Ashamed to admit that even though I'm a Linux nerd and use it everywhere (only non-Linux PC I own is a 486 for DOS games) I admittedly don't own even a single pair of thigh highs or a skirt. I'd like to get some but not sure where is the best place to get them. Any advice?

A popular site for socks/thigh highs is sockdreams.com

I'm guessing you ran out of bubblegum then

i have owned several pairs, i wear them regularly, and they have been really good quality so far, some lasting more than a year of semi regular use, the ones i got from other places fell apart within weeks.

This shop looks good, but unfortinally it does not ship to my country. Are there any alternatives for ukraine?

Those look good, any good recommendations for a skirt? Brands? Places to get it?

If you have thrift stores nearby, they're great for skirts

I've already checked in my area and they don't any in the styles I'm looking for (at least not in my size) ☹️.

if you want perfect fit, think about getting tailored socks made to fit
