How to Attach Hosiery to Garters

Alternatives to Hosiery

Young women and older adults eventually get tired of putting on the same old hosiery every day. It is one more thing to do when dressing, and it is almost expected when working in professional environments. Break out of the hosiery routine, and consider alternatives to hosiery. A small change to every day dress like hosiery can liven up your wardrobe and renew your interest in fashion.

Tights


You remember the tights everyone wore as little girls. Times change and women of all ages are now re-thinking tights. They are a lot warmer than pantyhose and more fashionable in some ways. Tights come in every color imaginable, and some tights are even textured for a whole new look.


Mix and match tight colors with short skirts or cover up pale legs with comfy, cozy tights. If you still want a natural look, go for beige-colored tights that work fine with any outfit.


Try a new look with footless tights. If you have great legs, draw attention to them with footless tights that stop just above the ankle and add an adorable ankle bracelet.


Boots


Add a couple pairs of new stylish boots to your wardrobe. Boots are a great way to stay a bit warmer during the fall and winter seasons and oh so fashionable. Check out a new look with designer cowgirl boots matched with a cut skirt for weekend get-aways.


Air Stockings


If you are tired of putting on pantyhose day after day and paying for replacements, consider air stockings. Check out this great alternative to hosiery, which just sprays on. Choose from bronze, terra cotta or all natural looks. Air stockings give the look of silk, feel natural, but does not tear or run like real stockings.


Fishnets


If you are in the mood for fun or just want a whole new look, break out a new pair of fishnets. Try a neutral color to get started and see what you think. Pick out a couple of outfits in your closet that need updating and match them up with striking new fishnets in bold colors.
