[...] 8. Extra nude pantyhose. If you don’t already keep a pair at the office for your suit, you may want to keep a pair for general usage. Buy it at the drugstore and shove it in the back of your drawer — at worst it’s $3 you’ve spent for no reason — but it can be a lifesaver in a pinch. Our commenters had a ton of suggestions for favorite pantyhose (both drugstore and high end) when we ran a poll on whether nude or black pantyhose was appropriate; check those out here. [...]

On pale legs as mine, nude is a wonderful color. Suntan is a bit too dark.

I usually get mine at Target: Hanes. they are very sturdy. And yes, buy a size up, that makes them so much more comfortable!

You know ladies, you dont have to brush your teeth, or shave your legs or arm pits either. Short answer, if I pick up my date and shes dressed to the ‘Nines’ nylons and heels, be assured of the best resturants and after dinner entertainment, jeans, bare legs, that sort, means sports bar, for burgers, try for second, then third base, if that fails, Im still home by 11pm to watch Sports Center in ESPN, no loss.
The choice is yours.

If you’re going for the best, definitely check out Givenchy and Wolford Fatales. Amen to the one size up rule for comfort! I can’t tell you how many heads turn / positive responses I get in those hose! A bit pricier though :)

I would disagree, as it depends on your skin color. For darker skinned women, there is no true “nude”. I wear a toffee color or off black.

I am manager at a bank and wear nude or buff hose year round. I have had good luck with Hanes sheer elegance and DNKY.

I like to wear Hue thigh highs, black, off-black, nude. You can get two pair for $12, but the thigh-highs are getting harder to find. I usually get them at Nordstrom or Macy’s.

I dislike the band around my waist which is why I go the thigh-high route. Also, I buy them one size up (I usually wear a small but buy tights/hose in size medium) so they are comfortable and sit nicely on my thighs without pinching my flesh. I think this makes them a “hardier” wear because the fabric isn’t stretched too taught, although it can depend on the pattern I suppose.

Another advantage to thigh-highs is that when you get a run in one leg you don’t have to toss the whole pair!

With a black suit a darker shade such as suntan or even coffee colored hose would look sharp in contrast.

For Tall ladies, I’d like to suggest DKNY or Calvin Klein Tall, as well as talls from onehanesplace.com. Also, cult find, but Evan Picone hose are fantastic and will not run.

The DKNY vary in quality. I dislike their super-ultrasheer, as these run too easily, but the 15 denier are great.

After returning to the West coast, I haven’t worn hose…well, since I got back. Love the Cali informality!

I like Ann Taylor panty hose – good colors, sheer and comfortable.
