Our office was completely divided last week - upon returning to my desk after lunch a colleague stopped me and said the immortal words "Are you wearing nude tights? And proceeded to gather the entire office around me, to prod and pull at my 15 denier covered legs. Margaret Thatcher and Nora Batty's names were thrown about, until I started to second guess myself. It turns out I am only one of a handful of women walking the planet air hostesses aside that think nude tights are acceptable. The crux of the situation is: I don't like my legs. They are ghostly white, bumpy, porous, veiny sticks and without a nude tight I'd be in trousers literally every day of my life. When my limbs do go out on day release , I find a 15 or 20 denier tight in a very sheer, not matt, but not high shine does just the trick. Gone are the 11 months of the year they've been in hibernation, and in their place, two evenly coloured air-brushed legs.
