Additionally I only wear stockings with reinforced heel and toe, I personally think it adds a vintage glamour flare. though I get interesting looks from other women all the time. I often have women ask me where I get my stockings (e-bay) and proceed to tell me thier husband loves classic nylons. I'm single and I have men approach me often and strike up a conversation and my stockings with open shoes always seem to come up. I love the attention!!! jj Well, although some may feel that it is tacky, I wear stockings with open high heel sandals all the time.

Perhaps evening shoes might look all right. I do agree that dark-skinned Latina girls can get away with bare legs far more easily than fair-skinned types. My brunette sister (we are all half-Hispanic) hardly ever wears stockings, even with pumps, and I am so envious.

But that's just me -- I like to dress for what men like rather than dressing for other women. I live in Miami, which is probably the most stocking-less city in the U.S. But we don't all have toes and feet like these young Argentinian and Brazilian girls!

It's good to know that people can still get so excited on such a topic. Ushie, I hope you are feeling well. Also, look for shoes with "cush" - a softer sole, padding inside. My friend with fibromyalgia makes a point to try all shoes on carpet at home to be sure they are comfortable. Otherwise, they go back! And yes, she does look "superfantastic". A happy new year to all! Thank you all, and thank you to Charlotte for remembering the Manolo’s article on this topic. It’s good to know that people can still get so excited on such a topic.

Still, I've got to agree with CBOT (and disagree with Manolo) that even the sheerest stockings don't look very good with open-toed shoes (exception: peep-toes, which are essentially closed-toed shoes with a little opening). Somehow the stocking showing all the toes make you look as though you're trying to hide a deformity on your legs or feet. But I also find ridiculous the current fashion--inspired, I suspect, by Oscar-contender actresses in sunny Southern California--for going bare-legged in the evening when it's 32 degrees outside. And I'm not only of a certain age but very fair-skinned. So I just save open-toed shoes and bare legs for warm weather. Thanks for the link, DMCollins.

If I can't or don't want to go without stockings, then I simply wear a closed toe shoe. There are (unfortunately) many fashion items that do not look good on me -- micro mini skirts come to mind. That does not mean that I put on pants under my mini skirt. I simply wear something a little longer. I hate to disagree with the Manolo, but stockings with open-toe shoes is the height of tacky.
