I’m a little obsessed with bright contrast seam stockings right now. It’s getting colder here in the US as winter is creeping up, and it’s time to start covering our legs before they freeze right off! Retro-inspired seamed stockings are as classic and glamorous as they come, but the new trend of having a bright or contrasting color seam adds an extra detail that I find irresistible. It flashes ever-so-subtly as your cross your legs, and everyone will want to watch you walk away!

My fixation started with these nude and red Jonathan Aston stockings. I got a pair a few months ago, and have been desperately waiting for the fall to come so I can find an occasion to wear them out!

Here are some more from Leg Avenue and Pamela Mann:

These stark backseams also have the great bonus of making your legs appear longer and leaner - so show them off! It is, however, a bit difficult to find a wide variety of colors. My dream would be to have a stocking wardrobe full of pairs similar to the Jonathan Aston ones, but in several different colors like purple or blue! If I ever find them, of course The Lingerie Post readers will be the first to know. And if you find some, please let us know in the forums!
