Best black leggings

12 replies

I've never been one for leggings but I've now got a gorgeous short dress/long blouse, leopard print type and I want to wear it with leggings and boots.
I want to make sure there is no camel toe (not that you'll see it but even so), they don't go baggy at the knees, so can't see through them and they stay down inside my boots.

Any recommendations please?

TIA

I buy a mix of M&S and Sainsbury (Tu)

Recently got some Tu Ponte Leggings in the 25% off . Slightly more like treggings (trouser/legging) very nice and smarter than regular leggings.

Sainsbury’s £10 ones, or mint velvet

I've just found the most amazing fleece lined leggings that wash fantastically, fit well and are so warm and cozy in ... Lidl!

I find mint velvet just a bit big and saggy but other people seem to rave about them. M&S are decent, lots of them have a cuff/ large hem on the bottom of the leg which some people don’t like (doesn’t bother me, and I think stops any bagging). The expensive sainsburies ones are fine as people have said (they are £10 a pair not the 2 for £10 ones).

I’ve worn for the past year £7.99 heavy leggings from H&M.
Thick comfy & no bagging

Mint Velvet. Size down. They are proper amazing.

Tesco. And I'm usually one to turn my nose up at supermarket clothing Blush. But honestly the best leggings ever.

Primark cosy leggings are very good, very thick and they wash well, although they are slightly too short to guarantee they stay in ankle boots (on me anyway, I’m 5’7)

I'm wearing the Mint Velvet leggings tonight with my new top.
Comfortable so far; let's hope they stay up and expand as I eat Grin

I feel quite young and trendy Smile
