Stockings & Suspenders

Go on i'll bite...

Usually tacky, but if you wear the right stuff - sexy!

I'm sitting on the fence with this one, hope i don't snag my stockings.

I always thought a nervous tick was one that seen someone approaching with a container of salt :D

they're a lot more comfortable than regular stockings, i can tell you that!

Sexy gets my vote!

OOOOh they hurt! Wore them once to a wedding, they cut off the blood supply in your legs and when you take them off you've got a ruddy big dent round your legs!

and at least in my case by the end of the day they are stretched (and no I'm no cow, and I did have the proper size) and they fall down ANYWAY

I like those hold-ups which seem omnipresent these days. Bit of stocking with a load of rubber up to keep it strapped to the thigh. Lovely.

And, nope, it's not ME wearing 'em!

Well, that's true but I'm trying to live in an ideal world!

I had Jacqueline Bisset in mind as opposed to Hattie Jacques!

Trust me, blokes love them. You've got the silky stocking, a big welt of rubber, and then bare-naked flesh, all within a couple of inches of each other.

Lovely.

Stop that, I like it!

Tell me some more.

Well i think it's only fair that you men should have a very small but thick industrial strength elastic band around your...

I totally agree with AL! Although suspenders also get my vote...not tacky at all!!

I personally like the Pretty Poly ones with the double P (PP) in the lace top, although the rubber bit pulls the hair on my legs.

Sounds worse than having a car crash into you?!

I think they are sexy as long as they aren't too fussy/frilly. Simplicity's sexy to me, and there's little sexiness in having bows that bump up out of your skirt, making you look other sexed. I don't much like the rubberized-top thigh highs, mainly for the reasons mentioned before (and it's less of a thigh size issue than a "walk around downtown, they start losing their punch" thing.

But, overall, I'm more of a fan of wearing those longer men's dress socks that make me look all school girl-ish.

Don't forget to put your hair up in a ponytail and blow some bubbles with your chewing gum.

Nothing further to say, too busy laughing.

i'm with you, melly. i often wear socks that come up either just above or below the knee and a mini-skirt with my mary jane shoes when i go out. the socks stay up surprisingly well.
