Tea length legs?

[screwdelicacy]

I'm wearing a tea length (actually, a bit shorter) dress for the wedding. I have a VERY bold Obama tattoo on my right calf - and my family seems to think I'm going to be covering it up with some sort of stocking/pantyhose. However, it won't cover at all if I wear nude colored pantyhose (which is fine with me, the point of this post is NOT about

Have you ever tried a spray tan? I have bad spider veins on my legs and the tan dulls the colour to the point you cant see them any more but doesn't cover my tattoos, which are much darker. I am uber pale to start with though (practically glow in the dark) and I suppose it depends how dark your veins are.

Thats my thought anyway, don't know if its helpful at all!

Thank you! And I'm very glow in the dark as well. But I love it that way. I think i'll give it a shot, assuming they don't have to go too dark.

go get a spray tan ahead of time and see what the results are, if you don't like it, don't do it for the wedding :)

also, i've seen (but never tried) the sally hanson stockings in a can stuff....it's less than $10 at the drug store, try playing with that?

I only ever go a couple of shades darker. I tried one of those booth ones once and even their 'light' come out too dark for me, but when you go to a salon they can adjust the colour and how much they put on. Do you get Sally Hanson airbrush cans in the US? They have a really light shade that I use and its great, if you don't mind DIY tanning.

I'm with you, I like being pale. I just look weird being all bronzed. Though living in Australia means 9 months out of the year I have to bathe in 30+ or I just fry...

The airbrush cans are sold in Walgreens and sometimes CVS in the US
