose to try this 2019 trend for yourself, we have just what you need at Hosieree.com!

The Hosiery Trends You Need To Adopt Right Now

The Hosiery Trends You Need To Adopt Right Now

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!

Fall Hosiery Season Is Upon Us Once Again

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 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!

4 Ways To Wear Your Staple Black Tights

4 Ways To Wear Your Staple Black Tights

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!

Have you picked up your staple black tights for the autumn and winter season yet? We have just what you need at Hosieree.com, so check us out today!

  • 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.

Do You Know The Difference Between Stockings And Tights?

Do You Know The Difference Between Stockings And Tights?

If there’s one question, or two, that is constant in the world of women’s legwear fashion, it’s this: What’s the difference between stockings and tights? And which ones should you choose? At Hosieree.com, we believe it’s a matter of personal preference as they both have many positive qualities. If you aren’t sure what your personal preference is, consider the differences to determine which is right for you.

Stockings

Stockings start at the foot and cover the leg up to the mid-thigh, or sometimes just above the knee. They are work with a suspender belt to keep them from falling down. (Note – Do not confuse thigh highs with stockings. Thigh highs have a silicone strip along the top of each leg to hold them in place.)  Most stockings are sheer, but there are some opaque varieties available. Some of the benefits of wearing stockings include:

  • They make you feel empowered. (There’s something about being the only one who knows that you’re wearing a sexy back-seam stocking under your suit.)  
  • They fit all body shapes and sizes.
  • With better air flow to your bottom, stockings can keep your cooler and more comfortable.
  • They come in so many fun and flirty styles, you can wear them for any occasion.

One disadvantage of stockings is that they cannot be worn with too-high skirts or shorts.

Tights

Tights cover your legs from the toe to the waist. They’re traditionally thicker than stockings, but they now come in a wide variety of deniers and opacities. Some of the benefits of tights include:

  • They can be a lifesaver if you live in a cold climate.
  • You don’t need suspenders to wear them.
  • They can be worn under shorts and very short hemlines.
  • You can find them in beautiful patterns and designs.

One disadvantage of tights is that they can be too restricting and warm due to the full coverage.

Whether you prefer stockings or tights, we have a beautiful variety of colors and styles. They’re all made from the highest quality European fabrics available, which make them feel as good as they look. Browse through our selection for the hottest styles and trends to make your legs happy. You might just end up choosing both.

Crotchless Undergarments Are Fun And Functional

Crotchless Undergarments Are Fun And Functional

Lingerie has quite the history. For example, it wasn’t until the middle of the 19th Century that buttons were sewn on the crotch of ladies undergarments to provide closure. Prior to that, undergarments were open from the thigh up. The reason was two-fold: It made using the chamber pot much easier, and it was considered to be more hygienic by providing ventilation to the lady parts. As hemlines became shorter, and less material was used in skirting, a closed crotch became more practical. 

The Benefits Of An Open Crotch Design

Today, crotchless panties and tights evoke thoughts of the naughty, but they really do have benefits beyond fun. For example:

  • They make it easier to use the restroom. Today’s dresses might not be as intricate and multi-layered as the dresses of yore, but a tight-fitted evening gown can pose a problem when it comes to pulling things down, and then back up, to use the bathroom. Open Crotch Pantyhose solve that problem, and they’re elegant enough to wear with any formal dress.
  • They are so very comfortable. An open crotch means cooler temperatures in your nether regions, and less sweating on a warm day. With no fabric to rub against your sensitive area, there’s less irritation. This can be an excellent option for those who suffer from hypersensitivity or vulvodynia. Sheer Crotchless Tights can provide comfort with cover.
  • Okay, yes, they’re quite sexy. Crotchless undergarments of any type are still sexy and fun. They can make you feel glamorous and sensual when you’re the only one who knows what you’re wearing. They can add fun and excitement to the bedroom when you let someone special in on the secret. Scandal Strip Panty Tights provide just what you need to feel good. Wearing underwear with these is optional.
  • Anyone can wear them. Crotchless tights and pantyhose provide a sleek and flattering silhouette on any body type. Miss Naughty features open crotch tights in sizes up to XXXL. They can make women of all shapes and sizes feel just a bit sexier while providing benefits that are comfortable and convenient.

Sandals and Tights – The Debate

 Sandals and Tights - The Debate

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. Visit hosieree.com today to start shopping for your new summer options.

Matte vs. Glossy Tights for Summer

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.

Spring and Summer Hosiery Trends for 2019

Spring and Summer Hosiery Trends for 2019

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.
