Absolutely beautiful

I ordered 4 pairs of white stockings in total as I needed some to match a suspender basque and thong set that I bought recently from Lovehoney and I often have problems with the fit of stockings. The package arrived super-quickly, as is always the case with Lovehoney.

On taking these out of the packet I noticed how much nicer they looked compared to the stock photo on the website and packaging. The photo makes them look as if the pattern is cut into the lace but this is not the case! The pattern is embroidered onto the tops in a gorgeous satiny sheeny-type thread.

Once on, these look absolutely beautiful! The photo just does not do them justice! One thing to note is that they are not the brilliant bright white that I was expecting - the main body is pure white but the embroidered thread is an off-white. At first this made me think that they wouldn't match the set I had in mind but I put them all on together and the difference didn't matter - they are just so beautiful that I had to keep them! They have gel lining around the top and stayed in place very well.

I ordered both the small and medium sizes in these. I am a size 10 at the moment having put a little weight on but I am also only 5'1", which means that stockings often come much higher up the thigh on me as they would on taller ladies. Because of this the band falls on the widest part of my thigh and I sometimes have problems with them being a little tight and the dreaded muffin top! I tried the medium ones on first and they were absolutely perfect, not at all too tight, so I didn't even bother to try the small size which I am returning. I think taller ladies would get away with the sizes stipulated on Lovehoney but if you are short and have the same problems I do I suggest going up a size.

Going away surprise

Just been delivered and was excited about receiving them.

Just tried on and got to say they fit wonderful, so comfy I could have kept them on the rest of day.

Go up to middle of thigh with ease and have the silicone on them to help keep them up. No nipping or rolling, which is great, adds to the sexy look I was going for.

I've got quite chunky thighs an got them in a large,so happy with them.

I actually want them in other colours. I ordered a white underwear set to go with the lace around the top. Matches perfect with that and it's so so pretty. There is definitely going to be fireworks in the bedroom.

Thanks Lovehoney. As usual great delivery - wasn't expected till tomorrow.
