This spring/summer I feel that the fashion world has really neglected my legs. They have completely put hosiery on the back burner. This was a real shock to me especially since fall and winter were all about layering over tights and leggings. Hosiery is seen all over the run way on various models so why is it so difficult to find a simple pair of fishnets? I have run to all of the stores that I frequented during the fall and winter for tights and leggings in search of the spring/ summer equivalent in fishnets. I was only successful in 3 department stores Dillard's, Nordstrom, and Macy's. My local Dillard's had only 3 pairs of fishnets in nude on clearance, I bought all 3. More luck at Nordstrom and Macy's when I ran smack dab into the HUE and Jessica Simpson displays. Both offer black, white, brown and nude colors and JS offers textured fishnets. They range from $12 to $15 per pair, but they do last for quite a few wears. HUE also offers chiffon hose, which are very similar to nylons, just in a variety of bright spring/summer colors to liven up any pair of shorts or make a dress pop. These light weight breathable versions of tights are great for the warm weather seasons. I have officially become a fan of hosiery and not just my sexy thigh highs with a lacy garter belt either, the whole sha- bang.
All these colors, nets, styles for all times and still avoiding spidey veins, refreshing. Your legs say thank you.
Who knew that your mom's nylons could be so fun?
