I absolutely love sexy stockings, perhaps matched with a sultry garter belt: they have the power to make me feel instantly sexy. My real obsession for rated-x hosiery makes me wear it almost everyday, to turn myself on or as a sexy surprise for my partner.
But I hate wearing heels or ballerinas to match my stockings: I'm a real disaster when it comes to walking in high heels, and I find that elegant flat shoes always cause painful blisters on my feet. So, I've become a pro to hide crotchless nylons and fishnet hold-ups under jeans or sweatpants, to wear them without having to give up my beloved sneakers!
That's why, when I came across the footless Wetlook Stockings from the brand Noir Handmade, I was excited to try them: finally I will be able to wear incredibly sexy stockings as if they were my usual leggings, which means they'll look great with my sneakers!
I started to imagine in my mind lots and lots of 'fetish-casual' looks I would be able to create with them, until one day I luckily got a press sample of those amazing stockings from Orion!
The packaging
The parcel was discreet and anonymous as usual: the waybill said nothing about the sexy content. Once I opened the plain brown box, I found a luxurious black cardboard packaging, with clear pictures of my dream footless stockings worn by a model, a detailed description of the item, and suggested matching lingerie pieces from the same brand.
Inside the external cardboard packaging I found a black high-end gift box, very similar to the ones I usually find in Cottelli Collection boxed lingerie: this means that the item is a present ready to give, without the need for wrapping paper or ribbons. Thumbs up for Noir Handmade!
When opening the gift box, my item was wrapped in a beautiful white paper, with the logo of the brand printed in black: it made me feel as if I was unboxing a jewel.
The product
When I first saw the stockings inside the box, I was immediately impressed by the beauty of the matte wet-look material. The lace band at the top does not only look incredibly beautiful, but it also has two silicone stripes inside, to prevent the stockings from slipping off.
The back of the open foot stockings has a seam that reminds me of retro back-seamed nylons: I found it very sexy!
Trying the stockings on
I had been advised by Sandra, the friendly press manager at Orion who works as hard as a Santa helper to send me all those wonderful products to review, to get a size L instead of the M I usually wear: I discovered soon she was right!
Those leg gauntlets looked bigger than average stockings when I first unboxed them, but the truth is that they fit quite snug on me.
The first time I tried them on, I found it pretty difficult to wear them: despite the wet look material being very stretchy, it hasn't been easy to make such tight leg gauntlets slip over my still-wet-from-the-shower thighs!
Anyway, after a couple times wearing my new stockings, I eventually got my hand at putting them on quickly and without problems. I tried to make them slide on better with a dab of silicone-based lubricant as I would do with a latex garment, but I didn't find this home remedy effective since the internal of the wet-look hold ups is made from regular cloth. Instead, a little practice went a long way!
Still, during one of my hurried mornings, I managed to tear two or three stitches from the hem on the bottom of one of the stockings. Nothing that my very limited sewing abilities can't fix!
Anyway, I can see that Orion provides a separate size chart for all items from Noir Handmade: seems that they fit a little on the smaller side in comparison with Cottelli Collection's ones. That's why Sandra advised me to get a bigger size!
Those wet look stockings look absolutely gorgeous on me: the shiny material looks exactly like latex or PVC when worn, but with a matte finish I find very classy.
The back seam and the lacy band at the top add a touch of classic, elegant sexiness.
The look
The material feels way more breathable than latex or PVC: I never found my legs sweaty under those stockings and, despite their snug fit, they're very comfortable, even for an extended wearing time.
I could definitely have fun creating hundreds of the 'casual fetish' looks I was craving for!
I dusted off a pair of black summer booties I had never worn before: they looked great with the Noir Handmade Wet Look Stockings. I just added my favourite T-shirt dress, and I
was ready to go!
I also wore them with my Converse All-Star inspired canvas sneakers plus a skater skirt and T-shirt, or a casual dress. Those leg gauntlets are incredibly versatile, and once matched with other casual garments, they look just like leather or wet-look leggings.
During my sexy alone-time with my partner, I love to match the Noir Handmade stockings with my wet-look Cottelli Collection Bondage Crotchless Strap Bikini Set: the two lingerie pieces from different brands look like they're designed to be worn together, and I feel like a sex bomb!
Those stockings also look perfect with black lacy lingerie, or just a pair of nipple pasties and a crotchless thong.
In summary
The quality of the Noir Handmade Wetlook Stockings, their gorgeous look that makes me feel so sexy, and the comfort of their material on the skin, definitely convinced me: I would certainly buy them again, perhaps in different styles if they will be available at Orion.
I would advise to buy them in a bigger size than you actually wear: I usually get my lingerie in size M, and those gauntlets in L are still very snug on me.
They cost 59.95€ at Orion's official shop: I know that the price is quite high, but I guarantee that they're worth every penny!
You can buy them from Orion here.
I got the Noir Handmade wet-look stockings free of charge from Orion in exchange for my honest review. Thanks a lot Orion, for letting me collaborate with your company. Unaffiliated post.
