The Best Leggings



October 26, 2022

You girls know my true love for leggings, IYKYK. I often get asked what my favorites are for everyday wear, for fall, for spring, for fancy casual looks, for mom style…basically for all the styles!

Wellllll, October 18th was National Leggings Day and I sent out a newsletter talking all about my favorite leggings. I shared my most worn brands and different fun ways to style leggings. I wanted to also post all of that info here on the blog so that you can read all about one of my absolute favorite pieces of clothing ever lol!

Outfit Share Week!

|SHOP THE LOOK|

Hey Ladies! Back at it again with my girl Anna and we are styling outfits today (Two body Types and the same outfit!) We used to do these last year, took a little break but now we are back! 🙂

We love doing these as I think we can all agree that not all bodies are the same, and its fun to see how an item will look on not just me and my size but another body type as well!

SIZES: If you are new to our try ons, Anna is a Size Small in everything including leggings and I am a size Large in everything but the Spanx Legggings which I am wearing an XL in. 🙂

Don’t forget you can use my code at SPANX: Through my link its TMISXSPANX for free shipping and 10% off!

The Best Leggings Styles your Closet Needs



October 17, 2020

Hey Girls! We have a huge post today and Its all about the legging! I personally think we have been in legging season for a while– but typically we call that fall and winter LOL– Lots of requests for my Favorites for different occasions so I thought I would stop and put them all together for you!

This post is really to share what I wear the most, why and the details of each pair so if you are in the market for another pair this might help you too! Check out Instagram Stories for the full try on but I will do my best to include a full description here as well as a DUPE (if they are $$) the best I possibly can! These are listed out in no particular order, tried to be as unbiased as possible and just deliver facts on this one — there are a total of 7 pair with individual descriptions! 😉

Hope this post is helpful for you and if you find that someone you know might like it too, please feel free to share it! 😉

First pair of legging is the Wunder Under High Rise Full on Luon Legging, High waisted, 7/8 and a medium compression all the way through the legging. I wear this MOST often from boots and sweater to Athleisure OOTD these are made for movement, do not budge, excellent quality (these are 3 years old-ish and look brand new). They do attract pet hair at times and run about $98.

Dupe Option is here, runs TTS and under $45 🙂

Sizing: I wear an 8 this is my normal leggings size at Lululemon I wear a size 10/12 denim

Here are the Spanx “Look at me Now” Seamless legging– 7/8 length and high waisted. EXCELLENT shapewear, stays put, super black great for athleisure to sweaters and boots. This is a slightly thicker material, so if its above 70- I personally would not wear. This is a more affordable SPANX at around $68, if you want to see what all the fuss is about on the brand, this might be a good one to pick!

Similar seamless dupe options are linked here and here

Size: XL Sized up one from my typical Size Large.

Here are the SPANX Faux leather legging great again for all the looks from sweaters and boots to athleisure. SPANX is really about the shapewear they really do keep you lifted, supported and feeling confident all day. These are super black, full length and high waisted. Around $98. Goes on sale a couple times a year, Black Friday and the Nordstrom Sale. FYI if you have an need styling ideas, I have a post here.

Dupe Options: Nothing I know of is going to give you the same shapewear feeling but if you are going for the look: A great a dupe is here.

Sizing: I buy a Large and XL– Depends on the day but feel most comfortable in the XL which is one size up from my normal size large.

This the Aerie Offline Real Me Legging– High waisted 7/8 length I wear for athleisure and lounge outfits. Cotton style material, not made for tons of movement, no shaping technology but comfortable to wear in the evenings. If you are looking for a good basic legging I wear these a lot for lounge because they aren’t compressive. Super black and run under $50!

Size: I wear my typical Size Large

The Ever popular Lululemon Align Legging everyone loves these because they are buttery soft, truly unmatched! High waisted, 7/8 length- comes in a ton of colors and sizes these are made for movement so they are great for all weather and looks as well. Comfortable because they are no compressive so you can wear all day from yoga, to lunch to lounge. Keep their shape and look new as mine are also about 4 years old! Runs about $98.

Dupe option is here, Under $40! I have heard they are super similar though I do not personally own.

The Lululemon Wunder Train Legging— recently converted to now nearly my Favorite legging for workout. High waisted and 7/8 length the Everlux material combines comfort, sweat wicking, breathability– this is one that is a HIGH performance legging. Lift, run, walk do any kind of workout PLUS take them to lunch and beyond. Made for movement and high intensity workouts! Wash and wear perfect, looks brand new each time and does not lose shape with wear. Runs about $98.

Dupe: Couple other options I would suggest for workout are here and here— Both under $45 and run TTS. 🙂

Size: I wear Size 8 my typical Lululemon size.

The Aerie Offline Shine/Crackle legging. High Waisted and 7/8 length Has the look of a faux leather legging with more comfortable lounge fit. No shapewear in these as they will be more comfortable but don’t give me that same confidence as the previous pair. Given the look however they are a great dupe option to previous more expensive pairs with the same look. Runs under $50.

Size: I wear Large which is my typical Size.

Hi Friends!

Finally Fall on a Friday?! Yes please!!!! We can finally start pulling out all the stops in our favorite pieces for the fall!  THIS OUTFIT. This is like one I LIVE in, the athleisure trend, I’m pretty sure it’s made for me. Functional, easy to move, I can do ALL THE THINGS in it. Loving this print mix too, we have done a tiny bit over the past few weeks with leopard and stripes, and nothing really excites me more than to start mixing in a little camo! #momperfect Ya’ll if you don’t have this vest YOU NEED IT! Layer it together with literally everything, hoodies jackets or exactly like I did  with the stripe tunic! And you guys these boots…THEY ARE MY FAVORITE! They keep you stylish with the slight wedge but also, extreme waterproof technology will let you jump in all the puddles! 😉 And I hope you do!

Ok, here we go fall- show us what you got!

As always friends, thank you so much for stopping by and I cannot wait to see how you style it!

Outfit of the Day: Purple Tunic and Leggings



September 10, 2018

Photos By Natasha Anne Photography

Hey Friends! Today’s Look of the Day post are a few favorite pieces perfect for on the go!  I just love the colors! Purple in general is one of my favorite colors, I think its so versatile and can be worn in all the seasons! That makes it such a good buy! This V-Neck tunic is a great one, covers the booty, lightweight enough to layer and is such a pretty color! Accessorized with a blanket scarf, it can be worn when the weather is cool or stowed in your purse when it gets slightly warmer. Easy to wear with my everyday high waisted leggings. I added a little front tuck just for a little playfulness! You know I can’t say enough about my booties, I’ll keep talking about them and wearing them as long as they make them! Waterproof, comfortable and chic!

 

I hope you enjoy today’s post, thank you so much for stopping by! I would love to see how you style it for yourself!

Outfit of the Day: Cozy Tunic Sweater



September 7, 2018

Photos by Natasha Anne Photography

Hey Friends!  This  is LITERALLY one of my favorite looks to date all because it’s all about the cozy. On the go, and to sports games especially in the fall, I need to be comfy, able to layer and move around. This chenille turtleneck top is one of the coziest things I have found so far! It’s made of a chenille material and is perfect for leggings or denim.  These leggings I can take on the go or to fitness class, they are high waisted and can be worn so many ways! I love my slip ons– they are great with any casual look too!

Thank you for stopping by and checking out today’s look of the day! I appreciate your time and as always I would love to see how you style it too!
