    Default Garter Belt Questions

    Ok, I bought the rhinestone garter belt from victoria secret and it takes me like 20 minutes just to get the little clips to stay on and then they come undone really really easily . Am I supposed to attach the clips to the sticky rubber part(you know at the top that keeps them on) of the thigh highs? If so then either my thigh highs are not good or the clips for the garter belt SUCKS. Cuz they will not stay on for anything! Tips?? Any tricks or advice would be MUCH appreciated

    Sounds like a hassle I would just forget about. I lack the patience for that shit. But that's me.

    The thigh-highs you're talking about are meant to stay up on their own- that's why they have the "sticky" stuff on them- and that's why they're being a pain in the ass. You'll have better luck using ones that are meant to go with a garter set- ask about them at Vicky's, they have some real sexy ones- they're just sheer at the top, no sticky to get in your way.

    You should get used to it, make sure when you put the clips on, they have enough material and are down tight. I think I know the garter you're talking about- was really pretty but what do you wear with it?

    The stockings with the sticky stuff are meant to stay up on their own without a garter belt. They are too thick at the top for garter clips. Get some regular stockings that are meant to go with a garter belt and you should be fine.

    She's talking about the "garter" that goes around your waist and keeps your stockings up. But I thought she meant the money garters, too, when I first clicked on the thread.

    What you're wearing is thigh highs, with the elastic that keeps them up...its too thick for the garter snaps to hold onto...go to Victorias and looks for real stockings...they have no elastic or sticky material...its just silky material top to bottom

    When you go in, just ask for stockings...if you ask for thigh highs, they'll send your ight to the sticky top junk that doesn't work. True stockings are the silky ones...pantyhose are the ones with the full seat that often get called stockings lol

    I find I have a hard time clipping in the appropriate stockings, too. I'm just too damn clumsy! I buy those cheap Leg Avenue fence net thigh highs, cut the top band to about a quarter inch, and viola! Mia-easy stockings!

    Oh, and a tip for putting them on:

    Lay out your gater belt, and clip on the two back clips to the backs of your stockings, then put them on. I do this especially when I buy the stockings with the line down the back, so they are even. Makes it a bit easier.

    I have problems with stockings and a garter belt anyway, even with the appropriate type of stockings. I can just never get the little clips to stay! I don't trust them; they almost always end up coming off somehow. Maybe I should use them only in the bedroom...

    Yes, they are very sexy, but God they are a pain in the ass lol. I think it depends on the stockings and the garter belt you are using, gotta get a good combo I guess. But I remember this girl I worked with a while back who always used garter belts with the clips to her stockings, and she danced the night away and they never came off! I didn't wear stockings at the time(this was when I'd just started dancing) and I never bothered to ask her trick because I didn't realize they were so difficult. Grrrr... Now i wish I could ask her lol

    Good tip! I was going to start a thread about the same subject because I have a cincher with garters and I have to wear stockings with them! I get them on fine with the thigh highs with the rubber inside but it just takes a while to make sure they're on right!!! Ugh! I hope I just get used to it so I dont take forever getting ready....

    One more tip for either the regular stockings or the thigh highs with rubber... Make sure you clip it straight.... The bottom has to be completely straight, sometimes its lopsided and it just pulls right back out of the clip and thats why they fly off when you bend over and stuff...

    just my 2 cents!

    ~kisses~
    If you love something let it go, If it comes back to you....

    Take it out back and bury it!

    Tell Kylie how you like it...

    Just a bit of advice... I always wear a garter and stockings to work, makes me feel sexy. But you have to have the ones with the plastic if you are going to dance with the garter off, as the others will slide down your legs. just do the clip up under the plastic part if you can, or tuck the clip under the stocking if you are going to take them off and on frequently.

    I just want to clear something up, for the youngins. Stockings and thigh highs are two different things. Thigh highs stay up on their own, stockings do not, and require a garter belt.
    I actually do wear those sticky sided thigh highs with garter belts. True, it's a pain to get them hooked, but it's better than wearing droopy stockings. I just hook them in between the sticky strips and they stay on all night.

    Wouldn't the rhinestones catch on your stocking and tear them?

    I love wearing thigh his/stockings on stage, but at $12 a pop and a new run every night, they're just too darn expensive. Thank god for fishnets.
