On an Aristoc vibe at the moment in their nude collection – as they’re so amazeballs! Aristoc has got to be one of my favourite brands that produce affordable hosiery without breaking the bank and making your legs look flawless!

My Outfit
Let’s go all tropical to work keeping it simple with a cami bodysuit with a bodycon black skirt and adding my new floral kimono to add a bit of colour.
I added my boots to this outfit instead of shoes to make it less work-looking and more on the casual-ish side if you get me.
Hair and jewellery was kept to a minimum today as the kimono was doing the talking for me!

When you get in …
Getting Them On: silky gloves are ready to get the hosiery on this morning! Once again, taking care going over anklets, I did my usual scrunch and roll to make sure I get these on good and proper. These just glided up the legs, and from here I know it’s gonna be a good day!
On The Legs: they are divine! Just like my previous Aristoc review on the Ultra Bare, these are just as good! They have that gorgeous shimmer to them which totally makes the outfit pop like anything!
The denier is like PERFECT if you want that barely there coverage; and it works so well for summer with that light touch coverage it gives to your legs.
The quality is just amazing; no snags, no rips or anything. Even if I did, you wouldn’t be able to see it as it’s near enough skin colour – these are fab!
The fit of them are just amazing; they hug so well on the legs, no loose material anywhere that I could feel and they certainly don’t fall down!
The feel of them are even better; they’re not only shimmery, but they are soft and smooth to touch. Normally they tend to be quite rough, but these are far from it. This is why Aristoc are just amazeballs – they bring me joy!
The Toes & Ankle: so as these aren’t reinforced, you will need to watch out with those long nails making sure they don’t create no unwanted holes! These are perfect to wear with open toe shoes and sandals to get the full effect of them; I don’t know why I didn’t in the end but I know I will be slipping into these again with a pair of open sandals!
There is plenty of wiggle room in these for your toes and feet to breath and not feel squished!
Around the ankles, I had no problems with any wrinkling and crinkling 🙂
The Waistband & Gusset: so these sit real high I have to admit, and I mean like an inch minimum over my belly button.. .And the weirdest thing is I didn’t overstretch them either so how they hell did that happen?
Anyways, these are super comfortable on the waist body should I say! They have a nice thick band, which doesn’t crease or roll over itself during the day (especially when you’re sitting for most of the day).
They have plenty of elasticity in them which is always great, and they hold up the tights really well during the day.
The gusset is one that is cotton but doesn’t blend into the tights that well. You get this white-ish gusset with nude tights that can look a little bold down there!
My Thoughts?
I am loving these, as they will work perfect for summer and showing those gorgeous pins off! I love the low denier with its high quality and that shine is something to die for!
I think they’re fab and I would defo recommend these!
