animal print
Gatta mock stock
This is a first time for Gatta and I wasn’t let down with this pair called Loretta. A mock stocking with a leopard print thigh high garter. Good and sturdy, with a well defined pattern. Comfortable with minimal wrinkling. a very enjoyable pair of tights.
Wolford Tiger
Girl power with some Wolford Tiger tights. These were worn on animal print week 2016. Still bold, still comfortable, still very Wolford.
Package from Mayfair!
Package from Mayfair! Followers I have been shopping. I am preparing myself for next year!!
I got this yesterday and opened it to find,
Thoughtfully wrapped to protect my delicates. It was like Christmas day all over!
It seems a shame to not to keep them in this way, I had to rip open all this beautiful packaging to reveal what was inside,
Thank you Mayfair Stockings! I am sure this is the beginning of a fulfilling relationship.
APW Finale!
Animal print week, APW finale!!! Bet you didn’t guess it was going to be mermaid! Not sure if the tail should be on the back or front, finally after a bit of toing and froing, this and thating it’s been decided to be on the front. The back is a good spot but like seamed hosiery have to be placed in the perfect position to gain full mermaid effect.
From a supplier in China, they come in both black and natural. The tail is glittery and sparkly thus giving a shimmery scale feel to it. I love this pattern!
After a day of wear they unfortunately laddered
Fortunately the ladder runs along the mermaid tail and looks like part of the pattern, they also kept falling down and the glitter was a bit scratchy on my skin. They are such a fun pair that I’m going to get another wear out of them especially if I’m a bit clever with the nail varnish.
Hope you all enjoyed APW, I’ve had so much fun doing this week.
Special Guest Appearance Giraffe
I bought this pair of giraffe tights for my friend and have hassled her to wear them for ages. Animal print week was the perfect week to hassle her some more. It also meant I could wear more animal print, in the guise of this pair of snake print that was first worn in Sept.
As stated before the snake skin pair are thought to be Vera Wang control top tights, which really are control top and squeeze you in. The Giraffe print are by Pamela Mann and called fuzzy giraffe, so jealous they didn’t have my size.
Tiger tiger burning bright
Tiger tiger burning bright. I’m on fire! Second instalment of animal print week with this pair of Wolford tights called, yes you’ve guessed it, “Tiger”. Born in the year of the tiger this is my animal and I perfectly match it with my fiery character. I should really have worn these next week but unfortunately Chinese New Year clashes with my Valentines week but at least you all know what next week’s theme is and look forward to the joys I’m going to present.
Wolford patterns are always strong and bold and this pair does not buck that trend. Great statement pair of tights!
Animal Print Week
Animal print week, this week. Very excited over the hosiery I’ve got prepared. Starting with leopard, this Veneziana brand called fittingly, Leopardo. It’s in grey but that should contrast well with the black dress I’m wearing. Also in a 60 denier it should keep me warm too. Quite a comfortable pair of tights, luxurious soft feel around the toes.
Snakeskin cover-up
Grey patterned tights, bit of a snake skin look about them. Sorry forgotten brand, part of my opened collection. Control top so a bit of a squeeze after a long day at work.
Later thoughts… After weeks of thinking, I think these are Vera Wang.
