GLOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSS! That is all I can say when it comes to these. The Eterno is such an amazing collection to have, and this time I decided to pair them with an outfit you don’t really see me wear a lot.
I am so excited to be wearing these, but as we are practically in winter, this is not really a pair to wear (unless you’re out for the night) so that’s some background to my outfit 🙂

The Review
From The Website: Eterno is perhaps our best selling item from Cecilia de Rafael, and now that range has expanded miraculously. Eterno Breeze 12 is an even more subtle and summer ready design than Eterno 15, their previously most sheer design. The material, dubbed breeze fibre, is airy and lightweight and will be one of those fabrics you forget you have on. It is so warm weather friendly that once you have this design on, you will feel as if the weather is three degrees cooler, on average.
* 12 denier

The Packaging: the model wears the hosiery on the front, and the back goes into more detail about the hosiery along with the sizing guide and hosiery care.
One you get in, you will find these shaped to the legs and feet, folded horizontally around promotional card 🙂
As you can see below, these have a seamless waistband, so I am hoping these stay on me with ease!
Getting Them On: I did my scrunch and roll with my satin gloves to make sure I don’t create any problems for myself. I took care going over anklets, and just admired the shine going up the legs!
On The Legs: flipping heck! I am seriously in love with these.
The quality is spot on; no issues whatsoever during the day including snags, rips or any falling down malarkey.
The fit of these are true to size, so if in doubt, then get the next size up 🙂
The feel of them; I’m just gonna let you imagine here how soft, silk smooth these are! They are incredible, and it just stuns me how my legs look so glossy yet natural?!
I seriously am lost for words for once, so please just see the images below and take a look for yourself why I am in awe:
The Toes & Ankle: from the toes right to the band, you have this shine working it s magic. These aren’t reinforced, so do be careful with your nails. I paired mine with sandals and what a smart move that was as it looked incredible!
The ankles once again have a lovely smooth finish to them as well.
The Waistband & Gusset: okay so I have another encounter with a rolling band! This did drive me mad a little, but thank goodness I wasn’t wearing a bodycon skirt (it would peer through!)
The band did do well most of the day sitting flat, but as these sit quite high, I half expected it to start rolling down a little. It wasn’t too tight on the waist, so it didn’t create any deep markings into the skin.
My Thoughts?
Just get a pair!
