two confessions

[Alan H]

1. I like off white/cream kilt hose.

........and I hate my black hose. I really like the sort-of-oatmeal hose I got from Hamilton Dry Goods, though, and will be buying a gray pair from them.

Anybody else here like off-white dress hose? I don't think they look out of place or "wrong" at all, but my tastes have been formed quite recently. Pure white hose, like my rugby socks are a bit glaring, but cream.....not to my eyes.

2. I've been outrageously busy at work and between department politics, budget reallocations and ***insert politically incorrect rambling here*** Department Director, I will be jobless in six to ten weeks. So I haven't felt like, nor had much time to post. I review the threads several times a week, though so I'm staying in touch.

[John M.]

So sorry to hear you've got problems with work.
Sometimes these things just happen to be great oppertunities. Hope it all works out for you.

[MacMullen]

Also sorry to hear about your job.

I do like cream dress hose, although I do like black hose for casual wear.

[Big Dave]

1. I too like white/cream colour hose. I have two pairs of white, which I wear quite often.

2. As for your job, no worries, good things will happen.

[Nick]

I'm sorry too to hear about your job problems.

I like off-white/cream hose. I don't like white. To me, there's nothing at all wrong with off-white, and I don't really have any desire to get another color at the moment (though I may get gray or green at some point).

Shoot, I've taken to wearing (white) soccer socks for everyday use. $7 for six pairs at Target. I'm a cheap bastard, what can I say?

Gosh Alan - I'm sorry to hear about your job woes - but its like they say, when one door closes another door opens...

Now I have a confession... when no one is home I pull down all the blinds, play some Enter the Haggis real loud and dance around the house in pure white pipers hose with popcorn tops - ok so that's a lie - but I thought it might bring you a chuckle.

I prefer oatmeal hose but own one pair of off-white hose for when I feel like dressing up a bit.

Take care young man!
