Golfs and all about them

Fleeting fashion in just a few decades has turned boring school knee socks into one of the most trendy wardrobe items of a modern girl. Golfs are able to decorate the legs of any girl, making them more elegant, slimmer and more attractive. They are worn by both young girls and adult women, looking equally good at the same time.

Stylish and practical stockings are half-stockings that, covering the lower part of the legs, reach either up to the knee or above. They are made from completely different materials: knitwear, cotton, wool, etc. They look different, primarily due to the material of manufacture.

Initially, knee socks were part of a particular style or uniform (for example, they were worn by the military, schoolchildren, scouts or sailors). Also, knee-highs complemented the traditional Scottish costume with a kilt. Around the 60s and 70s, knee socks gained popularity among women, who began to actively combine them with dresses and skirts. A few seasons ago, knee-highs entered the trend again and now more and more often flash in fashionable images.

Many people still confuse knee-highs and leggings.Let's see what is the difference between them. Golfs, as already mentioned, are almost stockings, only shortened. Their upper edge is not closed by clothes.

But leggings are elongated socks without feet. They cover part of the leg from the ankle to the knee. Initially, leggings were worn over shoes as overhead tops. They were made of dense material or leather, which was later replaced with cloth.

The variety of golfs makes fashionistas a little confused when faced with their choice. After all, models and styles of golf can vary greatly among themselves.

Slimming stockings are popular among women. Like shapewear, they are primarily aimed at helping curvy women look slimmer.

Graceful fishnet stockings were initially popular only among cabaret dancers, who, unlike other ladies, boldly showed them to others.

Many girls faced the problem of slipping golf at the wrong time. This accessory can gather into folds, sliding off the hips or calves during movements. In order not to face such a problem, choose knee-highs with silicone rubber. She, adjacent to the naked body, is attached to the skin.

Along with spectacular and sexy stockings, golfs of this type are also popular among young girls. Many beauties take such an accessory into service. Translucent stockings with a graceful openwork top look very sexy on a slender female body, especially in combination with revealing underwear.

As already mentioned, stockings without feet are called leggings. This accessory looks good in everyday style.

Classic school golfs also look attractive. Unlike the models common in Soviet schools, modern college-style knee-highs look very trendy and interesting. Geometric prints and clear textures are another way to make your look brighter and more interesting.

Since knee socks were originally part of a sports uniform, now they also often become an interesting addition to the corresponding style.

Golfs of this type support the vessels from the outside so that they do not stretch. Normalization of vascular tone helps to automatically restore blood flow, and therefore relieve swelling and pain in the legs.

The problem of swelling of the legs is very relevant during pregnancy. That is why many doctors recommend that girls wear anti-embolic stockings in preparation for motherhood.

All golfs, as you probably noticed, are divided into high (knee socks or over the knee boots), medium length and short.

"Treads", that is, socks longer than the knee visually lengthen the legs. Models of bright colors will look advantageous, especially on girls of short stature. An absolutely universal option is knee-highs in dark shades that visually slim the legs. If you don’t need this and you consider your legs, on the contrary, to be too skinny, choose light-colored stockings that will add volume to the calves. It is not recommended to wear knee-highs for girls with full hips, since this style makes them very fat.

But the owners of beautiful legs can afford any style of stockings. Including short ones. Such models or stockings of medium length look spectacular, emphasizing neat knees.

The quality and appearance of golfs determines what material was used in their manufacture. Thicker fabrics look voluminous and are suitable for the cold season. Thin socks can be worn in summer.

When choosing the colors of your stockings, remember that bright colors can make your legs appear shorter, while darker shades are more practical.

Bright knee-highs with prints and patterns will bring cheerfulness to your look. Just remember that such stockings in themselves attract a lot of attention, so the outfit chosen for them should be in soothing colors.
