One of the things I dread about traveling these days is the trip through security. I’m often smuggling very ugly knee-highs under my trousers, and when I remove my shoes, I’m petrified that other chic travelers will catch a glimpse of the sausage-leg caused by tight leg bands, or perhaps worse, a saggy pile of fallen nylon around my ankles.
I’ll no longer be bothered by either of these horrors since I’ve discovered Spanx ultra-sheer knee highs. My Hi-Knees (yes, that’s the name) have a soft comfortable leg band that stays put and doesn’t leave a mark on my calves. Naturally, the leg is very sheer, and the toe reinforced (against my pointy toe boots). Hi-Knees come in four different colors (buff, nude, cocoa and black) and in packs of two pairs.
But what excites me even more – and perhaps will excite the security staff at the airport as well – is that Hi-Knees also come in FISHNET – and in three colors (nude, chocolate and of course, black). Thank you, thank you Spanx, for managing to make knee-highs sexy – and for making the trip through the security line a bit more bearable.
