Sparkly Pantyhose for New Year’s Eve

Enjoy!  This is me and my relative posing in sparkly pantyhose for the holiday season.  She came over for a visit a few months ago and I asked her to take some photos with me with the upcoming holidays in mind.

Happy New Year!

My pantyhose has metallic fibre pattern on it and her pantyhose has diamond look crystals attached to it.  Both are 40 den, seasonal collection by Fiore.  To make us matching, we both wore black suede shoes.  Felt good to celebrate in Lurex!

I just can’t do it on New Year’s without a beautiful pair of pantyhose.

Pantyhose Models from WamInStyle and Holiday Greetings

Written by Jessica

My friends, if you like to see some photos of pantyhose models, I recommend to visit WamInStyle website.  I even had a pleasure of meeting them this summer when I was visiting Russian and we even collaborated on a photoshoot.

Their main theme is wetlook – it’s a fun of doing something that your mother told you to never do, i.e. get your fancy clothes wet.  Their models can walk into a fountain or jump into a river during their photoshoots.  Having said that, they absolutely love pantyhose and stockings, so majority of their shoots don’t go without some kind of hosiery involved.

There is currently a special on subscription to WamInStyle.  Their pantyhose models are just divine, up for any kind of play!

Also, to my knowledge, they accept requests from their members and even non-members who are interested in a specific photoshoot.

*Dear friends, please remember what makes this blog possible – your purchases at the shop section.  Would there be a sleek pair of stockings or pantyhose there that you’d like for yourself?  Please visit our online hosiery shop.*

Anne Vyalitsyna, Russian Top Model, wearing pantyhose and stockings

Anne Vyalitsyna is a 26 year old Russian model, also known as Anne V.  She started modeling at a very young age and became a sensation.  This particular photoshoot is for Macy’s.

Written by Julia, Ukraine

Anne Vyalitsyna is a freckled Russian supermodel who became a professional of the highest class in her field. Today thousands of Russian girls would dream to be like her.

Anne Vyalitsyna, also known as Anne V, was born in the city of Gorky, now Nizhny Novgorod, on March 19, 1986.  Currently she is 26 years old.

Anne began her career in modeling at the age of 15 – she was noticed by the IMG agents in the search of new faces for MTV’s Fashionably Loud Europe.  Anne was cast and started a contract with IMG Paris, and later with IMG New York.

white stockings, sheer, lingerie

Anne Vyalitsyna was captured on the covers of the famous glossy magazines: Vogue, ELLE, Glamour.  She is nicknamed GlossAnna in the so-called group of three V’s.

 

The group of three V’s is from the initial letters of the names of the most successful and popular Russian top models in the early 2000s: Natalia Vodianova, Anne Vyalitsyna and Eugenia Volodina.  Vodianova – Volodin- Vyalitsyna achieved a level of professional recognition up to a point of disbelief.

These three women were referred to as “second wave” of Russian models.  First wave were models from big cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg.  These three, however, were from small cities in the suburbs.

Their success was achieved without any discounts on the country of origin, place of birth or a difficult childhood.  It became clear that the interest in these models is not a result of the exotic craze for women of Russian nationality.

It is difficult to find a more desirable and sexy woman in the world.  In an interview with Australian newspaper “The Age”, Anne Vyalitsyna said: “I wanted to be a model since childhood, since I was playing with my Barbie dolls.”

However, there is a contradiction.  No one realizes how far this dolled up image is from Anne’s favorite style.  This 26-year-old model prefers jeans, men’s shirts and sweaters. Would have her will, she would generally dressed as a tomboy.

 

Through her love for the cinema, she met the actor Leonardo Di Caprio.  They spent a few hot days in Ibiza in August 2009.  But despite of the stories, these rumors of romance between them are not confirmed.

However, Anne had a romantic relationship with the group’s lead singer Adam Levine of Maroon 5, but in April 2012, after a two-year relationship, the couple broke up.

Also, according to U.S. tabloid, this top model was fascinated by the famous actor, star of the TV series “True Blood”, Alexander Skarsgard.

There are reports that the Russian model Anne Vyalitsyna, Victoria’s Secret Angel, will play a role in the sequel to “Die Hard”.

The fifth part of the “Die Hard”, tentatively called “A Good Day to Die Hard” is due to come out in theatres in February 2013.

