pantyhose

[Meenah]

Last week there was someone on Oprah telling people how to dress for success. He said hose should always match shoes. Is this true? I've never heard that.

Re: pantyhose

I don't wear hose/stockings but I wear tights, and when I do, I match them to my shoes usually - it creates a longer look. Unless it's a killer shoe and I want to go for a funkier look.

do you were red tights with your red stilettos? That was you btw with the killer red heels...right?

Re: pantyhose

I usually wear those bare-legged. You mean the patent peep toe with the black tiny grosgrain bow?

STILL LOVE THEM.

YES - LOVE those! I'm soooo jealous...still.

Re: pantyhose

I love the tights look with boots and a sweater dress.

I don't know what the rules are, so I can't help. Just wanted to express my excitement for my favorite fall look.

Re: pantyhose

Luanne, it all depends on the occasion and the outfit. If you're dressing for a corporate environment or an interview, I'd advise to stay on the conservative side and go with nude hose. Depending on the shoe and the outfit, you may want to match hose to shoes for the lengthening effect Lily mentioned but not all colors are good for this (red being one of them). Black is always good, as it also provides slimming effect on top of lengthening. If in doubt, go with black shoes/boots and black opaque tights in colder months and nude hose with beige shoes in warmer months.

Well, ya dingdong, I bought them at Nordstrom at Southpoint... and you're right down the road from Saks, which has a great sale twice a year, plus the Off5th outlet by the airport. Get on it!!!!

Hummmm I didn't know about the outlet.... now I just need some cash to burn, guess I'll have to wait till Christmas.
