ack! HATE pantyhose!! They're a torture device devised by DA MAN to keep us down, yo!
Angel...you bettah rip them puppies off right now!! But that's not as bad as an acquaintance of mine who wore (to a wedding reception, mind you) a shiny aqua midriff top with matching mini skirt (the woman is near 50 as well), and matching sandals, WITH pantyhose...and that "line" where the legs of the hose meet the "thigh reinforcement" area was well below the hemline of the skirt!!!!
I KID YOU NOT.
Somebody call the Fashion Police!
I *only* where pantyhose when absolutely necessary, which is like, maybe twice a year. Maybe. I wear pants 99% of the time, and my skirts are all ankle-brushing. And as I'm in Texas, from April to early October I don't wear any hose/socks with my shoes, period. I hate shorts too. Thank goodness for capris!
I do wear
Spanx though - anyone tried these? They're pretty great - holds you in, no VPL, and no thigh lines.
