Pantyhose for Business – What To Wear

1 Comment

Women in the corporate world are often told that if they’re going on an interview or going to work, it’s often recommended that dark pantyhose are worn.  Has anyone ever asked why?  Business attire is usually boring, drab and gray for a reason.  Since you’re at work and not out at a singles bar, business clothing is designed to minimize physical attractiveness as much as possible.  Dark hose are said to take attention away from a woman’s legs by hiding them in the dark, namely dark blue or black. 

Even if you’re wearing business attire, that’s no reason to hide everything about yourself.  It’s supposed to be subdued, but wearing light-colored or nude-colored hosiery isn’t necessarily taboo.  If you feel like wearing it, feel free to do so!  Business attire is very restrictive in the first place, so the type of pantyhose you wear isn’t as big a deal as, say, the length of your skirt.  Try to mix things up by wearing light-colored pantyhose with dark colored suits, and dark-colored pantyhose with light colored suits.  This provides a nice contrast that lets you stand out, but not so much that you draw unnecessary attention to yourself.

Myths and Facts about Pantyhose

6 Comments

There are many myths abound about pantyhose.You’ve probably heard them.
Let’s run through a few of them, shall we?The very first one is that pantyhose
tend to be too tight and restrictive. This is not true. Good-fitting pantyhose can
conform to any leg, so the wearer shouldn’t feel any discomfort or bunching.
In fact, the pantyhose should take the shape of the leg so well that the person
wearing them won’t notice them at all.

Speaking of stretching, that’s another common myth: pantyhose can be so
easily stretched out of shape that it’s better to buy a smaller size. While it’s true
that pantyhose will stretch to fit the leg of the wearer, they shrink back to their
original size when you take them off. Getting a smaller size will result in the
pantyhose stretching way too much, and that could cause unneeded wear on
the pantyhose over time.Therefore, you’re much better off just buying
pantyhose in the correct size.

   The third myth is that it’s far too hot to wear pantyhose in the summer.
   This isn’t true either! Pantyhose are usually made out of material that is
   very breathable and heat resistant. Going back to the earlier myth, the
   wearer shouldn’t feel the pantyhose at all—even in summer. It might
   be recommended that light colored pantyhose be worn in the summer,
   but even dark colors can be worn without a problem.

  Now, is it true that pantyhose made with Lycra are more expensive? No,
  that’s not necessarily true either. The pricing depends on the manufacturer
  and the cost of production, much like any other product.. The more expensive
  an item is to make, the more expensive it’ll be when it’s sold in stores.
  Companies want to recoup their investment in creating a product, after all.
  Business talk aside, pantyhose with Lycra in it is not necessarily more
  expensive than all other brands.

Men Like To Watch the Women Wearing Stockings

41 Comments


    The title of this article is true. If you don’t believe me, just
   head to a public place and watch the men. Yes, they’ll be
   looking at just about every halfway decent looking woman
   who passes by them, but they tend to pay extra attention to
   a woman wearing a sexy pair of stockings. Whether it’s the
   look or the feel that turns them on, men seem to be captivated
   by them. Is it a hosiery fetish of some sort going around? If you
   think for a minute and look at the clues, you’d understand that
   its not such so far-fetched.
    
     You see this very often in films: The long look at a woman’s leg
   while she slowly pulls up a pair of stockings. This is sometimes
   accompanied with some saxophone-heavy music. It looks sexy,
   and it sounds sexy. Saxophone-heavy music makes anything sexy,
   to be honest. But the visual of the woman pulling up the stocking
   and the music accompanying it have been used together so often
   that this scene plays over and over in a mans head as he watches
   a woman wearing stockings pass by. The music is playing in his
   head, and he wants that woman to walk toward him in the worst
   way possible.

  So, on second thought, maybe there is some sort of hosiery fetish at work here.Countless films featuring women in garter belts and stockings may have something to do with it. If you see that enough, much like the saxophone music, you’ll start to associate stockings with all things sexy.Maybe this is why men enjoy watching women wearing stockings so much; because they equate it with sex. Perhaps only suspender-imitation tights can look as much attractive and seductive.They became popular among women who find them practical and easy to wear and at the same time extremely feminine and sexy.
These ladies know exactly what they’re doing, and if the guys are paying this much attention to their legs, they must be doing something right.

Both achieve a fun, flirty leg with their printed hosiery. Remember, if you are wearing Glamour opaque-lace tights during the Fall season, it is always a fashion faux pas to wear peep-toe pumps. You can, however let your toes go bare if you wear a footless legging like Rain.

Patterned legs are a hot option for Fall 2010.Shea hosiery fashion trend boasts elegance and sophistication when it comes to leg-wear. Because patterned legs can make a big statement, wearing a subdued ensemble helps balance your look. The 2010 hosiery collection offers great choices in fantastic patterns. Land andLina fashion pantyhose embossed with a flower and leaf pattern can add femininity to a business skirt suit. Geometric – Funky fashion tights, grey and blue angled lines patterns add curious innocence to your look. Subtle patterns on a sheer black pantyhose Amy paired with a great pair of heels can make your legs look endless.

With all the talk about patterns, is there any room for color in the 2010 hosiery fashion trend? Absolutely. Petal and Vanish hints of color are popping up on legs all around. Consider wearing a sheer nude hose Tatuage or Dali decorated with tiny crystals. It’s sure to turn heads when this embellished nylon Strip 40 is paired with a cocktail dress and a sexy pair of heels.
