Sunday Style Solution - "Why go bare when you can wear nude fishnets?"

Fishnets are no longer just for the goth girl, the exotic dancer, and the Halloween costume.Whether your look is classic, ultra-girlie, punk chic, or low-key, nude (skin tone) textured hosiery has a place in your wardrobe. They work all year round and are at the same time a little playful, very chic, and a lot sexy!

* Wear standard nude fishnets with a skirt suit or classic trench for a quick nod to high fashion and the fact that you may not be as conservative as you first appear (while at the same time maintaining work appropriate dress: from far away your leg will read nude...it isn't until you're close up and paying attention that the texture really pops.) 

* Girlie girls, kick up the femme-factor by pairing a flirty, flouncy, printed skirt with a large weave nude fishnet (often referred to as diamond net, fence net, or large net) and a provocative peep toe pump...va va va voom! (standard fishnet pictured - and remember, no matter large or small the net, if you're showing the little piggies make sure you have a fresh pedicure!)


* To create an edgy, urban look, how about a pencil skirt, nude fishnets (maybe even with a back seam!), and ankle booties with your choice of top? Something shredded out will satiate your inner punk princess, while a cozy, long sleeve tunic sweater will add a pop of polish.

* For the more timid trendster, start with a knee-length walking short, standard nude fishnets and a cute ballet flat with a drapey tank or tee. Perfect for weekend brunch, afternoon shopping, or casual first date! (This is my spring style suggestion. For fall, wear nude fishnets - or a nude textured tight if it's chilly outside - instead of your standard opaque tight with boots and a skirt!)

The most important part is to OWN IT. Wear the look with confidence and you'll feel stylish and saucy, and the compliments will roll on in!
