'Lineage'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Every department store within easy reach is pretty much carrying only capri leggings. No actual tights.
I don't wear hose, I wear tights. I certainly do not wear capri leggings. I didn't in the 80s, I won't know.
Raq feels my pain. What has happened to retail lately. I may not be much of a shopper, but I'm pretty sure I've bought tights in the last couple of years...now I can't find the kind I like anywhere.
I've never worn hose...just black tights. I want good ones now!
Nope, here too.
There's no reason it can't be a product of your region too.
Last time I went stockings and frilly sock shopping here in LA, there was plenty of hose and plenty pairs of tights. Such is the way.
Raq - MAC requires $50 toward product to do your face. Sephora and Bare Escentuals will do with the hopes of winning you over to spend ooooodles, but nothing is required. YMakeupCounterMV.

It's happening here, too. Footless tights and capri leggings as far as the eye can see. I do not understand the point of fishnet capri leggings. Thank goodness for www.sock-dreams.com, that's all I'm sayin'.
I'm wearing a skirt for the first time in a year ... and remembering why I hate pantyhose. bleah.
Love sock-dreams!
HATE the word "hose" in the "pantyhose" context....don't mind it in the "firehose" context.
Or how about stockings, with a nice garter belt?
What has happened to retail lately.
For a couple of years I could not find skirts anywhere, it was just god-damned capris. I was so thrilled to see skirts coming back in fashion.

They do? Huh, the fabulous kids at my local MAC counters and store never mentioned that to me. Of course, they're probably well-aware that I can be talked into spending that much pretty easily.

Now *that's* a bitch to shop for around here. For your other hosiery needs, feel free to come over to West LA.
I've never had a problem as big as an entire sort of (what I consider a) clothing staple disappear due to trends--it's a styling issue. Most impact right now is where the waistband on pants hit. I am perfectly willing to wear some lower rise pants, but my shirts have to not only be longer, they have to be shaped. Therein lay my problem. Right now any pants that need to fit precisely below my waist fit like crap most everywhere else, so I'm trying to avoid the lower waist styles in general.
