    Default Women's Business Attire Question

    Can someone please tell me what they call pantyhose/stockings/nylons in NZ? Just the clear/skintone :cool things you wear with a suit! And, how much do they cost? Don't know if I need to pack a bunch of them or not, as there may be sticker shock on them! Thanks!!

    Personally, the danged things feel like they are strangling me every morning, and talk about an expense that gets on my nerves, this one does! Can't quite sing "I enjoy being a girl" when it comes to them! :cool

    memory flickered the other day...

    when i lived in nz (11 yrs ago) i wanted to buy a legal folder sized louis vuitton bag for work. it was really plain and perfect, cost 2/3 of anywhere else. i hesitated and it was lost (discontinued).

    is high-end stuff still cheaper than elsewhere?
