SAHM Badge Unlocked: Leggings



This is the story of my first pair of leggings.


  I KNOW I KNOW "leggings aren't pants" "leggings are too pants" THE DRAMA.... The only opinion about leggings I care for is my own, and slightly my husband's.  Truth be told, I think they can definitely be worn outside and can look very good on people.  I was always very hesitant to try leggings.  As a plus size woman I felt that they would not flatter my shape well (also the reason I do not wear boot cut or skinny jeans) but boy was I wrong.

First, my husband totally digs my figure. It might not be one that has mass appeal, but I didn't marry "the General Public" I married my husband. And he thinks I look good. Works for me! I recently let him pick a pair of jeans for me.  I would never have picked them myself, but the boost of confidence that comes from that look in his eye is all I needed to OWN IT!

Second, THIS PAIR IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COMFORTABLE.  Now, I want to be clear, I have no idea what other leggings feel like. I only have the one so far and it's LuLaRoe brand.  Seriously the softest things I have ever put on my body. Including my own children. (But really, why are their elbows so pointy?!)

I have worn them two Saturdays in a row.  Don't judge me.

The super important part that I want to tell you about these LuLaRoe ones specifically is that when I opened the package I was sure there was no chance they would fit me. I was crazy bummed, but decided I had to at least try them on. After all, if a pair of pants says it fits from size 10-26 you have to at least see if it goes up over your thighs. and OHHHH MY GOSH IT FITS!!!!!!!!!! I was doing a victory lap around my empty house!  Are you kidding me?! These things actually fit a size 10 person AND a size 26 person!!

If you are a person who wears leggings, you have to try them.
If you are a person who NEVER thought you would wear leggings, you DEFINITELY need to try them.  For Real.

I'm not even getting paid to say this. I paid for these leggings with my husband's hard earned income!
Now that you know you need these amazing, soft, warm, bold leggings in your life, here is the facebook page for my girl, Jessica, who is an awesome lady.  Go visit www.facebook.com/groups/lularoejessicasue and get your hands on some amazing leggings!
