Woah you guys are so pro in this ! Can I have some help over here? Firstly, does a lower amount of Denier signifies that it is more sheer ? And I love the 2nd and 3rd picture in Post #437, page 22! I wonder what denier is that? I'm trying to buy something alike ! thanks alot Which do you think it looks like ? http://www.asos.com/Asos/Asos-Magic-Shapin...ort=3&clr=Blackhttp://www.asos.com/Gipsy/Gipsy-40-Denier-...ort=3&clr=Blackhttp://www.asos.com/Gipsy/Gipsy-60-Denier-...ort=3&clr=Blackhttp://www.asos.com/Asos/Asos-Luxury-Sheer...rt=-1&clr=Black This post has been edited by Shenay: Dec 17 2010, 12:25 PM

Just went to Isetan & I got the Guanze nude tights & another Japanese brand (4 pairs in 1 packet) which claims to block away UV rays ! I'm loving them ! The Jap one is super sheer & suitable for everyday wear ! However the Guanze one is more for shopping since its not that sheer, but the material is soft to the touch ! Also, bought 2 pairs of fashion tights from Topshop which I love love love !  Here's a picture of one of the Topshop ones.

Rikrik, oh no I'm not working yet! haha, I just want to wear the black ones because they look good under short pants & dresses that are not too long nor too short! The nude ones are meant for days where my clothes doesnt match the blacks, but I want to keep warm, especially in classes  Of course its really nice wearing them to shopping malls! The black ones with designs looks very pretty to me!

hmm because the higher denier and opaque ones are too obvious. sometimes it might not match my outfit. heh. hmm the sheer ones i bought were not too obvious, so it wouldnt look too weird ! haha yea I think when I'm working, black sheer ones are nice !

Rikrik, hahah no I dont mean it that way ! It just feels so soft to the touch, even I keep touching it. So smooth you know what I mean ! Hmm I prefer wearing it when I wear shorts, skirts or dresses. When my legs are exposed. Layering it under jeans & long pants will be too hot for me. I think it's more of a how well they take care of it thing? If taken care very well, it will be less expensive in the long run  Just wore my new ones from Isetan today. I forgot, when there's UV protection, it tend to be abit shiny, hence more obvious  kirashin, hahah no ! I really meant accidentally

@Rikrik I love the 5 toes one too ! But then again, I don't know how to read chinese word & they look abit complicating =( Does Taobao ship straight to Malaysia? If yes, whats their charges like? On a side note, my pair of tights yesterday, they seem abit too short for me, like the upper part can be seen if I wear a short shorts. Should I try to stretch them to elongate them? I bought S where the waist fits perfectly well but the length is a little short. M will be too big on my waist & too long !  @littlebeettle, hey there. Yeah I hope more girls will start wearing them, but now people hardly give the weird stare already !  Good development !

Eh guys ! you might want to try this out ! Asos has free international shipping now. So it's gonna cost about RM30 only ! I wish they had S in stock, but they only got like XL  Maybe it will fit you guys who are like 17x cm or taller ! Check out the size charts x) http://www.asos.com/Ck-By-Calvin-Klein/Ck-...ort=-1&clr=Nude
