 Re: nylons or no?
Pantyhose : never, bare : approx half the time, stockings (hold-ups or suspended) the other half.
I enjoy anklets etc and also the shine my bare legs get when I put a lot of time into daily grooming- hence I prefer to go bare a lot.
I really prefer stockings for colour only and usually always go for a matte extremely sheer (7 to 10 denier max) lace top stocking. Given the fragile nature of these stockings I do go through quite a few pairs which is another stocking deterrent. Suspenders clasps also show through clothes as a bump, and you can end up flashing stocking tops depending on what you are wearing - this can create undue attention....unless you are feeling that way inclined!
I also wear a lot of peep-toed heels with painted toe-nails and foot jewellery so I won't wear hosiery in these cases. Additionally hosiery with sling backs and d'orsays I find increases the liklihood of my heel lifting out of the shoe or the straps slipping all the time. I do a lot of walking and I want control of my heels, the last thing I want is to slip out of a shoe crossing a busy street.
My shoes are just as comfy bare or in hosiery - it comes down to practicality and what colour I want my legs to be.
