how do you wear stockings? I mean seriously, I can't get them on!

[washingonawednesday]

Christmas 'present' for DP. Stockings and suspenders purchased. How the he'll do you wear them?

Anyone tried clipping a suspender onto a stocking at the back, from behind so they match up with the line?

And then when I finally managed it, I'd put them on over my knickers so I couldn't go to the bloody loo!

Is there a female instruction manual I wasn't issued at birth or something?

I wear them. First of all - put the suspender belt on and relax! Then take the stockings out of the packet and put them on very gently and smoothly - clip the front on, then stretch the back one so that you can clip it somewhere in the middle.

I never buy stockings with a seam so I don't have a 'line' to worry about - and I also have a suspender belt with six clips rather than the usual four so nothing moves.

Oh... and don't forget your knickers.. but if you do, don't worry about it.

I buy hold-ups although you only get about 2 wears out of them before they give up the ghost!

As long as the front clips are straight then I am not that bothered-in fact on a night out last week I somehow managed to lose both back clips and had to ask another girl to help me fix the other ones as I was a bit em...merry

I used to wear the belt slightly higher than the knickers. Could then still slip knickers down. Obviously can't pull them down to your ankles but can move them down to the clips which is all you need for weeing!

Errr don't you put your knickers over them so you can get them down to wee?

I also struggle to do the back ones up OP, interested to find out how you do it without wishing you'd never bloody bothered as it's all such a faff!!

Don't you put the knickers on after the suspenders? Otherwise unclip suspender belt then pul knickers down to have a wee.

You can attach rear suspenders to stockings before you put stockings on.

Agree instruction manual would be useful.

Ahhhh attach the rear one before putting them on OF COURSE!

Attach stockings to suspender belt- then put the whole she-bang in like a pair of tights. Trouble free

The seams, carefully starting at the leg bit gather the stocking up until you get to the foot iyswim. As long as you are careful and go slow the seam should be still straight. Slip the foot bit on, and slowly pull up.
The back on, I pop the suspenders on, then pop on knickers. Knickers help to hold the straps in place. Then stand up holding the back strap, bend leg, resting foot on bed and clip.

Knickers on over suspenders of course .

Knickers over the top. It means you can keep your stockings and suspenders on when you're powdering your nose and when you're shagging.

Attach the back clips of the suspenders to the stockings in line with the seam before you put them on. Pull stockings on and look in the mirror to check they're straight. Fasten suspenders.

I put knickers underneath because it looks and feels nicer but the whole point of suspenders if you can take them down when you go to the loo more easily that tights!

Knickers over the top!
I always wear stockings rather than tights for going "out", as it is inevitable that I will rip tights on one of the many trips to the loo

Although it was draughtier than it would have been with tights the one time I somehow managed to rip my knickers...

I always clip the suspenders onto the stockings before I put them on, and then put them on like tights. Then knickers over the top for reasons stated by pps. :)

Knickers? With stockings and suspenders? Why?!?!?!?

Clip suspenders onto stockings, lay them out strait, pull on like tights. Knickers go on first! Get a stretchy suspender belt, not a rigid one- pull the whole thing down to go loo, like you would tights. (Trust me, I frequent certain.... clubs!)

Fucking stupid idea - I bet a man invented them. Why do we make life even harder for ourselves?!

Knickers over the top are much better when frequenting certain....clubs.

Euphemia- they're amazing!! I hate tights, never ever been comfortable in a pair. Holdups or s&s are the way to go.

(No knickers at all is better in certain of the certain clubs!)

Definitely knickers on over the top, I've always clipped the belt in first then attached the stockings.

What is the point of them? Apart from the kinky bit.

And what IS the kinky bit about them? Never managed to work out what dp enjoys so much?

The number of times long ago and never again I've wrenched a muscle in my neck or shoulder trying to clip the fucking things on at the back and NOW you tell me that you can pre-load them?

DH tells me that stockings er, frame things and add shape. God, I really shouldn't be asking him such questions when I am about to go to bed with a heavy cold / period

Wear them under your pants.

Put suspenders on, then pants and pull the little suspender elastic thing through so under pants.

Stand up, put the stocking fold the stocking down, lift one leg and pull the stocking over your foot, put your foot up on the bed and pull up as high as possible.

Connect the front and then put your foot down and do the back.
