Judging from your picture, I would say they will either work perfectly for you, or they will be slightly dark. They don't have them online so I'm afraid you'll have to check them out in a store. They're by Merona and they are in the section with trouser socks (there were two trouser socks sections in my store, which was kind of confusing).</p> <p>After trying them on all the way up, I would actually say they are more like regular fishnets and not micro fishnets, but for me that's fine because I was planning to wear them as socks under pants and jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-microfishnet-qs#post-96163 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:48:28 +0000 MsJournalista 96163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Maya!</p> <p>I'm following this thread as well. Although my problem is similar to yours (finding hosiery in the right shade), I'm brown- skinned and African American. I haven't seen this 3-pk in the stores. How would you describe the brown pair? Is it more of a deep chocolate, a taupe brown, etc. I'll keep my out as well, Maya. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-microfishnet-qs#post-96157 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:28:53 +0000 Maya 96157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shana. I await your feedback, if any. My legs are actually pretty light, since they don't get to see much sun, especially this year. I'm surprised many of the options out there are STILL too fair. I'm not really *that* dark. </p> <p>Good point April. I definitely don't want huge holes but smaller holes probably allow less of my own skin tone to come through. It would be nice just to get a pretty sheen from far away without an obvious net covering me.</p> <p>Khris: I have not. Interesting idea though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-microfishnet-qs#post-95935 Tue, 22 Sep 2009 23:58:23 +0000 shana 95935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I have the same problem which is why I have yet to get any "nude" fishnets though I have black &amp; brown. I'm still looking so I will definitely let you know if find anything (although I suspect I am a couple of shades darker than you). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-microfishnet-qs#post-95927 Tue, 22 Sep 2009 23:40:27 +0000 chewyspaghetti 95927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya- have you tried looking at dance stores? They always have fishnets, and the quality should be decent. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-microfishnet-qs#post-95916 Tue, 22 Sep 2009 21:02:49 +0000 April 95916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya -- how off the nude shade looks might depend on just how "micro" the hose are. A wider micro (such as the Oroblu) will have a fair amount of your own skin peeping through, while a tinier micro will look more like tights with a subtle pattern. I guess I'm not sure which one is a better option for the issues you're describing, just thought I would point that out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-microfishnet-qs#post-95914 Tue, 22 Sep 2009 20:43:22 +0000 Maya 95914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yesterday at Target I got the micro fishnet knee highs Bella informed me about that have black, brown, and nude in one package for $5. I love the black and even the brown (I never like brown), but I'm not crazy about the nude. Being a non-pale, non-white woman, it's not really "nude" for me. It's too light and makes my legs look sort of sickly. I wanted to get a pair of full length nude micro fishnets, but now I'm not sure where I'm going to get them in the right color. I have always found it particularly hard to get any kind of nude colored hose to work for me. "Tan" colors tend to be way too dark on me while lighter colors wash me out. Has anyone seen a pair that come in a suitable color for me? This might end up being harder than I thought. </p>
