I'm going through a phase where I just feel like jeans encase my flab and make me feel quite repulsive.

Soo...while on a diet I'm on a mission to find the best black leggings. And tunic tops?

I like Sainsburys leggings. They also do Jeggings which are thicker and more like Jeans. Nice and comfy around the waist.

Next leggings are okay. They're the nicest ones I've owned.

For tunic tops checkout Pepper Tree and Nomads.

Second Sainsburys, especially if you're tall.

The £10 luxury ones with Modal are bloody marvellous, and wash beautifully. They don't go all baggy round the knees either.

Hennes are good as are next and Dorothy perkins

Do you mean People Tree Ninja?

TitsalinaBumSquash · 23/01/2014 19:51

I love Sainsbury's jeggins, they do lovely colours and they wash really well. Smile

Woowoowoowoo · 23/01/2014 19:52

Yes I'm v tall! Ooh shall definitely stock up!

Woowoowoowoo · 23/01/2014 19:52

Angry feet - yes Next are nice. I've had them.

Topshop are good, the £18 are very thick & long, Im 5'7 & they are ankle length.

conquistador · 23/01/2014 19:54

yy to Sainsburys leggings! The slightly more expensive range in there are really fab.

PoisonedApple · 23/01/2014 19:55

Mint velvet, thick and very wide waist band so they look smooth under tops and very good quality.

arethereanyleftatall · 23/01/2014 20:27

Boden

BumpNGrind · 23/01/2014 20:28

Another vote for sainsburys here.

deepestpurple · 23/01/2014 20:28

Next do good basic leggings also thicker ones that are lovely and warm.

mydaftlass · 23/01/2014 20:34

Another fan of Sainsburys ones. I'm getting myself some more tomorrow.

ChaffinchOfDoom · 23/01/2014 20:35

yes...beware some leggings become see through in sunlight; I have witnessed this on the playground Grin

kaumana · 23/01/2014 20:39

Boden - don't bag, don't fade, totally opaque + very comfy. Two years on and they are as good as new.

SomethingkindaOod · 23/01/2014 20:41

Next black leggings are really good.

Woowoowoowoo · 23/01/2014 20:42

Right I'm now torn between Boden and Sainsburys. Anyone had both?

As a pp said the American Apparell ones are amazing. And hold your tummy in.

Lovepancakes · 23/01/2014 20:42

I've just got some from Hush and never knew leggings could be so comfortable. It's now hard to wear anything else !
