A Sleek Fit Is A Sign Of The Times
When pantyhose first began to gain popularity in the mid 1900s, the iconic back seam on the legs became something of a symbol of opulence. Showing off these seams was not only a way to highlight the beauty of the legs, but was also a sign that a woman was wealthy enough to afford the artificial silk that was becoming all the rage. As a result, not sporting that tell-tale seam could indicate a lower social status. Continue reading A Sleek Fit Is A Sign Of The Times

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.
Hosieree.com has a wide selection of gorgeous stockings that can suit any occasion and body type. Our seamed nylons are a nod to the fashions of the 1950’s and are one of the hottest trends around. Try our seamed nylons and enjoy our care tips that will make sure you get to wear our quality stockings for a long time to come.
Control Top Hose Are Beautiful And Functional
Sometimes you just need a little bit of help to get a great figure. Control top pantyhose can help nip in your waist to give you more of an hourglass figure.

Making The Most Of Your Thigh Highs
Fashion hosiery has made a huge comeback. In addition to regular length hose, women today can also choose from a wide array of thigh highs to complement their wardrobe. Here are some tips on how to choose the right type of stockings for your body shape and your wardrobe.
Thigh highs are great for women with less than perfect calves. The thigh highs naturally direct the eyes upward and give a slimmer and more streamlined look to even short legs. Many of the thigh highs today, such as the Burning Kiss Over The Knees, offer a sheer looking thigh high. The tops are made of reinforced material so you don’t have to wear garters unless you choose. You can enjoy sheer thigh highs, thigh highs with tulle decorations and Lycra fabric with a seam up the middle.
The great thing about thigh highs is that you can wear them with skirts of any length and they will look great. Wearing them with short skirts is the ultimate in feminine allure. Wearing thigh highs with long skirts gives the impression that you are wearing regular fashion hose, but you know what’s underneath that business skirt!
Decorative stockings are all the rage in fashion right now. Hosieree.com can offer flower designs, tattoo designs, and even warm thigh highs for cold winter days. The length of our thigh highs can range from just over the knee to all the way up the thigh so you can find the look you want.
When choosing among the many types of decorative thigh high stockings, you are virtually unlimited in your choices. We offer some of the best quality thigh highs and many of our thigh highs have flowered lace tops for that perfect final touch of beauty. You can even find stockings that have a pearl colored sheen that will complement any outfit. From the bedroom to the boardroom, we have everything you need for stockings.
Our thigh highs are made with quality Lycra, yarn, spandex and silicone so they feel silky smooth on your skin. You can find invisible toe, reinforced toe and reinforced tops so the hose will last. The lace tops are made to hold your hose in place, so although you can certainly wear garters with our thigh highs, you shouldn’t need to.
Get started with your collection of sexy thigh highs from Hosieree.com! We have great prices, beautiful stockings and the best quality around.
Your Special Day & Special Night
So you’ve handled all the most important things except for one: the dress, the venue, the photographer, the catering, shoes, hair and make-up, bridesmaids, groomsmen and you’ve even taken care of everything for your groom.
The last thing on your list is figuring out your bridal hosiery!
There are a few things you should remember, however. You have to think on what style would go best with your dress. But not only that, you have to pay special mind to gown silhouette and the fabric composition. If your dress is form-fitting you may want to try some of our Support Hosiery options, like our Beauty and Comfort Tutto Nudo Support Tights. These Support Tights work to flatten your tummy for a natural look, so you don’t have to worry about sucking in those last few stubborn pounds that just would not come off.
Now think about your feet. What’s on them? Are you wearing peep toes or closed toe shoes for the big day? Are they boot-style or sandal-style? This matters, but not when you opt in for some of our hosiery options that come with the added benefit of a closed toe.
The most difficult thing will likely be deciding between nude, ivory, white, opaque, or sheer black tights. But if you’re looking for something that’s got a little sex appeal, go for the opaque option. Or really be bold and aim for a fishnet. This choice is all about your personal style so don’t let anyone dictate your choice.
Our last tip is don’t sacrifice comfort for style. There are plenty of times when this is okay to do. As women, we’ve all been there. But your wedding day is no time for unladylike grab-tucks and fidgets so avoid it as best you can by selecting a signature set of hosiery from Hosieree.com. This includes but is not limited to such styles as our Alica Fashion Knee-High with Lace Top which is everything a bridal knee-high should be with its floral lace border, light grey bow; and our Anemone Fashion Pantyhose, a popular option that shows off your silky smooth skin through the semi-sheer tights and diamond patterns.
Visit our entire list of bridal hosiery to select the pair that you’ll swear was made just for your special day.
