Candy Baker Glamour Hosiery - Long Legs in the Big City

Candy Baker London are known for their quirky collections of leg-lengthening hosiery. We loved their ultra-glam Classic Crystal collection which included a glitzy version of the classic backseam and more recently, 'Art Deco' injected some fab 1920's glamour into our tights. Now, Candy Baker have taken inspiration from two of the world's most beloved cities - London and Paris - to create 'Big City'.

Best of Hosiery

In light of "Nylon Stockings Day" last Monday, I think it's time for a "best of" hosiery post! Whether you wear tights, stockings, hold-ups or socks it's important to look good in your leg-wear. If you're like me and practically live in thick black tights, I seriously need some excitement in my sock drawer because the sea of M&S 50 Denier tights is getting so dull even though they are so useful for those days where suspender straps require a longer skirt that just makes your legs look stupidly short (me, every day), or those days when stockings are an absolute must, why not stray away from plain lace-tops and go for something a little more special.
