This is how I am getting my legs ready for Summer

Twice in the last month I have been compared to Kate Middleton. Cue discreet royal curtsey and a very gracious thank you .  But not so fast because I wasn’t likened to Kate for my poise or my dress sense , my resemblance to her waif like body  (luckily because there is no resemblance)  it also wasn’t because I live in a Castle with a prince (because I don’t) and it wasn’t even the hairstyle. Think lower. Much lower. It was my legs, and no not because my legs look anything like Kate’s rather it was because we both wear nude stockings.

Now excuse me for a second while I admit that I didn’t believe this was a problem. I have always worn nude stockings. In fact I think Kate may have taken the idea from ME. I just thought that was what all women do in Summer when they haven’t bothered to remove their hair for so long it’s like they are wearing leg warmers anyway.  The stockings disguise the hair and give you instant tan. Winner!

Or not. Let me tell you it may be fine and dandy for Kate to waltz around in stockings in England where heat is not the predominant weather pattern but here in Australia, it’s harder. I am cool to wear stockings to work (although Mia did guffaw at the idea) but at the beach? At a picnic? Put it this way, it’s DAMN uncomfortable and your toes look funny.

So now that Summer is calling my legs out of my jeans and into the light how do I get them ready to show themselves?

I am not one of those people that are comfortable with leg hair so let’s just deal with that first. I have no problem with people who choose to let it grow but me? I like a smooth leg.
