If you think about it,
opaque hold ups, which are sometimes also known as thigh high stockings, are a pretty unique garment as they successfully manage to straddle two worlds. What are these two worlds? Well, the world of practical hosiery and the world of exotic lingerie to be precise. Does this statement amaze you? If yes, then you probably thought that hold-ups were just for the bedroom as they are super sexy. Well, this is true, but opaque hold-ups are actually appropriate for lots of occasions including parties, at work, on the weekend, or even on a hot date!
Key points to remember are that not only are opaque hold ups comfortable and fit well but they can also be sexy and playful at the same time. They are comfortable due to the fact that there is no uncomfortable waistband attached, as there is with tights, so you avoid the whole cutting into your waistline issue. This also means that hold ups don’t flatten your curves under dresses, skirts, and pants, but rather accentuate them in a flattering way. Top quality opaque hold ups, such as the styles we stock at Fashionlegs, also give your legs a flawless finish as well -which is something that many of us are striving to achieve. A hold up with a decorative band (also known as the welt) also give you the opportunity to reveal a little of your personality and be a little playful by choosing whether to conceal or reveal it.
Whether you are working hard in an office or dancing the night away with your friends, the hold ups we stock will stay up as long as you do, or longer. This is why we only stock high-quality brands that we believe in.
As we have said before hold ups, including black hold ups, are suitable for wearing on many occasions wherever and however you want. They give you a professional edge, while also being sexy and fun – it all depends on how you style them.
Hold Ups for Work
Hold ups are a great option for work as not only will they help your legs to look amazing, but they will also help to keep you feeling fabulous all day as well.
Take a look at the Asti 80 Denier Black Hold Ups for example. They are perfect for completing your work look. They feature a very minimal lace top band meaning that they will be unobtrusive under a tight fitting pencil skirt. The lace band also features double silicone to ensure they will stay in place all day long. For a professional look, you could pair your
black hold ups with a pencil skirt, a nice jacket and a pair of heels and no one will be able to tell you to have a secret sexy side – unless you want them too!
The Asti 80 Denier Hold Ups are available in nine different colour styles, including black, baby pink, cobalt, graphite, red, royal blue and hot pink and also black with a contrasting red band.
We also stock the Bologna 80 Denier Hold Up Perfect Fit which is so called as they feature a ribbon on the silicone band which allows the wearer to adjust the fit of the band according to the width of their thigh. These are one of our favourite products as they allow us to offer you a made to measure service in the comfort of your own home! To complement the perfect fit theme, they are also available in 15 colour choices to suit every mood – including black/black ribbon, black/gold ribbon, and black/red ribbon.
Hold Ups for Evenings
Opaque hold ups are also a great way to reveal your sexy and sassy side when you are heading out for a night on the town, and are the perfect addition to any going out outfit.
You can add a touch of excitement to your evening with the Black Asti 80 Denier Microfibre Hold-Ups featuring a Red Band by pairing them with a mini skirt and flashing a little of the red top – if you dare.
You can also show off your glamorous side with the Bologna 80 Denier Hold Up featuring a wide variety of coloured ribbon at the band. Perfect for a night out with your special someone, you can show off your legs to perfection by choosing one of the contrasting colour ribbon pairs, such as black/red or black/cobalt for a real thrill.
As you can see, hold ups are one of those pieces of hosiery that look great with any outfit and so can be worn to pretty much any event.
Fishnet hold ups are perfect for a night with your sweetheart, for example, as they will make your legs look flawless and sexy, while our high quality black opaque hold ups will keep you looking professional at work.
