Last week was a biggy for Essex'ee Legs, it marked the arrival of our very own branded hosiery. We are over the moon with the quality of each and every item in our gorgeous range and are pleased to offer some extremely reasonably priced hosiery essentials. There is also a great selection of regular size fashion hosiery, plus size tights and control top tights in the Essexee Legs range.

Be sure to have a browse on the website, as there are some must haves, for every hosiery drawer, but today we are showing off our plus size Essexee Legs Open Toe Tights.


Essexee Legs Open Toe Tights Large-XXL

At last, toeless tights for plus size ladies from our own brand. Fuller figure ladies can achieve a flawlessly elegant, bare legged look with our 10 denier no toe plus size tights. The open toe means that you can show off your pedicure in your favourite peep toe shoes, and sandals.

As the summer season of warm weather, weddings and flowing dresses arrives, the plus size toeless tights have arrived just in the nick of time! Choose from either an elegant Natural shade, to cover flaws and blemishes, or go for the Mink shade, for a sun kissed glow, minus the streaky fake tan.

NYFW Watch - Cat Deeley

Cat Deeley rocked up at the Lincoln Centre to attend the Monique Lhuillier NYFW show looking utterly gorgeous.

Her one shoulder lace top looked pretty and delicate, whilst her monochrome print skirt, spot tights and killer heels added a quirky edge that work fabulously together.

Cat had a whale of a time in the front row of the show and has induced major fashion envy in all of us at Essex'ee Legs...just look at those pins...and those shooooes!!!

Alexa Chung was taking a stroll in New York on the 4th of December looking as cool as ever in her teddy bear coat, opaques and ankle boots.

It's almost here! Plus size hosiery that's custom made to fit your curves!

Whilst attending a preview for the beautiful new designs from Jonathan Aston and Charnos (see the exclusive preview in our Shopped til' we dropped post), we were so excited to see and hear about the new Charnos XeLence range. The gorgeous XeLence range provides custom designed plus size hosiery with a supreme comfort fit, for women up to a size 32.

After carrying out extensive surveys, Charnos discovered that 70% of curvaceous ladies found 'XL' tights to be ill fitting on the legs, with an uncomfortable back panel, that is visible through clothes. 46% said that the waistband is 'like an elastic band leaving unsightly red marks', the sizing is confusing and fashion or patterned tights just do not fit. Sadly 51% said that they no longer attempt to wear hosiery because of a combination of these reasons.

With all of these factors in mind, rather than just making an existing product bigger, Charnos have completely changed the proportions and construction of their plus size tights to fit all sizes like a glove! The Charnos XeLence range currently offer black and natural sheer tights, opaque's, spot tights and knee highs. They have also promised that the range will hopefully continue to grow. Comfort, practicality and of course fashion, all prove to be a winning formula for this amazing fashion revelation! Here's the patented science behind the lines style and comfort-

The Charnos XeLence range will be available from Essex'ee Legs from mid November 2013. Please feel free to submit an enquiry on the website to be notified as soon as they arrive. Below is a list of what's on order and that all important size guide...

Shopped 'til we dropped! Jonathan Aston, Charnos, Levante new season!

Essex'ee Legs were invited along to view the new season styles from Jonathan Aston, Levante and Charnos. Dressed for the occasion in our heels and Jonathan Aston hosiery, off we trotted in the sunshine to the exclusive sneak peak in Cavendish Square, Oxford Street.

Inside was a treasure trove of gorgeous new prints and styles...

This made it very difficult to pick what we wanted to add to our growing, collection of hosiery. After much deliberation, over some delicious chocolate brownies, we finally made some decisions and began shopping!

We are now excitedly awaiting the arrival of a diverse range of funky print tights, unique fashion tights, delicate flower hold ups and over the knee tights, plus lace leggings, colour tights and more. The new collection will begin to arrive from December, with gorgeous new arrivals continuing through to March. Feast your eyes on some of the new designs...

Charnos have also designed a range of plus size tights and socks that we are very excited about. The new Xelence range is designed with both comfort and fashion in mind to flatter womens curves. The collection will be available in sizes 16 up to 32 and will be featured later in the blog, and available from our website as soon as we receive them!  

Keep your eyes peeled for all of our gorgeous new arrivals ladies! :)

For our outing I wore Office pointed suede courts, a daisy print tea dress from Asos and Jonathan Aston Opaque Back Seam Tights which have either a grey or red seam. Anne wore Jonathan Aston Back Seam and Heel Hold Ups and a poppy print tea dress from M&Co. Both available now at Essex'ee Legs.



Suspender Pantyhose and Carpe Diem!

The title proved to be the magic mix for mum! Carpe Diem just sums up Mum & Dads approach to life. Always taking the risk, moving onwards and upwards and making new adventures. The beginnings of mum’s online shop Essex’ee Legs was no different. It’s been inspiring to watch her tiny seed of an idea, flourish into an exciting online business that continues to grow. So, after a few years of dreaming and hankering after a little business to call her own Suspender Pantyhose is where it all began!!

Sparkly tights and fishnet stockings had been worn forever in show business, then in 2009 a new celeb trend emerged, 5 words - Lily Allen, mock suspender tights …

We were all hooked, Designers Gipsy, Pamela Mann and Leg Avenue all made their own unique versions of suspender hosiery…

Mock Suspender Tights,  Plus Size Suspender Tights
All available at Essex'ee Legs

The popularity of the mock suspender tights style triggered a flood of new and unique hosiery designs, that celebs wore everywhere. Fortunately Gipsy, Pamela Mann, Leg Avenue, and Jonathan Aston continue to make the gorgeous fashion tights accessible to us mere mortals too…

Fashion Tights

The love for this new abundance of different hosiery styles never died and Essex’ee Legs provides a wide range of fashion tights in amongst its beautiful collections.

With a new trend that seemed to be sticking around, mum recognised the potential for an online tights shop ranging from sizes 6-32, with international postage. Accessibility was important to her, as apart from the big flagship stores many of the high street collections were sparse, with few or none selling plus size tights. With the image of Lily wearing suspender pantyhose, providing that light bulb moment, and a certain TV show, set in our home town, providing inspiration for a catchy name for the website…

Aherm, reem?

Essex’ee Legs became reality and mum dived head first into her new adventure...

We are proud of you mum! xxx
