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?

Oh Thanks Marianz!

There was another thread about bra's earlier in the week. I've got a lot of shopping to do. ;)

And, just incase you thought you could sneak in and we wouldn't notice :p

Welcome to the forum :clap:clap

Absolutely nowt!

You know what - I think we should start a campaign to call tights tights and yoghurt yoghurt (with an o sound as in orange!)


Drives me insane - both of them!
