Stockings for Daily Wear and Not Just for the Bedroom

Stockings can be portrayed as a garment concealing the foot and lower part of the leg but not for the most part aimed at covering the entire leg! In the olden days stockings were made of cloth unlike the current day selections of cotton, nylon, knitted wool and silk. Half-stockings, also labeled socks cover only the foot and part of the calf.

Pantyhose or tights are quite distinct from hold-ups which are also a kind of stocking which stays up on their own while regular stockings require a suspender belt.

Thigh high stockings are chosen by many owing to its aesthetics, more exposure to air and less hold, reducing challenges from fungus and bacteria and other ease of use mainly in the restroom.

A smart and convenient way to wear a stocking is to wear panties over the stockings.

Modern stockings are designed in various styles in a broad variety of colours.

If you are trend shy then keep away from the sparkle print tights stockings with interwoven silver Lurex threads which make them glossy and gleaming.

The never-ending list of different style and designs include Crocket Garter, Lace Body, Lace garter belt, 5" Lace Top with Opaque Stribe, Back Seam Garter. Back Seam Garter. Back seamed, Back seam with European heel and finishing hole, Beade and Biker zipper stockings and many more.

Inappropriate stockings can break or create poor fashion. If you are wearing a dark dress, dark stockings or hosiery is the best option. The other option colors are charcoal or navy. Flesh colored stockings are fairly safe with almost all attire. I suggest you try for invisibility and sheerness when selecting a stocking.

If you want to feel different and unique, then pick an off the wall pattern with bright colors. Don’t forget that these designs and style are not appropriate for job interviews, weddings and for first dates!
