I learned from the manager of Wolford in Toronto that Beyonce wears Neon 40 pantyhose in Gobi shade. “It’s her colour!” – the lady said. Looking at these images, you can see that it works great with her outfit.

What is Customer Service Like at Fogal Hosiery in Vancouver?
Yesterday was a bit of a frustrating experience for me. You see, I never actually owned a pair of Fogal hosiery. I decided to send my guy to buy me some from the local Fogal boutique that recently opened in Vancouver. He went there, but returned empty-handed.
What happened?
“I didn’t get any customer service”, he said. Turned out that when he came to the store, there was only one person working (the manager) and she was talking to a female customer. He picked out something that he liked from the sample display and asked the manager three times for that specific item in size Medium. All that needed to be done was to run the purchase through the cash register, that’s it! After being in that store for some time (15 minutes according to his estimation), he walked out.
I was surprised, last time I was there I got really good service. So I picked up the phone and called up the boutique. The explanation I got was that the staff is trained to stay with the customer that they started working with until the end. She explained that the other customer seemed to be very needy and required assistance. That’s why the manager could not interrupt her conversation with the other customer and go to the cash register to process a sale. I agree to an extent here, but if you are the only staff in the store, sometimes you need to multi-task. She was polite and of course she apoligized, but there was no offer extended to compensate for that unfortunate experience.
I wonder if his gender made any difference. Could it be different if it would be a woman coming in to make a purchase? I find that sometimes in high end stores staff only watch out for their “target market”. They may not even greet a customer if for some reason they don’t think that this person is going to buy much because of their youth or simple clothing. I really hope that’s not the case since my first experience with Fogal was quite positive.
I am sad that it didn’t work out. Maybe some day I’ll order it online or buy it in Toronto’s store. This time, instead of Fogal, I went to the Wolford boutique that is literally across the corner from them and purchased another pair of Neon 40 in Cosmetic shade (skin tone). You see, my guy was too upset to go back to the Fogal store.
I am still open-minded about the Fogal brand and I judge people favourable. At least for now I prefer to think that it was simply inexperience of the staff person to multi-task while working alone with multiple clients.
Note Added Later: I heard from some of my fans that they went to Fogal and got good customer service. So maybe it was just a day of bad luck. I would also like to say that I had AMAZING customer service at Fogal in Toronto. What is customer service like at Fogal for you? Would love to hear.

Trying on dark grey Wolford Pantyhose – Neon 40
These pantyhose were sent to me by my Canadian fan. They are shiny, 40 denier, and very resistant. Glorious Wolford Neon 40!
Here are some photos of me posing in them on the bed and at the grocery store. Yes, that’s how I go grocery shopping! Even for simple daily chores I prefer to look at least semi-decent. In fact, at that grocery store I ran into probably at least 10 people from work, so I don’t want to look bad if that happens.
Thank you for sending them to me, my Canadian friend, they are very special! This memory will stay with me forever of how I tried Wolford Neon 40 pantyhose.
Update at a later date: I traveled with this pantyhose all over the world and let another model try it – she loved it!

Trying on Wolford Pantyhose – Neon 40 in Gobi Shade
This was my first pair of Wolford Neon 40 pantyhose! 40 denier, shiny, Gobi shade. I got it as a present from another Canadian pantyhose lover along with another pair in charcoal that I haven’t tried yet.
I was filled with anticipation to try it. Such pantyhose costs a lot of money and it has never been in my price range to actually go ahead and buy. A lot of people told me that it feels great and they were right.
As I was putting on that Neon 40 pantyhose, I even stopped half way just to pet it and to feel how smooth they were. The fabric is really silky, elastic, and resistant to damage.
Thank you to my Canadian friend for sending it! It is a gift of excitement, anticipation, thrill, and of course two great pairs of pantyhose that came with it.
