All Laced Up

A few weeks back, the theme of the 'One of Three' post was stay ups. Of the three options, the winner was the Fern Lace Stay-Up Thigh Highs. While I'm typically much more of a tights person, there's no denying the sexiness of stay ups. When done right, the sheer or fishnet look, coupled with a lacy top, pair with the perfect panties is the pinnacle of sexy. When you start with these stay-ups, you're already well on you way to sexy.

Start with the texture. These are done in a open knit look that is done in a fan pattern. The pattern alternates in an up and down fashion as they circle the leg. These are then topped off by a wide band that include two different types of lace patterns, as well as two different colors (black and gray). Compared to the common fishnet stay ups, these are showstoppers.

These stay-ups have a very generous stretch to them, and the net pattern keeps well no matter what shape the legs need to conform too. The stay up band initially seemed like it was going to be too tight, with the silicone too uncomfortable, but in a matter of minutes, I forgot that I was even wearing stay-ups. Turns out the band couldn't be more comfortable. The two-patterned lace top looks great, and the lacey patterned legs continue down to just the smallest of reinforced toes. You will love these sexy stay-ups.

The stay-ups are a blend of 95% nylon and 5% spandex. They are 20 inches from the toe to the bottom of the stay-up band. They're available in both black and flannel. They're made in Italy. They cost $20.
