Well, I was going to write an introduction for my upcoming event, Fishnet Stockings week, but I’ve found something better to talk about instead. As you can tell from the title, this entry is the fourth in a series. In all of my previous “Look for less” posts, I’ve had to settle for finding a similar item, something which carried the same theme even if it wasn’t expressed in the same way. This time, however, I’ve found a budget item with the exact same pattern as the luxury one…

Stuff I’ve been reading lately…
Dollhouse Bettie just wrote a great piece on how to choose the right vintage stockings for your height and proportions.
Stocking Vixen is a new hosiery blog I’m already hooked on.
Sock Dreams has a Sock Journal which is chock full of nifty information about their products.

While we’re on the subject of sheer mesh onesies, a certain someone I know expressed an interest in the all-but-sold-out Stella McCartney Louise Dancing Bodysuit.
Well…if that person is still interested, I’m sure he’ll be pleased to find out that Lille Boutique is currently selling it for 50% off.
Happy shopping!

Never in my life will I be able to justify the extravagance that is a Stella McCartney bodysuit, and believe you me, I’ve come up with some pretty convoluted ways of persuading myself to buy yet another undergarment. But this time, no matter how much I scheme, I simply can’t wrap my mind around paying $200 for what basically amounts to a black mesh leotard…even if that leotard is one of the sexiest things I’ve seen in recent memory.
So what’s a poor little Stockings Addict to do?
Surprise!

I didn’t know this, but UK retailer Sheer Nylons (mentioned in these two posts) also sells vintage lingerie…including some pieces I’ve never seen before. Take a gander at these delectable delights…

Bold, graphic stockings are an ever-popular design trend and this season is no exception. The new twist for spring, however, is hosiery with geometrically inspired patterns. Both Falke and Wolford showcase tights with stylized lines and diamonds as part of their new collections. However at $45.00 and $31.00 USD a pair, respectively, it’s kind of hard to see myself indulging this fad.

All three panties are on sale for $18.75 each (an epic markdown from the original price of $95.00) at Kiki de Montparnasse.
I own the lock panty in size large, and, quite unlike the garter tank, these knickers delivered. If you like them, better pick up a pair (or even the whole set!) before they sell out again.

These gorgeous, retro-styled, diamond print stockings from Sheer Nylons are almost enough to make me forget about my six month shopping hiatus.
Someone please buy these and tell me how they awesome they are?
…
Please?
