Movie: Meet Joe Black

This movie involves a big news company. As such, you can expect to see them dress up in nice business attire. You only get to see occasional glimpses of black-hosiery clad legs, but it makes it a nice treat.

If you are looking for a movie to watch this Friday, then I recommend this. I saw it on Netflix.

I gave Meet Joe Black 4/5 stars, because they did a great job of conveying the emotions at a basic level through mostly dialog. A lot of the emotion was conveyed through body language, as well, but the characters seemed so stoic, that it was hard to know the details.

If you want to practise writing emotional stories, then look to this movie for some good examples.

Is He Wearing Pantyhose? #2

I was browsing through Nextag, and I found an image that was interesting. Usually, I show you a guy in these photos, and we need to determine whether or not he is wearing, right? This time [which will probably be the last time], I show you a photo of Mediven Plus compression hosiery, and you tell me if one of the models is a guy.

The description says that it is appropriate for men and women, so I think that it is safe to make an assumption.

This is significant, because if the model is a guy, then this would be 1 of the more mainstream photos of a guy modelling hosiery. I think that that is cool.

Hosiery In Wikimedia: Lucky Rockette Between Lucky Sailors

Who is luckier: the Rockette or the sailors? The Rockette got to be in all the photos that I found of the event, and she is being escorted by 2 sailors. I think that the sailors are the luckier people, though. ;^P

Fill Web Pages With Hosiery Images For You

Most of us do not enjoy looking at banner ads, but here is a chance for us to make those banner ads show us some nice hosiery photos. The rest of my post tells you all.

Sheers With Double Helix Design

For those of you who have an unquenchable thirst for hosiery with words and pictures, CNET wrote an article about this ThinkGeek hosiery. CNET calls them stockings, but ThinkGeek calls them pantyhose. You can see the comments at the bottom of the page to confirm it.

If you look at the additional photo on ThinkGeek, you'll see some small snags [but no yarns pulled out]. I suspect that they are very delicate. Also the photo shows what appears to be a reinforced toe [as opposed to a shadow toe or run-resistant toe]. No matter what, the thicker toe fabric shows you the colour of the hosiery. I find that the hosiery leg is so sheer, that it is hard to know what the colour is supposed to be.

Another interesting thing that I noticed from the comments on the ThinkGeek page is that women might be inclined to try this hosiery, when otherwise they would not. Perhaps that is the way to win over women and men who are normally resistant to such things.

Do you want to wear this? Do you know of others who want it?

Tried Engergizers Medium Support Hosiery

• 
• 

Men, do you need a bit support for your legs, this summer?

Although these do not seem to offer the same support as the medium support opaques, I find that they are still a delight to wear, and that they offer a pleasantly smooth feel.

I decided to wear these, because I do want some support, but I am feeling a bit of a "squeeze", when it comes to income. I figured that I should get the best support possible, but it is more important to use up the hosiery that I already have.

The medium support opaques feel so good, that I had to summon all my resolve to resist dipping into my inventory to use that. Once I have sold off more of my stock, and until I need more, I will try to use what I already have in my drawers.

Work Place Dress Code

This fall, you might want to dress up a bit more for work.

Even if you cannot read a word, you should still look at the article photo. Then again, you would not know that, if you cannot read. :^/

I can totally see where everybody in the article is coming from. I, myself, do not even dress very well, when it comes to work wear. I usually try to just pass [no wonder I don't get promoted :^O]. However, I think that it is not good to fight the push for a better dress code.

Looking more professional is always the better thing to do. I heard that in a bad economy, customers tend to judge staff more highly, when the staff dress well. Frankly, that Rachel in red looks trust worthy and fantastic.

Remember, try to not think about whether or not the dress code should be according to office policy. Focus more on the subconscious impressions that the clients and customers will get when they first see you.

Do not let me be the only person to give advice here. Tell us the facts in the comments below! Just be sure to let other readers know that I am right and you are wrong. ;^P Seriously, let us know what you think.

Linda's Hosiery Is Going Out Of Business [50%-70% Off Sale]

They are having a clearance sale. It is very sad. I wish that I could help them. If you would like to stock up, then visit them. I could pick stuff up for some of you, if you can wait until July 31.

