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'm going to hazard a guess that you aren't really a mum, 'Jo'. Is 73 the number of women who turned you down on an online dating site, so you are having to resort to trying to get your rocks off on mumsnet?

If they've got the back seam, I think I'd connect the back suspender first, then gather the stockings right down to the toes, put toes in and ease the stockings up. Fasten the suspender belt, before putting knickers on. Then once suspender belt is done up, fasten front suspenders to the front of the stockings, then put knickers on.

That's how I'd do it.

Oh and so it is a zombie thread - I'm guessing the deletion was a spammy advert type post then?

More of a thinly veiled attempt to get us to talk about the fun we have wearing stockings Confused

Jump has bumped two old threads about stocking today. No other posts on the site.

Gross.

Knickers go over top, keeps back ones in place and then clip as near to back as poss: dont buy seamed ones, they always move later on in the day and go wonky! Love them - but was in my prime in the 80's when they were really fashionable for while. Men like the 'easy access', the bit of v soft thigh skin above the tops and the silky feel if you 'leave them on' ... to answer other poster on why men lurve them. Plus if you have slim legs like i had back then they do look rather good...black with v lacy tops never fails.. ! Men are visual, anything that emphasizes shape is a win win etc ...

I have a corsety type thing with sussies attached what is best way To do them up, bloody palaver when I want to wear it.

I wear stockings and suspender belt all the time. It's best if your panties / knickers go over the belts then you can go to the loo. Easily. Fastening the back suspender can take some mastering. I usually attach them with the belt around my bum then pull it up afterwards attach the front ones then adjust everything so they are super sexy.
Not bad for a guy hey. If you need makeup or dressing tips ask a drag queen or crossdresser. Grin

ZOMBIE THREAD ALREADY RESURRECTED & REZOMBIED!!

Another fan of stockings and suspenders here! I used to get thrush a lot when wearing tights and then there was always the issue with the wretched things never being long enough and its so uncomfortable spending the day with the crotch round mid thigh. Hitching them up or going to the loo to pull them up properly became ridiculously time consuming!!

Also put knickers on over suspenders - think its only the models who, of course, never need the toilet(!) who can wear knickers under suspender belt!!
