I was really self-conscious in these. Super bold stripes is a bit much, even for me, but I adore them and wanted to make them work. Again, I got a tonne of compliments so that helps ease the “What am I doing I look like a moron” of it all.

I do have a complaint about the WLC stockings. I’m a girl of ample thigh, and these just don’t have the stretch required to make that comfortable. I prefer my stocking with a sticky innard so that they don’t slip, but these seem to rely on strangulation alone. They are *considerably* better than the set I got a few years back (the Splash Metallic Thigh Highs), which didn’t even try to stay up. These will bunch and drop, but stayed over my knee all day.