1055 Georgia St W

Vancouver BC V6E 3P3

(604) 669-2854

It is amazing how things have changed. I can still remember going into her store, and recording some prices on paper. Oh, how naive I was to think that she would let me help! I felt like the lady was politely telling me to get out. Well, she sure does not mind any help now, does she? I cannot really blame her, but obviously, she could have used any help that she could have got.

Hosiery In Wikimedia: Very Young Ballarinas

I do not quite understand why young girls want to be ballerinas, but as long as they are not hurting their feet, then I am okay with it. I think that it is like becoming a princess for them: a dream come true. It is good to know that hosiery plays a part of that.

Energizers Medium Support Opaque Tights [style #19284] Lengths

Black size C is a tiny bit longer than black size B. After noticing the slight differences in length of Silks Waistband-Free Tights [style #19295], I decided to give Energizers Medium Support Tights [style #19284] another measure. It turns out that the panty portion and the leg portion of black size C are a tiny bit longer. Read the rest of the blog post to see what I will do with this hosiery.

Silks Waistband-Free Tights [style #19295]

I finally got a chance to carefully examine the Silks Waistband-Free Tights [style #19295] in black of all 3 sizes. It seems that the recent batches of #19295 in black are relatively all correct. I highly recommend that consumers of #19295 in black read the rest of my post for the specifics.

I Want To Buy All Of Your Silks Waistband-Free Tights [style #2395]

The package also calls them waistless tights. I am interested in clearing out all of your stock, whether you are a small business, or big department store. I will gladly pay for shipping.

I am also willing to send my customers to you. I am pretty nice sometimes.

Please contact me at Hosiery Advocate's Boutique contact page. You can also leave a comment below. You can leave an email address or web site address. If you know my email address, then please feel free to email me.

Silks Waistband-Free Tights Style #2395 Probably All Gone

On Saturday, I visited LovelyLegsAndIntimates, to buy her last stock of Silks Waistband-Free Tights [style #2395]. Amazingly, she had a stash of 18 pairs: 12 in black size 2, and 6 in black size 3. Just like the black size 3 pairs that I received, these were so short that they should be sold as black size 1.

I used the black size "3" pairs to fill an already made order.

I will try to sell off the black size "2" pairs to a preferred customer who will get a first choice on whether or not she wants some, because she has made a large order in the past without much fuss, and because she has already requested more for when she needs them.

I think that this is probably the last of style #2395, because at the beginning of July, I ordered more Silks Waistband-Free Tights, hoping to get more of #2395, but it turns out that the manufacturer sent me more of the newer style. So, the last order brought me none, and the order before that brought me none. I also see no web sites on the web offering this. I think that we are completely out, except a few small stores, or department stores.

Hosiery In Wikimedia: Irish Dancing Video

Finished Third Pair Of Shorts

During Friday evening, I finished off the third pair, since I was going to do laundry, and since the project was fresh in my mind.

This time around, it was an air force blue pair of shorts. I bought a blue pair of pants to hem into shorts, because I wanted some blue clothing to wear with my blue hosiery. My blue hosiery collection needs more attention.

For those of you just joining us, you can read about my experience with the second pair. The rest of my post tells you more about the sewing aspect.

Finished Another Pair Of Shorts

There was 1 minor mistake, but I was able to recover, by undoing a few stitches. I also had to anchor the relevant threads, but other than that, it worked out okay.

For those of you just joining us: wearing shorts is a fundamental part of wearing hosiery openly; therefore it is crucial that men have nice shorts.

These particular shorts are white and casual. If I take photos with them, then I might try to look like I am wearing a tennis outfit.

The rest of the post is about my experiences in creating these shorts.

Am I A Hosiery Advocate?

I would like to think so.

However, I was editing my e-commerce sites, and I found a blurb of text that really made me wonder. I found that the text was entirely geared towards women. :^D I had to think through it, and really convince myself that men might be interested in it, too.

I guess that we can never really trust ourselves.

Used Hosiery: Blow Dart Fletching

Tampons can be used for survival, so you might want to bring a few when you go camping. A few of the article's suggestions can be achieved with hosiery as well. If you need to make a blow dart, then you can add some hosiery at the rear end of each dart to act as fletching.

