I wonder if any of you all keep an accurate record on just how many women in your congregations wear just plain ol' granny drawers...since we are keep record on these things?

Our ushers keep a chart at the door. Last time I checked, most were wearing....... You'll never know!

Seriously, it isn't rocket science to notice that someone is or is not wearing nylons. It can make or break an outfit. When it breaks the outfit, you will stick out like a sore thumb. That's just the truth of it.

I've seen way more fashion faux pas committed by women wearing the wrong color nylons than not wearing them at all.

I've rarely seen women wearing colored hose, so I don't know. I think I saw someone wear white with dark shoes, but I could have been mistaken. LOL!

What about those "tattoo" looking hose? Would you wear those?

Well, colors are pretty bad, but I'm mostly talking about pale skinned women wearing really dark brown pantyhose or dark skinned women wearing sheer white pantyhose. It looks...strange.

You mean like these? Not a chance.

Oh, I see what you mean. I haven't seen a lot of that, but I agree. It looks really strange.

Yea, those. LOL! I bought some black trouser socks with a pretty, light lace pattern. I really like them. I think I have some brown ones also. Don't care for navy - ever.

I have to tell you tho - another thing that is amazing me is how much shorter the skirts are getting. When I was in church last Sunday, 2 of the 3 praise singers had on skirts that were above their knees. I see nothing wrong with that as long as you have the legs for it and as long as you can keep all the other details from showing underneath
