Gabriella fishnet holdups

I bought these Gabriella fishnet holdups (calze model 153) because I wanted a large holed fishnet pattern. These fit the requirements perfectly and from one of my favourite suppliers, mystockings. I was a bit worried about toe strangulation

but the holes are big enough not to give that sensation even though my toes were through the net. They produce a really seductive look and a nostalgic glamour that some older ladies reminisce about. The floral lacetop is rather pretty too.

Colours define the mood

Isn’t it funny how colours define the mood. I participated in a poll recently conducted by annie@lingeriebound on the colour of hosiery for valentines, which was sexier red or black? Black won if you wanted to know. This led to me connecting my thinkings with how colours are associated with mood. I wore these today, Trasparenze holdups, Tracee pattern in cream. A floral lace design with a slight lacetop and backseam. The comments were good and bought a sense of nostalgia to my colleagues. However if they were in black the consensus would have been how sexy they were and a few raised eyebrows. So isn’t it funny that colour defines what you think and feel?

Charnos Holdups

Charnos holdups are today’s hosiery of the day. A seamless leg with a cute floral lacetop. Held up well all day and felt silky too. I’ve teamed it up with a glimpse of my car which is cheating a bit to gather extra interest on social media. Hey, I’m just playing the game!

Tied Up – Trasparenze Chelsea Holdups

Looks like I’m a bit tied up with this pair of holdups called Chelsea. The pattern resembles a rope wrapping round the whole leg in a interlinking wavy way. The tops are slighty lacy with a good amount of clingy rubber to provide them with gravity defying properties. They stayed in position all day with no feeling of any looseness or slippage. They are white and I mean very white so at times I felt a bit clownish but that’s due to me not wearing coloured tights very often and having to have an extra long work day I also put on shoes that didn’t match the outfit. However, I can always count on Trasparenze to provide comfortable and fun hosiery.

Gabriella Vera holdups

Gabriella Vera holdups today. Lovely and silky. Floral seam and a lacetop.

I did get a bit of slippage

but after a bit of anti fuzz cleaning (wiping gummy top with wet cloth) I was back to good.

Unfortunately after a days wear I got home to discover this
