Shorts with tights

With a great surprise I discovered that shorts with pantyhose (tights, stockings, leggings, whatever) combination is thought by some (many?) people as strictly prohibited by the fashion canons. Does fashion have canons, actually? I doubt it. Probably caNNons, but not caNons πŸ™‚ It wouldn’t be fashion if it was so conservative (“You can’t do this!, because … errrm…. Because nobody does this!) and lacked innovations.

There is no difference between shorts and skirts of the same length and made out of the same material. (I think shorts are more convenient). But there are people who fight for the right to wear shorts with pantyhose. And no, I don’t mean men (NB: Though it also looks ridiculous – nobody prevents men wearing shorts with pantyhose except themselves, but that’s another story).

Two examples (back to women): Continue reading “Shorts with tights”

Fetish music videos. Part I.
Robert Palmer, Terence Donovan and “Addicted to Love”

Remember? 1985! Gorgeous identical girls, black stockings, mini-dresses, high heels, red lips, faces with no expressions! Shocking, mind and penis blowing experience…

The video was directed by a great photographer Terence Donovan (1936-1996). Here’s a couple of his photos:

Pantyhose in ad-campaigns

Taken in Moscow. One of my favourite street ads. The pantyhose look like Philippe Matignon Cristal 30.

Gefotografeerd in Moskou. Een van mijn favoriete straatreclames. Het lijkt me dat de panty Philippe Matignon Cristal 30 is.

Taken at Schiphol airport (Amsterdam, The Netherlands). To be honest, I would prefer seams πŸ˜‰

High heels, nylons, madness …

Just a couple of hours after I had written about high heels in Moscow I found this article in Natural Blonde’s blog. The interesting thing is how different the standards are. While 2″ heels are considered high and 3″ are called madness at one place, 4″ stilettos/spikes are normal for everyday life at another.

Thanks for the photos to highheels.web-log.nl and www.naaldhakken.info.

Is (s)he wearing pantyhose?

pm_ht-s108Even if you’re not into pantyhose, tight, stockings, nylon, lycra or whatever is related to the thin clingy filmy material people usually put on their legs, I’m pretty sure you ask yourself from time to time “Is she (he) wearing pantyhose? Or it’s just bare skin?” Or “Her (his?) skin is so smooth and evenly tanned, probably (s)he is wearing pantyhose?” Etc.

I call this sport (yeah, sport, why not?) “pantyhose guessing”. Sometimes it takes lots of patience and “technical skills” to caught the familiar shine or texture of an almost invisible layer of tightly stretched nylon.

spec02bBut unlike the real life where you can always ask the person if (s)he is indeed wearing nylons (if you dare ;-), photos rarely respond. Is the girl on the first picture wearing pantyhose? What do you think? And on the second? Read further …

Moscow, high heels, greyish pantyhose

mini-skirt and stockingsEver been to Moscow? A completely different world of dressed-to-kill girls. Posh, expensive, thoroughly chosen clothes, make-up and accessories, “f* off” expression on their faces, high, very high, stiletto heels regardless the situation and place…

But rather strange pantyhose. Dull, greyish, “cold” coloured, “dead skin” looking. I don’t understand why. Even in the shops (Wolford is the only exception) I could not find any transparent tights with normal “warm” colours. Just coffee-brown, dark suntan colour with a slight lilac shade and that light “greyish” one called “natural”. Yes, you can buy black, blue, red, etc, but I mean close-to-skin colours. I checked Oroblu, Filodoro, Glamour, Levante, Philippe Matignon with exactly the same result.
