sheer diamond patterned hose.. where can I find them?

Queen Mum

I've seen a few of you who have really pretty sheer black diamond patterned hose and I want to copy
I was wondering if anyone can save me mall cruising time by directing me to the right store?
and I'd rather not drive out to Nordstrom this week.

I have a few pairs, purchased at Nordies. Perhaps others have found them elsewhere...I'll be curious!

I have some from Marks and Spencer, but I think you're in the US, so that probably won't help. Sorry I don't have any other ideas.

I picked up a pair of Spanx with a light diamond texture (they are less opaque than tights, but not as sheer as nylons) at Nordstrom Rack and am LOVING them! Still not cheap ($17, I believe) but they have proved extremely durable and I love that they have a pattern but are subtle and conservative enough for office wear.
Maybe call your local Nordstrom Rack to see if they carry Spanx?

Angie has recommended tights from Express. They have two diamond-ish styles. I have one:

They are nice tights, but the pattern is a little more subtle than I figured. Perfect if your outfit has some pattern or busyness. I'm still on the lookout for bolder ones - for when the outfit is plain. . .

Oh, yes - they are pricy, so with any of their hosiery, I do the buy-one-get-one-half-off then use a printable coupon (there is one right now) for $15 off $30. It makes them about $7-8 per pair.

Just got back from the mall and I picked up the spanx pair from Rack. I did pop in express but they didn't have the diamond pattern and I wasn't in the mood for 2 pair (although I ended up spending $17 for the one pair at the Rack.. so I'm glad to hear that they are durable!)

thanks all for the input!

Auburn/Kim, are these the Spanx tights? http://www.shopbop.com/diamond.....SPANX20014

no Vani.. those aren't the ones I found. That was what I had in mind, but couldn't find any like that. If you look at my sweaterdress thread you'll see the ones I found.

No, mine are a more subtle and smaller diamond pattern.
QM--so glad you found them. Am wearing mine today, in fact, and LOVING them. Also, unlike some Spanx wear, these have a nice, but non-constricting control top. But what I really love is their fit and durability. As I sit at my desk I have some metal protruding from my desk that is essentially a nylons/tights death trap and so far so good!
