OK ladies, what’s the view on wearing sheer tights (pantyhose) with open toed boots or sandals?
Yes, or a fashion faux-pas?

My understanding of the rule is not nylons with open toes, but what are rules if not meant to be broken. If we followed the "rules", most of us would be dressed in drab right now.
I accidentally bought a few open toe tights from a charity shop a few months back, about 5 pairs. I should recirculate them really. I would never show such in public and in private (or under cover) I actually love the reinforced toe look.
@joannat Many brands make toeless tights - just pantyhose with openings for your toes. I use these in the summer with shorts or skirts (all my heels are open toed).

You can find them on Amazon easily enough. 🙂
That said, I wear stockings with my sandals too. I like the way it looks, so...

I’m a big fan of stockings and open toe heels. I always wear panty hose and mostly open toe, stirrup (goes around bottom of foot) or even ones more like leggings that have open feet. I love the open toe as I do add colored toe nails 💅🏽
in my case I’ve used opaque stockings with open toe but usually match the color. Useful for those chilly evenings …
but in essence I’ve seen all kinds of ways ladies wear stockings/heels so I would go for what seems pretty for you.💕
I have worn sandal foot hose with open toe shoes before in the winter but prefer painted toenails and no hose.
I have done on occasions as my legs aren't as cute as they used to be.
I had considered this question myself; figured it was a "no". In fact, this is part of the reason I'm thinking Kendra will be taking the summer off. Her alter ego has some cool summer clothes, and Kendra's physique doesn't lend itself to skimpy tops, bottoms, or shoes... so will be content with rocking Fall and Winter 😕
I must be a rule breaker as there not actually pantyhose I do wear tights with open toe heels
I fully understand it's considered a faux pas to wear pantyhose with open-toed shoes or sandals, but truth be told, that's kind of why I like it so much. There's a throwback feel to the '70s and '80s when it actually wasn't uncommon to see a woman's toes in tan or nude hose. A lot of my dressing is inspired by that time period. And frankly, I just feel more feminine when I'm wearing pantyhose and can see them on my feet.
I would have thought it as weird-looking as men wearing socks with sandals.
I'm another open toed pantyhose fan. I think my legs look their best with tan pantyhose so for my open toe sandals and heels I wear the open toe pantyhose and just love how it looks. Melodee's photos are my proof. It's not for me closed toe pantyhose and open toe shoes but if that's the look you like I think go for it.
That’s definitely a fashion no no in my book !!
I get that it is now frowned upon to wear nylons with open toes, but back in the day - i.e. before wearing nylons in general became passé - surely, it would have been the norm?
Personally, I have only a couple of pairs of open-toed shoes, but there's no way I'll not wear tights with them, not least because I hate the feel of shoes on bare feet (🤔!), and I'm not a fan of bare legs.
In my defence I will say that I will only wear sheer or the very merest shadow-toed hosiery with open toes - I mean, what's the point of having painted toes and not showing them off when the opportunity arises? 🙂
open toe panty hose are the only kind i where. designer panty hose are great when its cold but you still want to show your painted nails. i also love wearing them with short shorts. i'm not a panty hose girl but open toes are the way to go.
