Before going to the office I had a couple of free hours and I went to the nearest lake to take a walk. The weather forecast promised +32, I often wear pantyhose with breeches or shorts when I go to the forest, so I put on Falke Shelina 12 (invisible 100% nylon sheer to waist pantyhose with occasional tiny sparks, bought in Galeria Kaufhof).
I was wandering around the lake while taking photos of everything without any particular plan or idea, when at exactly this place I made a short step behind and …. tripped over a big stone with sharp edges …
Fortunately, nothing serious happened. I was still alive with just a couple of light bruises, the photocamera did not touch anything except my chest, but the pantyhose did not survive.
This is what the damage looked like:
Though even the holes were almost invisible, I could not go to the office wearing torn pantyhose. But I had a solution! I washed my nylon clad leg in the nearest spring and with a great pleasure continued my walk.
The solution was in the car. I expected that something like that can always happen and took some spare pantyhose with me. I ruled out all shiny nylons (mmm… It’s an office after all …) and picked up Oroblu Club 7 – also invisible matte pantyhose.
Have you ever tried to change pantyhose in a car? That was difficult 😉
Just an FYI. Falke Shelina 12 can also be found in another envelope:
What do you think about cheap (< €3) pantyhose from supermarkets and chains like Albert Heijn, Lidl, Kruidvat, Hema, Auchan, Aldi, etc? Having played with Wolford, Oroblu, Omero, La Perla, Maxmara, Falke and so on, my opinion was quite strong –
crap. But since I was advised by Searcher to use Albert Heijn pantyhose for the DIY bodystockings I decided to sacrifice €2.39 and bought AH Matglanzend 15 den suntan (colour “Sherry”) pantyhose. I chose one size bigger, since they were supposed to be pulled up as high as possible.
