These may possibly be my favourite sheers...EVER!

If you follow me on Instagram, you may already have a slight idea as to what my favourite sheers are...Now I'm talking about the kind of sheers that you would reach for at EVERY given opportunity - these literally are my 'go-to' pair of sheers.  Whether that occasion is casual with ripped jeans, formal wear or even for work!

I bet you're all wondering what sheers are these!?  Well I can confirm that surprisingly these are not a staple pair like Wolford Neon's, but if you carry on reading after the jump, you might just be surprised...

Girardi Cristine Opaque Lace Top Hold Ups Review - UK Tights

Apologies for the lack of posting via my blog, Twitter and Instagram lately.  For some of you that don't know; I work full-time in a demanding role managing accounts worth over a few million pound, and from May - July we have an increase in spending to ensure all our money is spent etc.  So I do sincerely apologise for the lack of updates, but as you can imagine my job is my top priority. 

So with all that out of the way, let's get down to business on these Girardi hold ups from UK Tights!


Since as early as 1933, Girardi brand name has been synonym of both sophisticated ladies elegance and top quality products.  They produce all our items inside our works in Reggio Emilia where the attention to every tiny detail accompanies their passion for hosiery.  Special attention is given to the choice of precious yarns, that is made according to the strictest standards, so that we are able to give our special touch feeling and comfort - which of course what really matters.  Who wants to wear  a pair of scratchy cheaply knitted items!?

Wolford Rockn' Rose Tights Review - Black/Black






Well hello again!  I'm back to review one of my favourite brands, Wolford!  They're one of the world's leading hosiery brands founded in 1949.  Their designs are always innovative and high quality, maximum comfort (like silk against your skin) and most definitely timeless elegance.  This is many of the reasons why I have a vast collection of their hosiery and bodysuits.

Leg Avenue Tights Review - Opaque Tights with Net Top


Leg Avenue was founded in 1999 in California, USA and are now one of the world's largest manufacturers of intimate apparel.   They pride themselves on making the most innovative costumes, lingerie and hosiery. (and that they definitely do! )

I first discovered Leg Avenue in the summer of  2006;  it was then that I fell in love with a pair of socks that a Playmate (Playboy bunny) was wearing.  I then proceeded to do that obsessive internet search and that's how I discovered Leg Avenue! (random I know!)

#Updateyourlegs Wolford Grand Finale - in The Eternal City of Rome


I want to start by saying a massive thank you to everyone who supported me in Wolford's 'Update your legs' contest. 
I had an amazing time in the magical Eternal city of Rome and made some true friends.


I was greeted at the Grand Hotel Plaza in Rome by the other winner Maria and Marta from Wolford, who handed me this very warm welcoming letter.  This letter finally made me realise that 'wow I really have won the competition' because I still couldn't believe it, that I could actually win a competition ran by a company that inspires me!
