It's my fav of the ones mentioned above because it's the only one pale enough for me, but as a bonus they feel great on. Thankfully fairly long-wearing given the price.</p> <p>Happy celebrating! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843750 Sun, 10 Sep 2017 13:06:24 +0000 Anonymous 1843750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, your shopping story has me in stitches! If you get tired of the day job, you should try comedy writing! Haven't we all done something that crazy in a dept store?<br /> Donna, it sounds like you and I are leg twins! The chunky thigh/slim ankle combo does make fit a challenge. Thanks for the tip about Nordstrom brand control top! And that they are available at the Rack. I never would have given them a second look without your rec. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843668 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 23:46:57 +0000 DonnaF 1843668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nordstrom RACK's Nordstrom brand ultra sheers.&nbsp; They are about $6.&nbsp; They are labeled control top, and I hate, hate, hate control top so I had to check the label twice because they don't squeeze at all.&nbsp; They just feel like thicker reinforced tops.&nbsp; I am 5' 1" with extremely short legs with chunky thighs and calves but skinny ankles, but I haven't noticed ankle bagging. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843659 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 22:42:17 +0000 Anonymous 1843659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to buy a pair of nude hose for some event or another recently, and I was sure whoever was monitoring the security cameras at Hudson Bay was either ready to call the police, or was falling off their chair laughing. I have not worn hose in &nbsp;I don't even know how long. &nbsp;Tights sure, but not sheer hose. I swear I picked up every single package in every brand trying to decide between the various options and combinations thereof: &nbsp;control top, non control top, ultra sheer, glossy sheer, semi-sheer, reinforced panty, no panty, no toe, reinforced toe, no waistband, regular waistband, &nbsp;buy 2 get 3rd free, buy one get one for half, 30% off this brand but not that brand, what is beige anyways???? &nbsp;I was acting like I'd never been in a department store before. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843642 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 21:03:35 +0000 Anonymous 1843642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies, for the input.<br /> Angie and Sterling, I had no idea Nordstrom has a house brand. That is definitely worth taking a look at!<br /> LBD, thanks for confirming Wolford is a possibilty that won't run too tall. They have a store near me, so I will check them out.<br /> Elpgal, I really don't like the feel of those silicone bands on thigh-highs, so they are a no-go for me.<br /> Suzanne, I agree that support varieties do stay up better, but they have that shiny look that I don't want on such an important occasion.<br /> Jane, thanks for letting me know what you think about the different denier (deniers? - no idea what the plural is!). I gather from the Internet that nude tights are kind of a "thing" in the UK right now due to Kate Middleton wearing them. I would think they'd make a lot of sense in your climate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843616 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 18:20:08 +0000 Jane 1843616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For the first time ever, I have started wearing nude tights, about 2 weeks ago. My selection criteria was to make sure they were affordable, and broadly the right colour. Because I haven't worn them before, I struggled with them, but now I am getting used to it. I went for a John Lewis own brand, which I think is UK based only. They are affordable if I only manage to eek out a pair for a couple of wears. I have also chosen 10 denier rather than 15.&nbsp;</p> <p>I am kind of pleased that I have managed to make a break from thicker black tights.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have also really enjoyed fishnet nude tights. But I struggle to wear them every day, as they aren't as comfy to wear with flats.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843602 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 16:25:22 +0000 Suzanne (ambergreen) 1843602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When we had to wear such things for work back in the 80s, I discovered that I should look for hose marked as "support" (such as Hanes Silk Reflections, as recommended above). They fit better on petite me with slim ankles and lasted longer. I never wore regular hose again as they did that bagging (and snagging) thing. And "support" can come in either control top or not. </p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843591 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 15:21:15 +0000 elpgal 1843591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nordstrom and Macy's both have non-control top options in various shades. Would thigh highs work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843584 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 14:38:26 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1843584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For last minute stuff or everyday stuff, I like Hanes Silk Reflections, but I usually get control top. I'm pretty sure they have non-control top, too. I get them at Target. </p> <p>If I want to splurge for an occasion, I go to Wolford. (And I wear fabric gloves to put the hosiery on, so I don't snag it!)</p> <p>I'm 4'11", for reference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843574 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 14:18:03 +0000 Anonymous 1843574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I buy Donna Karen and Nordstorms brand. &nbsp;One of the two wears better than the other. &nbsp;I can't remember which one it was though. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843572 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 14:08:39 +0000 Angie 1843572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Nordies house brand.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-nude-pantyhose#post-1843571 Sat, 09 Sep 2017 14:02:49 +0000 Anonymous 1843571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Reaching out to y'all for recommendations. I haven't worn nude panty hose in years, but have an upcoming need to have a pair available in case of cooler-than-expected weather for my daughter's wedding in a couple of weeks.<br /> My specific requirements are:<br /> 1) NO control top<br /> 2) A good size range - I'm pretty short (pants inseam of 27-28 in.) and slender ankles, so lots of sheer stockings tend to bag at my ankles.<br /> 3) Color - suitable for medium-tones Caucasian complexion.<br /> 4) Reinforced toe is fine.<br /> Any and all suggestions greatly appreciated. </p>