 

Anne Vyalitsyna was one of the determined beauties who raised the rating of Russian models to an incredible height.  Her, agent Duncan Ord, once said, “Russian have this work ethic, which is not found in any other nationality”.

She is glamorous in her photos, but in her spare time she prefers to be a total tomboy. Is that a contradiction?

Anne got her excellent reputation not only through her looks, but also through her work ethic and discipline.

Is there such thing as too bright or too patterned when it comes to pantyhose?

Is there such thing as too bright or too much when it comes to hosiery?  Below are some designs by Zohara tights, Israeli brand (even though most likely not made there).

I personally find this a bit of an overkill.  The fact that the model looks pissed off also puts me off.  What do you think?

Hanukkah Pantyhose Party

I went to see my accountant on the first day of Hanukkah and to my surprise she was also wearing fancy pantyhose.  Don’t we look cute together?

Her family is Jewish, but they follow local traditions too – that explains the decorations under the tree.  The tree to them is just a cute thing, not related to any religion.

I pulled up my knee high skirt and posed with her for some photos.  She was surprised to see me so excited about what she was wearing.  Well, I guess it’s because I never see her in pantyhose!

I think that sparkly of patterned hosiery is a great way to add some spirit to a holiday outfit.

Romanian Supermodel Madalina Ghenea, girlfriend of Gerard Butler

Article by Camelia, our Romanian Connection

Born in Slatina, Romania, Madalina Ghenea has started her fashion career at the age of 15, in Italy. The young woman has crossed the frontiers of fashion and tried her luck, successfully, in television and movies and that brought her to the attention of the public.

After being tagged in adventures with stars like Leonardo DiCaprio and Eros Ramazzotti, the top model is now in a serious relationship with Gerard Butler, the actor from 300 Heroes of Thermopile”. Madalina Ghenea has become, during the last years, one of the most famous Romanian models, with a great career in Italy, but has just recently found a sentimental fulfilment.

The beautiful Romanian has immediately caught the eye of some top stars like the already mentioned Leonardo Dicaprio (the paparazzi took photos of the two of them together), Eros Ramazzotti and the Oscar winning actor Adrien Brody.  The press speculated greatly on these adventures, but Madalina Ghenea has always avoided speaking of these things.

And now, what seemed like a new conquestthe Scottish actor Gerard Butler has proven to be much more, especially that the star has officially confirmed their relationship. Invited on Jay Leno’s, “The Tonight Show”, Butler publicly admitted that his new girlfriend is a 24 years old aged Romanian woman. We have been together for seven months, it’s not a record”, the 43 years old actor joked.

He is known for the movies RocknRolla” and P.S. I Love You”, but in the same time for the part of king Leonidas, the hero of Termopile, in the movie 300.

Butler confessed that when he met Ghenea he was so impressed of her beauty that he fell in love at first sight. The couple met early this year, while shooting an advertisement. This fall, they were photographed in loving gestures on the Coast of France.

 

Translation to French:

Né à?Slatina, Roumanie, MГ„Ж’dГ„Ж’lina Ghenea a commencé sa carrière de mode à?l’âge de 15 ans, en Italie. La jeune femme a franchi les frontières de la mode et a tenté sa chance, avec succès, en télévision et les films, et cela l’a portée à?l’attention du public.

 

Après avoir été marquée dans des aventures avec des stars comme Leonardo DiCaprio et Eros Ramazzotti, le modèle haut de gamme est maintenant dans une relation sérieuse avec Gerard Butler, l’acteur de «300 – Héros de la thermopile”. MГ„Ж’dГ„Ж’lina Ghenea est devenue, au cours des dernières années, l’un des modèles les plus célèbres de Roumanie, avec une belle carrière en Italie, mais a récemment achevé une vie sentimentale réussie.

 

La belle roumaine a immédiatement attiré l’attention de quelques stars, comme le déjà?mentionné Dicaprio Leonardo (les paparazzi ont pris des photos de tous les deux ensemble), Eros Ramazzotti et l’acteur qui a gagné l’Oscar, Adrien Brody. La presse a beaucoup spéculé sur ces aventures, mais MГ„Ж’dГ„Ж’lina Ghenea a toujours évité de parler de ces choses.

