Sandals and stockings for dressy dresses?
I have a semi-formal wedding and an elegant evenng out at the ballet coming up. For both, I have found really nice dresses that are short (knee length or just below). I want to wear strappy high-heeled sandals with both, and I feel uncomfortable going without stockings. Is it OK to wear nylons (not sure if I will wear pantyhose or stockings and a garter belt) with dressy heeled sandals like this? I really don't want to wear closed-toe pumps either. Some of my friends say I shouldn't wear nylons w/sandals, other say go for it. What do you think?
Yes , you should (must) wear hose with your sandals to a formal occasion. Wear ultra sheer hosiery in a 5 denier, nude, naturally with a sheer toe. Try giraldi summer light vb hose. Very sexy and utterly sheer, your legs will look elegant and sophisticated!
Thank you all for your input. I will wear nylons and sandals with confidence alot more. The ballet was this past Sat night, and I wore my dress, ultra sheer pantyhose and strappy sandals. I felt comfortable and many women of all ages had on stockings with sandals so gues this is the trend now.
