I had hot pink fishnets that matched my hot pink mini dress and hot pink shoes :-) I could probably been seen coming from miles away. :lol: |
In the 60's we wore fishnet stockings and colored tights... how about the white go-go boots, anyone?
|
Had some of those too :lol: :lol: :lol:
|
Fishnet, colored tight, white go-go boots...I was there!

Ugh! Pantyhose were invented by a MAN for sure. Instrument of torture, especially in hot weather.

I remember the garter belt and hose. I use to think panty hose were wonderful but after having to wear them for many, many years while working, I am happy to say now I do not own a pair and never intend to purchase them.
Do any of you remember your Mother or Aunts during WWII putting make up on their legs and using an eyebrow pencil to draw the seam line on the back of the leg? Nylons were not available during the war. |

Then somehow the wonderful pantyhose came to be. I still love those rascals. I always but a bigger size so I don't have to do the pantyhose dance to get them on. Wiggle, wiggle, stretch, down , up, wiggle more, almost there, wiggle, pull, tug and wahlah.... finished. Whew. tired thinking about it. Oh and did anyone go thru the Mary Kay colored leg makeup which went on nice enough but once your sat adn swetaed a little, there were white spots behind the knees etc and touchups required. Why in the world did we go to such lengths to look Nice.??????? Laughing at the memorires.
Garter belts, oh yeah, very sexy, but my short fat legs never fit them right and I can hear the snap as they came loose when I sat down too quickly. ROFL.......... |
I don't own a pair of pantyhose and don't intend on buying any either. Wore them while I worked and after I retired they all went out the window. I remember girdles and garter belts to. I usually only wear pants now and when I do wear a skirt, there are still no pantyhose. Comfort for me nowadays.
