Giveaway ~ Taking the Slow Silk Road

Hanes® approached me late this summer with an offer I simply couldn’t refuse. They sent a pair of Hanes® SilkReflections for me to try, and three pairs to giveaway to you, dear readers! But wait for it. Here was my experience first.

I opted to wear them during yet another trip to the office supplies store for my kids the first week of school in mid-September. It was the eighth trip in five days and I was feeling a little out of control, if you know what I mean. The panythose’s silky run resistant sheerness was, well, sheer pleasure as the control top allowed me to slide neatly into a skirt I wasn’t sure would fit (it was a great summer after all – a five-week sabbatical I’ve blogged about ad naseum). Thanks to Hanes®, the skirt fit just fine.

I was going to wear these shoes, but only did for the picture. After all, a power of slow mom has her limits (and I wore them for a role as a mean pimp recently on a cop show so I needed to give them a rest). I chose a smaller heel to dash (slowly) to the store for the sake of my children’s education.

I swear the store clerk winked at me. He never does that. It must have been all that silky leg I showed.

So here’s how to enter for your pair of Control Top Sheer Toe silky sheer hosery (a $10 value!):

Leave a comment telling me one thing you’ve done to slow it down a notch this week, month, season. I have three pairs to give away so let’s hope we get lots of input! Then I’ll draw three names from the hat, alert you, mail them, and feel really good about myself for passing on the sheer joy.

So let’s do this. Shall we? 🙂

    I took time out of my super busy schedule to celebrate National Coffee Day by treating a friend to coffee and scones. We had a wonderful and long overdue visit by sharing time together.

    I decided to lounge around as it was too hot to do anything! I had shorts on but I still wore my ultra sheer pantyhose out in the sun which was a great sun block! Had some sun tea and read a book. A very relaxing day!

      Wow! Pantyhose in the heat? I had to wait until the cool fall temps before wearing them again. Good for you!

    I love that I often walk a little slower when wearing great hoisery and shoes…Much of life you run from sun up to sundown…and I find that when I slow down, even just a little, life can be a bit more enjoyable…one smile at a time !

      That is so true. One does feel elegant when dressed to the nines!

    I had the neighbor gals over for tea, and we sat and told our favorite stories from this Summer.

    I didn’t slow down at all, so take me out of the running. But, damn girl, you got some legs. I just had to comment on THAT. 🙂
