I knew I missed my girl lessons in there somewhere.

I had _no_ idea that this was a no-no and tacky. At this point I’m just glad that I pretty much live in jeans and boots.

Same here. I haven’t worn hose in years but I remember buying them and having to choose between regular toe or **sandal** toe.

Now I skip the hose and let my whiter-than-white, bruised and battered legs fly.
