Livin' in Leggings


  The purpose of this post is another review, which I love!!!!! I've recently joined a great group of plus-sized bloggers, Ahead of the Curve Blog Hop, who are going to be blogging monthly on the same topic but different points of view. Cool, right?  This month is "Legging Like Things", yahoo!!  The truth about leggings, I definitely have a love/hate relationship with leggings.  I have about 10 pairs and I don't wear them as often as I could.  To be brutally honest, until recently sometime last year I felt I couldn't pull off leggings, I was afraid it accentuated all the problem spots and just made things worse.  Out of the many pairs I have a few stand out, so I thought I would take a picture in my favorite pair but list a couple others that I have and love.  Coming in at a close second, believe it or not, are a brand called Massini that you get at Meijer, they usually run about $10.00 and are comfy.  Another brand I have to mention is Old Navy, these don't last as long, kind of loses the stretch but still pretty efficient. 

            Last but not least, my favorite, the Lane Bryant Control Top Leggings.  I love these they make me feel amazing but still comfortable while still having control.  Honestly, Lane Bryant make these in more colors and variations.  I currently own these in black and a deep wine color but I'd take a few more pairs for sure.  The current ones I am wearing I've had about two years and still look and feel brand new for sure, there is no visible wear and these still fit close to the body.  These run around $28.00 but I've always bought them on sale and with coupons.
