Stockingirl Couture Leg Wear Shows Their Trendsetting Ways for the Fall ?05 Fashion Season
Leg wear is walking onto the scene everywhere: beneath boho skirts, stuffed in furry boots, peaking out of snake-skin stilettos, or paired with woolen legwarmers. Since there is undoubtedly a burgeoning demand for hosiery in a number of creative style directions, Stockingirl plans to inundate the market with a flurry of fashionable designs for the 2005-2006 season. Because of Stockingirl's close relationship with top stylists and designers, the company will be introducing a number of authentic designer prints and patterns that will be featured on the runways for Heatherette, Baby Phat, Nicole Romano, Tamsen, Moschino, and Just Cavalli.
"Hosiery is not just looked at as a fantasy item or accessory any longer.
Young girls and women are learning to see fashion leg wear not only as a highly wearable item, but an additional must-have apparel item to wear with their skirts, heels, and boots," says Edward Miccinati, design director for the line.The six-year old NYC-based leg wear company will be emphasizing styles that have been missing from the market for a long time: authentic vintage laces, pointelles, leggings, luxurious textured and cabled wool-blend tights, and sophisticated new variations on fishnet, just to name a few.????Prints & ColorsThis season Stockingirl will come on strong by continuing its popular printed leg wear collections.
"We have only begun to show our creativity when it comes to the print market," remarks Miccinati.
Stockingirl will carry over traditional styles, such as the well-received zebra, cheetah and tiger prints, but will be exploring updated re-colored animal print looks in varying patterns for 2005.
Snake and reptilian prints have shown to be a popular fashion statement this season on and off the runways.
Stockingirl had been the leader in presenting this look in leg wear since Fall 2005 after having released a number of rattlesnake, diamondback, anaconda, and dragon prints in a myriad of styles and colors.
"Our reptile prints will be an integral interest this season.
We're offering them in opaque tights, opaque leggings, sheer-to-waist pantyhose, sheer thigh highs, and on fishnet," Miccinati continued, "The reptile printed fishnet has been surprisingly successful."Regal baroque and floral patterns will also continue to be signature Stockingirl leg wear styles, venturing into both bright and subtlety soft color palettes.
Patterning this upcoming season will in general be more feminine, more vivid, more intense, and more creative when it comes to overlaying and juxtaposing disparate motifs: Paisley will be embossed over delicate floral and dotted and striped with stunning color mixes, chic phrases will be imprinted on a collage of cultural symbols and colorful swatches. The embracing of rich colors, ethnic-inspired prints, ornate design and vivid washes will be the newest stylistic approach this upcoming season.Stockingirl continually proves that any color is the new black when in comes to leg wear.
Though the company's color palette is already extensive, offering 26 colors in key styles, there will be a number of new colors making their way into their hosiery line, including: plum, sea foam, clover, and differing shades of turquoise.Stockingirl SocksStockinGirl is now venturing into the sock market.
"This is relatively uncharted territory for our company," Miccinati states, "but there has been some interest and demand on our end so we've decided to test that route."
The company is now featuring their famous prints on trouser and ankle socks, both sheer and opaque.
They will also be featuring rich, luxurious socks in alpaca and angora blends.Plus Size DivisionThe company will also continue to expand their plus size and maternity division to include Lycra 3D pantyhose, in 15, 20, and 40 denier in sizes up to 4X. Stockingirl believes that the plus size customer should have the prettiest styles and therefore makes all of their beautiful stockings, thigh highs and printed hosiery in these sizes. New HiresTo help with their growing market interest, StockinGirl has expanded sales representation within the United States.
El Dever, Principle of El Dever Associates who currently handles major accounts and new businesses for Stockingirl, has added the responsibility for managing key territories. Serena Swanke from Chicago has also joined the Stockingirl Team after having been appointed Sales Representative for the Midwest and Texas..

Storing Holiday Decorations January Through November
(ContentDesk) December 20, 2005 -- Holiday ornaments and decorations are typically put away for 11 months of the year.
During that time extra precautions are needed to ensure that what you put away will reappear intact year-after-year.
Offering the only acid-free solution has been Ultimate Christmas Storage secret to success for over 10 years. Protecting holiday collectibles and heirlooms from discoloration, tarnish and breakage (heart breaking!) may be easier with some tips from Steve Stanton, a storage design expert and president of Ultimate Christmas Storage:?Choose boxes with acid-free heavy-duty chipboard construction throughout.

Fashion, Is It Still Fashionable?
What's the skinny on fashion these days?
And anyway, what really is fashion? Is it what happens to be in style this season?
Is it the short skirts, the hip boots, or the funny little hats?
Let's take off the fake, and look at what fashion really means to most people.
Fashion is as judgmental as our list of desired characteristics in a mate.
What one person purports to be the most necessary piece in the wardrobe, might not be deemed worthy for a foot rug by another.
Fashion is one of the most fickle friends a girl (or guy) can have.
It comes, it goes, sometimes we fit, and sometimes we just want to hide.
Fashion, as defined by Webster's dictionary, is "the popular or up-to-date way of dressing, speaking or behaving".
Well, if that's the case, there are times I want no part of fashion.
I believe fashion goes much deeper than that simple statement.
I think fashion encompasses more of...
