The Right Touch

Friday, June 5, 2009

Pictured here are the Satin Touch 20 Stay Ups from Wolford, one of the few new things I’ve gotten a chance to wear lately. While I continue to grow more and more enamored with tights, and have reached the point of wearing them almost exclusively rather than panties or stockings, I do have an interest in layering thigh highs, or stay ups, over tights. These were purchased mostly for that purpose.

If you’re not a stay up person, I suggest you buy these and give them a try. They may just change your mind. They are 20 denier, which is a bit more to the opaque side than most of Wolford’s tights or stockings. In addition, they have the prettiest stay up band which is done in a beautiful floral lace pattern complete with the Wolford name, and is quite a bit thicker than the average band. Their best feature is the brilliant shine these give off. I’ve purchased shiny tights and stockings before, but these have to be the most radiant leg wear I own. Layered over a pair of sheer tights that are bit shimmery themselves, these are positively eye-popping. The picture here may not do it enough justice, you’ll just have to take my word for it.

The stay ups are 89% nylon and 11% elastane. They cost £20.00 (about $32USD). They’re available in a generous assortment of 10 different colors sizes XS-L. They have a flat toe seam and a slightly reinforced toe which is invisible enough that you could probably get away with wearing them with open toed shoes.
