<p>We live in hot weather where NObody wears stockings(“hose”?), but we’re going to a wedding in Connecticut in October…so…if I wear either a black and white print dress or a bright sort of orange dress with a design on it, what are people wearing with that? In the “old days” I’d wear sort of a cream stocking, as that “nude” look was considered unfashionable, but these days I have no idea! Don’t want to look like a rube…any suggestions? Thanks!!</p>
<p>I’m in NH and I haven’t worn stockings in years.</p>
<p>If I am forced to wear stockings (which is usually once a year), I generally go for a Taupe color but you really need to go into the store and look at the brand samples because every brand is different. I like it not too tan, not too white…something in between works well for me.</p>
<p>Well, Kate Middleton (now Duchess of Cambridge) has made the nude or sheer stocking come back in fashion - if that helps
