Sexy Thigh High Stockings

You cannot be a proper tart without sexy thigh high stockings, so let’s talk about how to do this correctly. A lot of women go out and pick up something from Fredericks and expect it to automatically look good on them. Not so, sister. That said – any woman can look good in these.
The key is making sure they fit, you can’t just drop into the local lingerie shop and pick up one size fits all unless you’re thin enough to know you can look good in them. The biggest mistake women make with these is getting hung up on the size on the label. Everyone’s legs are shaped differently, and just because you’re in the height/weight box that says a size smaller doesn’t mean you really are. You may have to experiment a bit.
Note: We're discussing the stockings you might see on a cabaret girl -- this is not about regular pantyhose, socks, or anything else you’d expect to see on a nun.




Right, let’s talk about styles first.

  • Garter Stockings These are the sexy hawt mama stockings. And they can look good on everyone as long as you have the right size. They need to fit, not dig into your thighs and create lines that shouldn’t be there. These can have lace tops or not, depends on what you want. They can come in any color or level of transparency, as well.
  • Hold Ups These are the kind that stay up on their own. Well, they’re supposed to, anyway. They often have a lace trim around the top that keeps them in place. To be very honest, these are usually crap, no matter who’s made them. For starters, they just never seem to fit the way they’re meant to. Not on me, anyway, and not on anyone else I’ve ever discussed it with. They tend to be uncomfortable cos that lace always feels like it’s digging in and it can itch like heck. It can also leave lace patterns on your thighs for hours. Oh, they look great on skinny minny models with no curve to their legs. If that’s you, go for it. If you have real legs, however, they can look ridiculous.
  • What’s the sexiest of the sexiest? Seamed, worn with garter belts. These will inspire any man who even catches a glimpse of you. I can’t tell you why that little stripe running down the back of the leg is so appealing, but men do tend to drool over it. This style isn’t hard to come by and they tend to cost the same price – might as well go the whole 9 yards and get the good stuff.
