Fishnets. So many people associate this type of nylon with hookers and Halloween, but fishnets (depending on the type) can be an elegant addition to your holiday attire.
When purchasing fishnets, I prefer a tightly meshed nylon. I am not a fan of thigh highs, diamond-net or wide mesh fishnets, as I think the smaller loop is a bit more classic. Also, (and I feel I shouldn't have to say this), I would not wear white or red fishnets unless I am attending a costume party as a "naughty nurse" or perhaps "naughty pirate"??? I don't know...nuff' said there.
I found a website that offers fishnets in 51 different colors, and I highly recommend you check it out. I ordered them in pale gray and brown at $9 per pair. I'll keep you posted as to the quality and comfort. If I like them, I will probably order a few more shades (steering clear of yellow, orange, etc., and leaning more towards the neutrals...again, do I need to say that??).
Sometimes, it's the accessory that makes the outfit. You can choose a normal, run-of-the-mill pair of nude nylons, or you can accentuate your legs by adding a bit of texture and style to your hosiery. You make the call.
