Panty-hose: how to use and how not to use it

Lots of friends of mine and also readers used to ask me how to use panty-hoses in harmonic ways. Because there are lots of doubts related to colors – not only of the panties, but also of the shoes matching, for example. To help you, then, I’ve made kind of a handbook about this subject. Take a look!

This is, obviously, a versatile and easy matching of the winter’s closet: when in doubt, do it! Doesn’t matter how thin is the fabric of your panty, this is a neutral option for you to match any kind of look, any print or color and also makes you look skinnier and taller.

There is a bigger doubt here: what should I do when the shoes and the panties are in different colors? Well, giving an example of brown shoes, I suggest you to wear the black panty hose in a thinner texture. After all, black is always black anyway and even if your shoes are in another color, it doesn’t make your outfit “polluted” visually, when matched with black panty-hoses. 

To avoid this pollution, however, it’s nice if you try neutral colors in the pieces of your clothes. Or, in cases of colorful shoes, try a “total black” outfit, with the panty-hose also black. You can also try nude panty-hoses, in the tone of your skin, to match colorful shoes.

Using colorful panty-hoses – that are not black or nude – is an audacious attitude that demands a little bit of care when you’re matching pieces. Wool panties are easier for you to match with shoes in similar colors, in order not to ‘cut’ your silhouette visually, but those panties also make a match with black shoes.

Burgundy panty hoses, a color that is currently trendy, specially on winter, is also a great option and can be matched with black shoes. In order not to pollute your outfit visually, try neutral pieces of clothes, in terms of colors, or the black outfit, from top to toes. Also, try surtons, that are another such good idea of outfit.
