The Best Sheer Stocking Socks You Can Buy on Amazon

Of course, they say "Prada" on the side, which adds both sophistication and zeros to the price tag. But still, I couldn't stomach spending $100 on the see-through stocking socks I used to basically destroy in my youth. Not to mention: My mom would be so pissed.

I moved on to indulge in other over-the-top runway trends, like padded velvet headbands (also Prada inspired), flower-shaped hair barrettes, and nail polish in every color of the rainbow—all of which I could easily find affordable dupes for. And I almost forgot about my brief infatuation with black stockings until the following Fashion Week.

As soon as I saw that collection, I realized I couldn't wait any longer. It was time to buy stockings.

Instead of trying to track down the exact pair from the runway, I started my search for the hosiery of my dreams on Amazon. And there they were: the very type of sheer black socks I had been planning outfits around in my head, for just $13.99. And because this is Amazon, they came in a pack of 12.
