Hey Ladies, do you think that fishnet stalkings are tacky or cute?

I wear them, and i love them because they are a throw back to the 20's, 30's and 40's. I always make sure that they look nice instead of trashy.Let me know what you think.

Update:

I'm not really a woman who follows the crowd, i wear what i like.

Update 2:

of course you dont wear stalkings with flats, I always wear them with heels.

Update 3:

STOCKINGS, there thats better.

    I love them. YOu really just have to be aware of what you wear them with. In my case, I wear them with chunky boots (I guess you can say I lean towards the.... punk goth look, or something to that extent), but really. They can look sexy, classy or just plain trashy.

    All in all, wear them! Be yourself. If you like them, go ahead and forget what everyone says! ;-)

    Depends of what you wear them with, and on what occasions. I won't describe it as cute. Deliciously seductive with stiletto heels and long slitted skirt - yes. Cute - no, no way. I'd never wear fishnet with flats. It's like two contradicting styles. Fishnets are evening wear, flats are not evening wear. I can't imagine fishnets as cute. Might I note that they are dangerous that way - they way too easily become tacky. Wrong occasion, wrong shoes, wrong hour of the day, wrong makeup and hairstyle and many more things make them look - yes, tacky.

    I'm confused. Stalkings? As in some one wearing a fish net is stalking you?

    OH! Now I see. You mean fish net 'stockings". Okay, that clears it up.

    I don't have the legs to make those look good. Last time I tried, I ended up looking like your typical, trampie hooker, though most of them look good in fish nets. I have to stick with the boring stuff.

    If you like them, wear them!! Who cares what other people think? If their opinions really counted there's be a lot of us losing sleep at night, and I haven't lost a wink worrying about what others might think. LOL.

    I personally love stockings, not STALKINGS, but I only like the leopard print kinds. The fishnet ones are just way too tacky or way too outdated to be filled into the fashion book. Besides, you can never go wrong with leopard print. Try it, you'll either look like a lost hooker on crack or MK Olsen like she always is. But really, leopard print owns.

    I guess that would depend on the look one is going for.

    I wore them last year for Halloween, I was a French Maid.

    But usually they are not for me. Some people can wear them and not look a slut. But I can't pull that off.

    I love them! I wear them with jean skirts for a casual cute look. I wear them to church with dress clothes. In the the winter, I wear them over colored tights. I get tons of compliments on them! If you wear them with the right clothes they don't look trashy at all.

    They are great! I have fishnet stockings in many colors from pink to black! Be happy & comfortable with whatever you wear! Fishnet stockings used to imply sth sexy but trushy ... too predictable. One can be sexy without them & look smart in them!

    Hmm 5 years ago, cute. Now, tacky. I say save 'em for the bedroom. I don't think they workable this season.

    i tend to find them seductive on the verge of trashy. frankly i would not consider wearing them, they're too reminiscent of a certain type of women

    cute with anything flat. but wit heels, u have to check with the hemline length. short hemlines look tacky. but knee length and beyond they look alright.
