Used Hosiery: Belt

I like the idea of using old hosiery as a belt, which came from, 500 Things to Do with Pantyhose... Besides Wear Them! Ingenious and Useful Ways to Give Old Pantyhose New Life. Read the remainder of the blog entry to see my suggestions on how to improve the idea.

Be sure to check out the other used hosiery ideas, by clicking used, which can also be found in the right column, under Popular Topics.

Used Hosiery Ideas From A Book

I have run out of ideas, so I will turn to this book that I bought a while ago: 500 Things to Do with Pantyhose... Besides Wear Them! Ingenious and Useful Ways to Give Old Pantyhose New Life.

I do not really like all of the ideas, because she does not quite understand the needs of the relevant task. For example, she encourages people to use hosiery to catch fish when cleaning tanks. I do not think that you need to do that. In fact, if you need to catch fish with each cleaning, then you must be doing something wrong. It is supposed to be a very simple and light task. Also, the regular nets tend to just work better.

There are some ideas that are worth sharing, and I look forward to sharing them with you. Some of the ideas will add to what I have already shared. However, I will not cover all of the good ideas, because I do not want to discourage people from buying or borrowing the book. I encourage you to check your local libraries.

I will try to not share idea #485, which I consider to be the newest idea, because I want to save it for those who read the book.

Leg Luxury

I invited Leg Luxury to be interviewed, but they declined. I admit that I was quite offended and put off by this, but I think that we need to respect the wishes of people, if they want their privacy. In this case, however, they sent a blurb to tell us about themselves. Read the remainder of the blog entry for the blurb and a special discount. I did not even ask for it.

Please bear in mind that I decided to not edit this, except for adding the links. She gave her email address, but I removed it and gave a link to the contact page.

Hosiery Popularity Spring 2011: Women Wearing Hosiery On Oprah

Last week, I passed by the TV when Oprah was on. I saw several of the women wearing black hosiery with what appeared to be spring outfits. I think that this is a good sign that hosiery will be popular for spring 2011. I was getting concerned, because most ads and articles encourage us to cast off hosiery and tuck it away in a drawer. The women on the show seemed to be what I would consider fashionably conservative-mainstream. If I am correct, then many women would be willing to wear hosiery during the spring. Do you agree?

Second Interview Update And A Third Interview Announcement

I am pleased to announce that I have found a third business to interview. 1 of the owners has already agreed to it. Hopefully, she will reply soon, so that I could post something next week.

Unfortunately, the second interview will have to be postponed. The owner is very busy, it seems. I think that the third interview will become the second interview, and the current second interview will become the third interview.

Be sure to check out the other interview questions, by clicking interviews, which can also be found in the right column, under Popular Topics.

An Interview Will Be Coming Soon

I have another interview in the works. I was hoping to get it out to you today, but the interviewee has not sent me the responses yet.

To give you something to think about, I want to give you 2 clues. The interviewee comes from Canada, and many of my readers might know this person by name.

Hosiery Common During Fashion Week

We can breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that hosiery was prominent during fashion week, as these photos show. It means a bit to me, because I have been seeing less and less hosiery, lately.

I skimmed through some headlines and tiny quotes, and I think that hosiery was on the runways of many local fashion week events.

Why Leggings Are Worn As Pants

They have been told to wear a skirt, or a long shirt, or a pair of shorts, over their leggings. So, why do women avoid that? Read the remainder of this blog entry for the differences between leggings, footless hosiery, and a bit of leggings history.

Old People In Tights Recognized As Heroic

We have more evidence that tights are associated with goodness. Often times, such recognition is focused on younger people, but this time, it is about the elderly. Do not let anybody tell you that men in hosiery are always effeminate. Sometimes it is. Sometimes it is not.

I wonder what sales results we would get, if we made all male hosiery models pose in a heroic manner, with a beautiful hosiery clad woman beside him.

No Jockey Brand Store In Vancouver

Somebody did a web search for jockey pantyhose store vancouveer. I can only assume that the user is searching for a brand store. Unless they have a small boutique that I do not know about, I can assure you that Jockey hosiery is sold mostly department stores, grocery stores, and small shops, in the Metro Vancouver Regional District. I have never seen a specific Jockey store in my entire life.
