Reader Question: Wearing Hosiery to the Office

The problem with the options you posted above is that if the office is conservative enough to require hose in the summer, it is also too conservative for a patterned type like those to be appropriate.

The hose you depicted, while very cute, are also a bit young. Do you have any suggestions for summer hose that can be worn with a suit in a conservative setting? I’d love to find some good options!

This post was written in mind for our reader question that asked about wearing fishnets to the office. Some of our readers just like keeping their legs covered in the summer months even if their office has a casual dress code policy. Others work in a conservative environment where their legs must simply be covered but have more flexibility by being able to wear patterned hose. It is the term conservative that is left up for interpretation. We’ll write another post this week on summer hosiery that is geared towards a more corporate environment. Thanks for your comments!
