I was raised that you should never go without stockings, especially at work but mine tore bad and I took em off. Legs are bare but shaved thank God lol so I think I can get away with it with my knee-leght dress but is that tacky at work? Should I run out and get a pair at the Duane Read around the corner?

It depends on my mood. I'm wearing them right now, but I wore a dress a few days ago & went without stockings.

Re: Do you wear...
I wear stockings every day - we aren't allowed to wear skirts without stockings. (no bare legs allowed in our dress code)
BUT - that being said, i am sure you are fine, especially if the dress is knee length - no one will even notice!

Thanks girls. I think Im fine. I sit on my @ss most of the day anyway so no one sees my legs and the outfit is reserved as usual so I should be fine.
Peggy I atcually have a pair of those white little girl stockings Don't know why I bought them-nostalgia maybe but they look AWFUL on a grown woman. Really sald like a demented Alice.
OMG please burn them!!!! I cant even-if I ever see a grown woman in those things I will personally rip them so she cant ever wear them again

I hate stockings!! Only wear them if I absolutely have to- like if I have a wedding in January or something to go to and don't want to freeze on my way in I'll wear them... but thats about it- only if I HAVE to!

Re: Do you wear...
I, like you was raised to wear them with all of my suites and dresses, you should be okay though.

I don't, unless I'm wearing a short skirt and it's cold out, tho I usually just wear pants. I think a knee-length skirt on a day like today it's fine to go bare. However, I don't know the dress code where you work; at my company it's fine.

Jenn,
I never realized how many women HATE stockings until I came on LIW, LOL. I was in my own little stockings realm because for 12 years....count 'em.....12 YEARS ......I had to wear either tights or stockings with my Catholic School uniform. I grew up as a kid with it as second nature!! It wasnt until I got into college that I realized, wow...a lot of people our age cant stand wearing them!

Re: Do you wear...
I barely ever wear a skirt to work- usually just long pants. I only wear one skirt i have and its a pencil skirt that falls below the knees. If its winter I'll wear stockings, summer nope.
Im one fo the girls that tends to hate them!

Re: Do you wear...
I don't think you need to unless your job is very strict about their dress code. I only wear them every now and then. However I refuse to wear them with shorts! I think those women are crazy. Whats the point of shorts if you have to still cover you leg?

Re: Do you wear...
I usually only wear stockings on interviews and on very cold days over the winter. I have a few patterned pairs reserved for those days - from some reason the patterned ones last forever and do not make me feel as though I am being stuffed into them.