Et maintenant, ce qui semblait être une nouvelle conquête – l’acteur écossais Gerard Butler – s’est avéré être beaucoup plus, surtout que le star a confirmé officiellement leur relation. Invité à?Jay Leno, “The Tonight Show”, Butler a publiquement admis que sa nouvelle petite amie est une femme roumaine de 24 ans. “Nous avons été ensemble pendant sept mois, ce n’est pas un record», les dit l’acteur de 43 ans en riant.

Il est connu pour les films mais dans le même temps pour la partie du roi Leonidas, le héros de Termopile, dans le film „300”.

 

Butler a avoué que lorsqu’il a rencontré Ghenea il a été tellement impressionné de sa beauté qu’il est tombé amoureux au premier regard. Le couple s’est rencontré au début de cette année, lors du tournage d’une publicité. Cet automne, ils ont été photographiés faisant des gestes d’amour sur la cГѓВґte de la France.

Miranda Kerr in a Circus Outfit and Pantyhose

I came across this outfit that the fashion model Miranda Kerr wore to a Halloween party – she is supposed to be the circus presenter.  Sexy!  I wonder what her hubby, Orlando Bloom, wore to the party.

White Pantyhose in a Club – Weird?

woman in white pantyhose in a club - weird and rare sightWell, well, I didn’t expect to see that.  I went to a club to watch international DJ competition and I spotted this woman dressed in a vintage apple-print dress and white pantyhose.

She was also wearing glasses and her dancing very well matched her appearance.  I was surprised with what she was wearing, so I figured I’ll take a photo for you.

On one hand I am amused, but on the other hand I can say that I have respect for this woman.  Her style is very different from the crowd, but she seemed to be quite confident about it. Of course, I was wearing pantyhose too, but mine were dark grey and they blended well with my outfit.

Besides that young woman I don’t remember spotting any other person in pantyhose that tight.

what not to wear – pantyhose and uggs or rubber boots

Michelle Trachtenberg in pantyhose and uggs

Here is an example of a horrible combination of pantyhose and rubber boots.  Oh, is she planning to clean the barn and look sexy for the cows while doing it?  I only wear rubber boots if I am going to the forest or to the stables.

hunter rubber boots

To my surprise I took this photo at a fashion show, not at the cowshed. Pantyhose and rubber boots combo.

I love pantyhose, but I believe that it should be worn in harmony with other garments.  Therefore, in some cases it’s better not to wear it rather than to look stupid.

Another one of my most disliked combinations is pantyhose and ugg boots.  One of the local bloggers in Vancouver even created an article about how much she dislikes the ugg fashion.  She has quite a number of people that agree!

I remembered another horror combination, but I couldn’t take a picture because I was actually at work at the time.  There was a woman wearing 40 den pantyhose  and men’s flat sports sandals.

summer fashion faux pas

Vanessa Hudgens is wearing Uggs even in the summer, without hosiery or socks.

But let’s also not forget that in July sometimes there are women going around in Uggs or winter boots with bare legs.  Let’s say, like on the photo here Vanessa Hughes, actress and singer, comes off her tour bus in Uggs and a summer outfit.

Isn’t it time for some common sense?  Here is another example of bright pink pantyhose and uggs spotted in Vancouver by a local blogger, Side Walk Runway.

It is not unusual that Vancouver got ranked as one of world’s top worst dressed cities because of its love for yoga pants.

But I’d personally add more items to that list that make Vancouver locals so sloppy when it comes to keeping up their look.

Seamless pantyhose – Wolford

Seams have always left their imprints on me after wearing my pantyhose and I never even wondered if it can be any different.  However, I keep on hearing about SEAMLESS pantyhose.  What does it mean?

I was talking to another person today about seamless pantyhose and it looks like there are several brands out there with such styles.  I was wondering if anybody here would know which brands currently have this model.  Please let me know, I’d like to try them some day!

I’d assume that one of the benefits would be that there will be no marks from the seams left on my skin after wearing them.  Such marks take up to 40 minutes to fade.  For this reason models are required to come to photoshoots in loose clothing without any underwear to avoid marks.

OK, adding some information at a later date, 3 months after.  I tried seamless pantyhose that a friend gave me to try – excellent feeling, very nice idea.  Too bad that they all tend to be so expensive!

Update, 8 months later – my fan David from Canada sent me some seamless Wolford!  That was amazing.  Wow, thanks! Now I have it in different colours.

Update… a a few years later.  David from Canada got me Fogal.  Seamless Fogal pantyhose called Una is very nice.  Low rise.  Beautiful!  It was even featured in my newsletter.
