Today I had to go to a meeting. I could have worn pants, but I decided to wear a skirt. Which always carries with it the question of hose. Which I grew up wearing.
But at some point in the ’90’s nobody wore hose anymore. So I never know.
I googled it. Turns out no bare legs this year–but it’s not so much hose as tights–any color, texture, or design. Or knee-highs or thigh-highs, if you’re so inclined.
As much as I want to be comfortable in my clothes, there’s still that little part of me that wants to look like she knows what’s going on.

why this daily practice
Thank you for information! As long as we don’t have to wear a slip as well!!
Ha ha, Chris!
I might be in pant suits until bare legs are back in…I can do the occasional tights, but it really evokes childhood memories when I wore them almost daily and my mother held the waistband while I jumped up and down to get my toes to the bottom!
DL, what a great visual–you as a little girl jumping up and down to get into your tights : ) I don’t mind tights or leggings, but I hate hose!
Thanks soooo much! I would have done the bare legs and been terribly out of style!
Linda, I’m sure I am constantly out of style. The hose thing just feels so black and white, almost as if there’s a right and wrong answer, which is of course ridiculous!
