To ask who makes THE best black leggings?

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.

NinjaBunny · 23/01/2014 19:45

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

BikeRunSki · 23/01/2014 19:50

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!

Boden for the leggings

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 !
