Don't want to get too off topic here. Not sure if this was more of a late 80s/90s thing, or cultural thing, but she would wear hose with jeans in her early 20s. She would wear dress boots usually with her jeans and I remember her saying once,it was easier wearing hose as it took care of not having to wear dress socks and underwear. Guess it worked for her. Once in a while got to snap a pic, from late-90s, after work one day...............
