Plain Suspender Stockings

What to wear with suspender stockings?

Though suspender stockings are most often associated with lingerie, they are beginning to be worn more and more as everyday wear. People often forget that stockings actually began as the only suitable legwear to leave the house. Long before tights existed, it was inappropriate for a woman to wear bare legs outside of home, so suspender stockings were the top option. As tights developed, women saw much less of a need to wear suspender stockings because tights were just more practical. But a new trend of wearing suspender stockings among business wear is developing. Due to the fact that suspender stockings look quite formal, unless you hide the garter belt under a dress or skirt, it is hard to match suspender stockings with simple clothing. Therefore, business attire is the best combination because it requires a bit more dressing up than just jeans and a t-shirt, but doesn't necessarily have to be sexually suggestive like when stockings are worn with lingerie. The key is to keep from revealing too much. Wear too short of with suspender stockings and it could come off as too sensual. Keep the embellishments on the suspender stockings low-key as well, otherwise it makes them harder to match. A simple, always appropriate option is to pair suspender stockings with a penil or skater skirt, not too short of course, and keep your colors neutral and you can easily make a trendy style statement.
