Panty Hose or No Panty Hose, tis is the Question

sicilianchica

I am getting married in a week and getting all the last minute essentials I need this weekend. I have open toed shoes and plan on getting my toes in a french tip. Should I get pantyhose or not? I never usually wear them unless it's a fancy occasion, but I always think they don't show the toes well on shoes.

Never wear panty hose with open toed shoes; it completly defeats the purpose. I'd also rethink the french tip on the toes. Toe nails are never supposed to be long enough for them to have a white tip, natural or painted on!

I agree with this. I know a lot of people do french tips on toes... but, I think they look ridiculous.  Go with a natural color or even a bold color with no pantyhose.  Pantyhose are only appropriate when wearing closed toe AND heeled shoes. If you are wearing open toes or slingbacks, don't ever wear hose.

Unless you're used to wearing pantyhose, don't, especially somewhere over 70.  They're not the most comfortable things.  Some semi-upscale brands (e.g., sold at Macys, not Target, not Bloomingdales) have hose that end at the toes.  Assuming you're in a long dress, the hose won't show.

No Panty Hose.  I like the french pedicure look.

No hose....remember you will be hopefully dancing all night & should probably eliminate anything that would make you uncomfortable. To each their own on the french pedi. IMHO I think an all-over color is classier than a french pedi.

I'm anti panty hose under all circumstances.

No hose!  Hose with open toed shoes is just a no. Ever.  

I agree that french pedis aren't the classiest look, but to each their own.

The only time I wear nylons anymore is if I'm in a business suit or it is cold outside and I'm wearing a heavier skirt.

Good, I am normal then for not wanting to wear panty hose. I also ended up going with a pink color on my toes.  Thanks for all the assistance!
