October 24th - It was on this day in history in 1901 that the first woman, Anne Taylor, went over Niagara Falls in a barrel. I place her up there with the first skydiver. There is no way I’d ever do anything like this…unless I had go-go-gadget wings. But since I’m not meant to fly, I’ll keep my feet firmly planted on the ground. If you’re the adventurous type that loves gut-wrenching activities like skydiving, rock climbing and more, then make your way over to Sierra Trading Post for the right safety gear.

1939 - Nylon Stockings Go on Sale for First Time - What was worn before nylon stockings? I hope it wasn’t those wool stockings! My mother used to make me wear wool stockings in the winter when I wore a dress - they itched like crazy! I remember the awful feeling of having hundreds of bugs crawling and biting my legs. It was impossible to sit still! As a young girl, I swore that I’d never make my children wear wool stockings…EVER! Well, now that that repressed memory has been dealt with, let’s talk about nylons. I think they’re a sexy accessory that can add a little pop to an outfit. When you’re wearing something conservative, a sexy touch would be a black nylon with a single solid stripe on the back of the legs - very chic! For a full selection of control-top nylons, sexy hosiery and more, head over to Bare Necessities. And redeem exclusive Bare Necessities coupons for 10% off selected brands!
