Lululemon are incomparable, Sweaty Betty second best option and currently 50% off.

Sainsburys TU Luxury leggings are very good - thick, wide waist band, thick material that doesn't show your knickers & only £10 per pair.

Snag also excellent.

I'd have said sweaty Betty but actually the high waisted good move leggings from M&S do function better in my opinion. SB look slightly more flattering but the M&S ones have a much higher waist (and drawstring) which makes them more comfortable and better at staying up.

Queenieke from Amazon and they have side pockets.

sweaty Betty all day high waisted are SO comfortable.

I was going to suggest these too. I'm wearing a pair right now in the black cherry colour and they're just so comfortable. They also don't budge when you're on a spin bike - so many others roll down and become annoying.

Sweaty Betty and Spanx for dressing up.

On holiday in Paris last year I went into the Gap store. Our Gap store at home had gone, so thought I'd have a look. Came out with their high rise universal jeggings and I love them. Once I was home I ordered another pair of what I thought was the same online, but they're called 'leggings'. Whatever, they're just the same. They look like skinny jeans and are very comfortable. Also, I've paid far more for skinny jeans made out of the same materials than the Gap ones cost.

Looking back on the thread responses it seems you're looking for 'leggings' leggings, so ignore my suggestion

Are the Sweaty Betty ones sporty fabric or everyday soft fabric please?

Mint velvet for a 'everyday' fabric choice. They come in three different lengths

SKIMS all the way. Amazing

I second mint velvet leggings

Fabletics. Sign up for the two for £24 and then cancel. They are the best leggings I've ever had.

I got a great pair of high-waisted leggings in Tesco. Soft, stretchy good quality fabric.

Somewhere in between I think. Like soft fabric, not shiny athletic fabric like Tikiboos, but it wicks sweat. I don't wear leggings for everyday so maybe a poor judge but I can't see that they would look at all out of place if worn for non sporty purposes.

Sweaty Betty high waisted power leggings are amazing at holding in my mum tum but are still really comfy. They are in the sale the moment in a few colours but sadly not in black.

The M&S ones roll down on me.

Second Queenieke, they are amazing and have replaced my Sweaty Betty ones.

I got a beautiful pair of SB powers in the sale. The most flattering leggings I've tried but they don't stay up on me. I often add drawstring to leggings but these have a weird thick bonded panel at the top - which looks fab - but I can't work out how to add a string with no double layer of fabric to put it in. I have caught myself wondering if braces would work....
