Leg Makeup

[Sally Stone]

One of things about summertime is that the higher temperatures can make wearing hosiery uncomfortable.  So, during the hottest months I go barelegged.  I am always conflicted, however, when I decide to go without stockings because they do such an amazing job of enhancing the look of my legs. Quite simply, they are leg makeup. Just a like a good foundation for the face, stockings, or pantyhose, do a great job of minimizing leg flaws.  Growing up male and doing lots of male activities, I have lots of flaws to cover.  So, for me, a good pair of sheer hose is kind of a necessity and they have always made my legs look prettier.  They are also great for adding a little color.

 

Well, the weather here in the high desert has finally broken and now it is cool enough to revert back to wearing pantyhose, which makes me very happy.  So tomorrow, while doing errands, I'll once again be wearing pantyhose under my skirt.  I have enjoyed the warmth of summer, but I now am ready to embrace the cooler temperatures of fall and winter.  My fondest fashions have always been fall fashions and with them comes the perfect time to add legwear back into my ensembles.  Yippee!

What a great analogy Sally, 

 

Leg Makeup = Stockings or Pantyhose

 

I also prefer Fall Fashions and the cooler weather even into Winter. Summer is my least favorite season. 
 

Hope you have a wonderful weekend,

@Sally StoneI think stockings are cool.   Smooth look!  Sexy.

 

I don’t wear them enough (almost never…working on it….  

When I read the title of this thread, I thought about that I sometimes dab a little makeup to cover razor scrapes or other blemishes on my legs.

i had a small plague of red insect bites on my thighs this summer.  
They were yucky.  
So I carried a  maybelline age erasure sponge thingy for touchups throughout the workday.

It's still a little warm here - except in the early morning.  

 

I've developed a taste for thigh-high hose and socks.  I prefer lower hemlines so that's not an issue.  I've even got some of those striped wicked witch ones I've been waiting for the cool weather to bust out.

 

I like how they feel.  IDK.  Maybe I'm just a little kinky.

I also have some garters with pentangles.  But I'd be the only one to know they were there, so… not really makeup.  More like Leg accessories, I guess.

The Sally Hansen leg makeup spray is rather good if you are self conscious of your legs.

Bridget, I have used that product several times and I really like the way it makes my legs look tanned, but it doesn't diffuse the light and blur flaws the way stockings do.  Still, the leg spray is a good product for the summer months.

And of course the stockings feel nice.
