Yes I am telling my age. I used the clear nail polish to stop the seam in the pantyhose from running any further.

No I gave up pantyhose a long time ago. They were always so uncomfortable I was glad when I retired no more pantyhose. LOL

I would carry a bottle of clear nail polish in my handbag every day when I went to work just for that purpose!! LOL

@on the bay most women go bare legged or tights, no more stockings or panty hose

@mspatmac -

I know that most women do that, but I still wear actual panty hose when I

wear a skirt or dress.

I would however not repair them anymore with nail polish. I actually would buy new ones.

I also like tights.

I dont know how women wear shoes with no socks or tights or yes panty hose.

And I'm never very tan or use tanning stuff so I think that's not such a good look with no covering.

I do like to swim the butterfly so I don't wear panty hose then lol!

And they are uncomfortable, I admit.

I also have ones that are half tights and half panty hose and are very pretty.

I get what you're saying and I too are very very fair but I have little opportunity to dress up anymore. The last time I wore panty hose was to a family wedding about 2 yrs ago.I put my finger through the first pair I tried to put on, second pair went on OK but ran before I got to church LOL No more, maxi skirts and flats is all I'll wear now.

I don't think I remember how to put them on. I have such cute outfits hanging in my closet I haven't worn in a long time. Much too soon though to get rid of. I still can fit into them but it sure would give me more space in my closet if I did.

Yeeeeessss! Two staples of my earlier working life! I remember my sister bought me my first pair of L'eggs and it was in an Easter basket! I was like -- what the heck is this??? I thought it was fantastic!!!!! I did work pantyhose the majority of my working career and I always had a bottle of clear nail polish in my desk drawer. The women always came to me asking to borrow my polish!!!

Oh, this took me into the "wayback machine."

When I started working, pantyhose had just appeared on the scene. I can remember seeing rows and rows of the L'eggs in all the stores. They seemed like a luxury then.

One afternoon, when walking out for lunch (I worked in downtown St. Louis), it was a very windy day. A young woman just ahead of me was struggling to keep her skirt down when a gust of wind finally won. Up it went to reveal a bare bottom underneath her pantyhose.

She turned to me and we both just laughed and laughed.

I loved those little egg packages and had tons of them stashed at home and at work!

I remember this too. Fortunately I never had a job that required a dress and panty hose. I always wore pants. The few times I did have to wear them though I always put a hole in them. I just could not stand them. They would eventually start to fall down and I would pull them up. In summer they were hot.I never ever got more than one wear out of them and couldn't figure how women wore them more than once. I figured they had to spend tons of money every week just buying new ones.

@ECBGYep, those were my favorite pantyhose, and I always had an emergency clear nail polish in my purse for those pesky runs in my panryhose !!!

OMG, I remember when L'Eggs first came out - finally affordable hose! If I remember correctly, the L'Eggs delivery staff were all women. I rarely wear pantyhose now that I'm retired. I don't always feel comfortable going bare legged, but have taken to wearing thigh-highs with dresses instead. On rare occasions, I'll wear pantyhose if I need them for a smoothing effect.

Girl, did you know hairspray will help? Not as good of course! Panty hose kept me from freezing to death at times.
