Nylons are not cheap and for many professional women, they are essential to a work wardrobe. Personally, I hate having to throw out anything that can be reused. For many years now, I have kept pantyhose around that have only slight runs that can be hidden by certain clothes or shoes. That is great except for the fact that I spent too much time in the morning trying to figure out which pair would work with which outfit. Now I have a solution. I write notes to myself on the labels so that I can easily distinguish the bad pairs from the good pairs. This allows me to wear pairs with small ankle runs with boots and slight thigh runs with longer skirts and dresses. I simply stop the run with clear nail polish and then label the nylons for future reference. No more searching for holes or runs, I just look at the label. I even put the ones with more noticeable runs in a plastic bag to keep separate from the others. I use these under slacks when I want to add a little warmth in the winter or when I want to give my legs and behind a more firm appearance under my pants. Hope this tip helps you save money, reduce your waste, and most important of all, save time during your morning rush.
