Used Hosiery: Bottle Cooler

Instead of throwing away kneehighs or any other hosiery [even socks! :^/], save them for faster cooling on hot days.

Soak them in water, then put the drink inside the hosiery leg/foot. Place the whole thing inside the freezer for about 15 minutes. The water helps it to cool faster, and the hosiery helps the water to stay at the side of the drink.

Go East Art: Get To Know Smadar

Yay! We can begin the first part of the interview!

Many of you, who have Twitter accounts, probably have heard of Go East Art. Smadar [a.k.a. Sam] is the owner of the business and the designer of the hosiery, and she has graciously shared with us her enthusiasm, inspiration, and tastes to get the first part of the interview started. We also discussed Halloween costumes. I will try to save the best material for later, so that means her answers might seem to be out of order.

Before I read her responses, I intended to edit her spelling and grammar, but after reading, I decided against that, because I found that I could really feel her emotion, while I read her text. Also, seeing her casual writing style helps us to imagine how she presents herself, when she is casual. Normally, I would edit, but I believe that you might agree with me for this interview.

Here is some social media contact information.

For those of us who did not get to enjoy participating in Stockings Day, we can take a look at what Charnos did in London traffic. There is video at the bottom of the article, showing a dance routine, in what appears to be a shopping mall.

Trying Out Waistband-Free Sheers

I must say that it is nice to be wearing sheers again. I will not wear this too much, as I appreciate the feel of thicker hosiery, but it is delightful to go back to sheers every now and then. In a way, I feel that wearing sheers is where our roots are, and wearing opaques is almost too normal for trend setting.

package

A pair of sheers from my stock is damaged so badly, that I need to get compensation from the manufacturer. I decided to wear this damaged pair as a sample.

I like the feel of having a low rise pair of hosiery. I do not think that this was intended to be low rise, but because it does not have to be pulled all the way up, it can be worn as a low rise pair.

The hosiery has a dry hard feel to it, in that it does not feel like skin or satin. It does feel very smooth.

I have a 30″ inseam, and am wearing size B. There is a lot leg length, and it could stretch more without problems, but I would rather have a size C or maybe D, because I prefer to keep the fabric as unstretched as possible. Unstretched fabric is unstressed fabric, and it will last longer, and feel softer.

Thanksgiving And Hosiery And Shorts Went Well

I had mixed feelings about which pair of hosiery to wear. I wanted to wear sheers or partially opaque hosiery, but I am not used to wearing them without slippers or shoes. At home, I always wear closed toe slippers, so it seemed kind of weird to wear sheers with my pantyhosed feet exposed. 1 thing that I do not like about wearing hosiery on carpet is that the carpet can ruin the hosiery.

I decided to go with my regular footless opaques and a pair of socks, for this family gathering. I will try to wear sheers at Christmas.

I am pleased to say that it worked out very well. Nobody said anything bad. People talked about hosiery that they wore. I never got the impression that they brought up the topic because of me, so I do not know what to make of it. It is interesting to know that my relatives do wear hosiery, but they do not wear it often. It is too bad. I wish that more of them would.

What did you wear to Thanksgiving? Thank you for reading!

Movie: Whip It

There is lots of nylon and spandex. It is a coming of age story, and it seemed to be well made. I find that most movies that Drew Barrymore helps to produce seem to be worth our time and money.

This Friday, if you would like to watch a movie on Netflix, then perhaps you could try, Whip It. I give it 3/5 stars.

Plan To Wear Hosiery And Shorts To Thanksgiving

Tonight, we will have our family gathering. I was planning on wearing black sheers. They already know that I wear, and many have seen me wear. The thing is that I would feel so naked in front of them. I might end up wearing opaque footless hosiery with socks. I will let you know what happens.

Hosiery Adovcate's Shop Is Open!

I am starting to outgrow Hosiery Advocate's Boutique. So it is time to open Hosiery Advocate's Shop! The latter allows for more products to be sold in the same place, and it also allows for small customizations on the product pages that the boutique does not allow for. This is because of the service offered by each site, which is beyond my control, unless I pay extra.

Customers will find the same service, prices, and shipping rates. I will be drawing from the same stock, when fulfilling orders, so customers should feel comfortable shopping there.

I want to keep using Hosiery Advocate's Boutique to feature special products.
