How to choose the Right Pair of Pantyhose


As we all know, a good looking pair of legs capture the sight of many.Even more if they are revealed thanks to short dresses and mini skirts. In particular, in such moments stockings have a very important role. Pantyhose are really something you should choose with extreme care. Here are some useful tips for those women who need them!

The following seem very obvious rules but they are a fundamental starting point:

Wear light shoes with light colored hosiery. Wear dark shoes with dark hosiery. And if the shoe has more than one color you can wear hosiery which is colored like the top of the shoe. The elegance of the shoe together with the right denier of the hose are thus proportional. More elegant is the shoe and less denier the hose should be. If your shoes are really classy go for sheer hosiery (15-20 denier) or ultra sheer (less than 15 denier) or even silk. In case you have imperfections on your skin go for heavy pantyhose (around 70 denier).

Do not forget that vertical designs on your hosiery can help you have longer legs. On the other hand, try to avoid horizontal designs on your hosiery  or colors that are too bright like fuchsia or acid green. For those women who have problems with having robust thighs thin ankles you can get away with seamed hosiery. The classic color of hosiery is without doubt black the ideal color for all types of leg.

Tights and hosiery are a great fashion accessory for the fall you still get to wear your great winter dresses without completely freezing. Tights are something that every girl needs in her wardrobe because leggings don't look great under all dresses, and tights give it a light feeling.

I agree with you when you say that the classic color of hosiery is black. It's also my favorite color. keep up the good work :-)
