Outdoor Hose Report - Restocking & Hosing Up

Went to Metro at City Square Mall, as there was a closing down sale, to stock up on some casual attire (and pantyhose) since it was on the way.  Got the following hose:

ProPeds Elegant All Sheer Support Pantyhose Nude x 2 pairs

ProPeds Support Pantyhose Nude x 2 pair packs

Decided to change into the casual attire I got and the Propeds pantyhose I got as the current pair of black pantyhose I'm wearing under work pants has torn at the panty area and getting uncomfortable.

It was that heart beating moment I experienced when I had my first experience last week to classes but I told myself: "why bother about what others may think", and stepped out of the cubicle in pantyhose and berms. 

 

Took the walk through the mall, into the subway station and waited at the platform.  I took an empty door as usual and this time, less conscious about who will be looking at my hosed legs and waited for my train.  Being a rush hour after work, I stepped into the cabin with ample space (at the same time concerned if some careless folk will cause a run at my hosed legs) and just kept myself busy on the phone (afterall it's the only thing to do in public transport when alone).

Train arrived at my stop and took my time to walk up, without bothering who's going to look at my hosed legs; from the corner of my eyes, I noticed no one actually bothers to look and are just making their way to wherever their destination is, or waiters with companion will just chat with their company. 

 

Took the stairs up from the side to LRT platform since my platform is there.  When I arrived at the crowded platform, I could see OLs who are also waiting for the train, and are also not bothered looking at my hosed legs.   Boarded the LRT when it arrived, reached my destination and just walked on casually, tapping my way out at exit. 

 

When I was arriving at my lift lobby, I was a little concerned if neighbours would spot me in hose; no one else was waiting and it a while before the lift descended from the 10th floor.  Neither anyone was waiting nor anyone was exiting from the lift; took my ride up, and reached home.

Hosed Mission successful.

Big Sale Hose Shopping

Dropped by Tampines to transit home after a business meeting and visited Isetan. The skin tone of the Su.Soku pantyhose I wanted was stocked out, probably due to sale and overdemand vs supply. There were 2 young salesgirls close behind me as they were manning a booth nearby the hosiery area but they didn't bother about me. Left since I couldn't find what I needed.

Wandered into Century Square and saw BHG with bright sale banners with controlled entrance and exits; looks like a major discount event. Off I headed straight to the hosiery section; less accessible now as they have stuffed some racks closer in to allow more queuing space. Took my own time rummaging through the entire rack of various pantyhose, used the sample hose to find a suitable skintone. There were female staffs, female customers moving up and down but they weren't bothered by me;probably they were all too busy.

Looked through the various pantyhose a final round after spending about 30mins there before I went to pay and continued my way home. The receipt stated this was a one day bazaar but I'm sure there'll be another chance to return and get the colors and brands I want.

Visual skimmed Sinma's hosiery rack as I passed but nothing interesting.

Another good hose shopping experience (HSE).

Revisited and Found

Early out today so l decided to do some pantyhose shopping alsoo to replace the torn pair I'm wearing. This should be the Guardian house brand support hose that had served me well for more than 20 wears. I needed a pair as wearing torn pantyhose felt like wearing torn pants.

First stop: Robinson City Hall; found the mini hosiery section on th 2nd floor near the lingerie section, but couldn't find what I want. Left in less than 5mins after a quick browse.

Went to Centrepoint Metro but couldn't find the hosiery section so I decided to move on to OG. Took a quick look at the hosiery section which can easily be located from the entrance, couldn't find what I want and decided to leave. The middleaged saleslady spotted me leaving, was helpful and asked if I was looking for stockings. I answered, yes but can't find the brand I want. She replied that this is the only brand they carry and i may like to try other departmental stores. Thanked her and moved on.

Took me awhile to locate the hosiery section when I arrived at Taka; a previous mission here wasn't successful as I walked all the floors but yet couldn't locate it, especially after they revamped the layout. So it's wedged right in the corner of the lingerie section. It's a decent treasure as I could see quality brands including Falke, and some range which couldn't be found in other stores.

Took my time to shop while the PRC salesgirls chatted among themselves, completely oblivious to my presence.

Got what I needed, paid at cashier (the auntie was very polite and didn't give me a weird look) and went to Gents to replace torn hose.   Walked off in a comfortable pair of Peach Propeds Elegant Sheer Support pantyhose.