Have any of you tried doing that before?

Wore Shorts And Sheers Today

I was quite happy with the results. I wore all black, except for the painted design on the shirt. The overall appearance was not super awesome, but it was adequate.

I went out to participate in a university research project. The person in charge was very attractive. She wore a short skirt, and black sheers. It was fun to get a close up look. For a couple of moments, when I was expected [but not required] to look away, I glanced back, and saw that she was checking out my legs. I wish that I could have felt her hosiery or even asked her out, but I am sure that it would not have been so simple. It was a pleasant experience, though.

Next time, I plan to whistle at her, if she is dressed in hosiery.

Don't Squander Your Health

Hosiery In Wikimedia: Irish Dancing

Celtic celebrations are starting up all over the world. At least they are starting up in Vancouver. I thought that this would be a great way to get us in the mood.

When I think of Irish Dancing, like River Dance, I automatically think of the beautiful legs that they have and the black opaques.

In the first photo, I noticed that the lovely lass on the right is not blurry like the other 2. I think that the dancer on the left started a routine, and then the middle girl joined in, while the right gal was waiting to join in.

Another Attempt At Dealing With Energizers Medium Support Tights [style #19284]

You might recall that I tried to deal with the hosiery length problem, but did not have much success. The manufacturer is not very flexible.

I came up with a new idea that might help. I plan to go into Sears and open some of their untaped packages, and then compare their black size C pairs with their graphite-grey size C pairs. If the grey pairs are longer, then I will be able to point that out to the manufacturer, and get them to explain why 2 pairs of different colours have different lengths, even though the sizes are supposed to be the same.

This is not over!

Modelled Raisa Hosiery By Fiore

A while ago, I did a photo shoot, and wanted to show you what it looked like. I also wanted to show you what Raisa hosiery [my review], looked like. Here is my chance to hit 2 birds with 1 stone. Enjoy!

I did not just take a photo and post it on the web. The Stylish Fox also used an closeup of my leg for the Raisa Opaque Tights [by Fiore] product page.

This is a real milestone for men in hosiery. Typically, men do not model hosiery. Unisex hosiery and specifically men's hosiery are modelled by men, but even still, those opportunities are rare. Also, there is some hosiery that could be unisex, but it is packaged as women's hosiery, so women model it. Men typically do not get to model for this.

I read about 1 fellow who did this, and he got paid, too, if I recall correctly. He appeared to be so feminine, that he was able to pass for a woman.

In this case, I am not trying to pass for a woman, and I am also trying to not look like a man. In the photo, I am just modeling the side of the leg, for the purposes of giving a realistic closeup look. Since it is not showing a lot of the body, it will not be a turn off for picky women. Also, the side of the leg does not always come across as muscular. At least, it does not for me.

I think that that is where normal guys can contribute to the hosiery industry. There are very few photos that give a close up look at the fabric.

Would any of you men or women model for the purposes of selling hosiery?

Went Out In Sheers

It has been so long since I wore sheers. Yesterday, I wore sheers that had a beautiful shine. The sun reflected on it, and made me feel proud.

I was a bit hesitant at first, but it seemed like the right thing to do. I have spent so much time wearing opaques, that I feel that I have lost sight of the goal. If I wear opaques, then people will think that I am wearing athletic wear. The athletic style should be good for people who are pressured to not wear hosiery. It would come across as being casual and athletic. With sheers, we could have the same, but sheers would break down boundaries more.

Also, as I walked, I looked at my legs, and enjoyed the shine. It had such distinct line. The rest of the fabric shined as well, but it seemed almost matte in comparison. I will write another blog post to properly define it, since I have never heard anybody speak about the shiny line.

Do any of you insist on wearing only opaques?

Designing Hosiery And Organizing Hosiery Products For Ecommerce Sites

Lately, I have been thinking about starting my own brand of hosiery.

I think that a key aspect of a successful hosiery line is lots of information. Giving out as much information as possible on the company website would help to support sellers of my products. Also, providing a promotional kit to the various companies that sell my products, would help also.

Another key aspect is providing assistance to the consumers. I intend to create a style of skin colour hosiery, which means that there will be huge variety of colours. It would be nice to have some kind of tool like the MAC Cosmetics Foundation Finder.
