Stylist Advice- Should I Wear Nylons to a Formal Business Dinner?

Hi y'all. I'm recuperating with a fractured ankle so Naveed is doing this week's Stylist Advice question... -S.H Dear Sharon:It's been awhile since I've had to wear a dress to an evening event during winter in the Northwest. I'm so torn on the proper thing to do when it comes to nylons. It's a business banquet with Sr. executives from my husband's company - I really want to be polished as I'm representing him in front of his people. What would you recommend? I'm thinking I should wear nylons (nude) but I never see anyone with them on!  (A. via Fashion Advice) >>MORE: When to use Nylons to even your skintone?  While we think nylons that are anything besides black are unnecessary, it depends on what you

Slingback pumps and pantyhose… Is hosiery a dated don’t or fashion do?

Slingback pumps and pantyhose- fashion don't or style do? Is it okay to wear slingback shoes when wearing stockings? (via gMail)   Tinted sheer pantyhose from subtle tints to rich jet, light textures, or patterned tights is very much on the radar. As spring styles lean towards fuller 1950's skirts, drapey Grecian silhouettes, and a broader shoulder, the leg tends to call for more substance than a bare leg and modern pantyhose is in order.

Are bare legs ok in a professional environment? Avoiding a pantyhose faux pas

Are bare legs ok in a professional environment? Avoiding a pantyhose faux pas I just started a position, outside my home, for the first time in many years. I am working around men - very well dressed commercial real estate brokers. My location is in Carlsbad, CA, which is a somewhat upscale beach city. I was told by a female secretary in their La Jolla office that nylons are so out. Bare legs are in style even in a professional environment. True or untrue? Does one consider the season, the climate, or the location when determining what professional dress is? (Carlsbad, CA) Sorry, to tell you, but you are showing your age! Fashionably speaking, nude nylons have been out of

Pantyhose and Sandals, Oh My

Pantyhose and Sandals, Oh My Urgent, I need to know if you can wear open toed shoes with nylons for a nice evening out in the city. -Nutty Over Nylons (San Francisco, CA) If I had a coin for every time someone asked me some version of the same "pantyhose with sandals" conundrum I would have enough money for a lifetime supply of different Manolo's for every day of the week! Sheer nude hose worn with very open toe shoes or sandals looks weird. A small peek-a-boo open toe shoe looks fine when worn with hosiery. Bare feet and a perfect pedicure are best with sandals. Tip: if you need the support of pantyhose and you're wearing pants, hack the
