Guidelines on bare legs and season?

| Is there some point during the year where it's no longer ok to do bare legs beneath a skirt or a dress and tights or pantyhose are required? I'm thinking along the lines of past a certain point when it gets cold -- do people still do bare legs if you want a nude look, or is it not appropriate (or just look stupid)? Does it matter if it's an office environment (setting aside the office's own policy about hose) or evening? |

I go bare all year - at work. Formal events, I'll do the PH in black.
I will do tights on occasion with boots, but since I wear mostly boots, I don't really need hose. Plus, it's not 1960. |

| How do you keep your feet from sweating and ruining shoes?? That is my issue. |

I never, ever wear hose. I'm bare legged all year (I'm not super pasty so can do that). I do tights, though. I personally think hose . . . you're dating yourself by wearing them. And they aren't flattering. As for my feet sweating, they don't really. I mean, I'm sure they sweat. But, I don't have stinky feet issues. Just lucky there. |

| Bare legs look ridiculous in the middle of the winter! At least buy yourself a pair of tights for God's sake. |

I don't think they look ridic, but I would not be able to do it every day for work - I would just get too cold after awhile! |

| What's the deal with trouser socks? Are they still ok for pants? I was looking for some the other day and had a hard time finding them, so I thought maybe they were no longer in style. They seem like a basic to me. |

OK not the PP but for those of us over 50 that don't feel or "hopefully" look over 50 you can see the conundrum. I hate hose, love the bare leg but had to tell my over 70 mother that her short shorts were not cool! |

| To anything that goes to the extreme to "keep up with the fashion" is ridiculous (i.e. not wearing something on your legs when it's 4 degrees outside). I don't care what you say, but there is absolutely no way that you can stay warm wearing nothing under a skirt in that kind of weather. I also think that it's a ridiculous look when I see a woman walking to metro in flip flops exposing her bare legs while wearing a coat, hat and a scarf to keep warm. Neither fashionable or attractive. |

| I think for Fall it's ok to have bare legs, but just depends on the temperature. Anything after mid November and you need some tights or pantyhose. |

| Pantyhose do not do shit to keep your legs warm, so that's not an argument. |
