I’m on a scrolling spree. I’ve been looking on-line for the final three hours and twenty minutes with the only goal of treating myself to a pair of “luxurious” leggings. I discover my dream pair, made by a high-end model and hooked up to a fair higher-end worth. However it’s price it, proper? *Cue the daydream by which, just by sporting the costly leggings, my whole life transforms. I put on them to scorching yoga every morning at 8 am. I put on them on the aircraft once I transfer to Paris. I put on them as I climb the Eiffel Tower with my new French mates.*
Then I verify my checking account stability to verify what I already know—it’s not a good time to spend greater than $100 on pants. I recall without delay that I don’t even like scorching yoga and I’m not touring to France any time quickly.
Although I can’t afford what some might think about the “it lady” leggings, I nonetheless want one thing to put on to yoga and the health club. I peruse some lower-priced choices once I come throughout the Offline Actual Me Aerie Crossover Leggings. They’re on sale (much like the one Aerie is holding right now). I buy two pairs in several kinds, totally planning on designating them my holdover leggings till I get my subsequent paycheck. Later, as if my life was a rom-com by which rivals flip into lovers, I might fall in love with these leggings after actually attending to know them (although, sadly, not in Paris).
The crossover design on these stretchy leggings feels far more snug on my abdomen than a conventional waistband. I by no means need to yank them up mid-class as they keep completely in place. And these are soooo light-weight—the right pair of leggings to tuck away in a health club locker or yoga bag. Maybe as a result of the fabric is fairly skinny, it’s additionally breathable. The one draw back I skilled whereas sporting the Aerie Crossover Leggings was an unlucky incident involving sporting white underwear and working towards Standing Forward Bend within the stretching space of my health club. Below these fluorescent lights, I may see within the mirror behind me that I used to be revealing greater than my love of yoga. Black underwear is the best way to go. Though in the event you’re in a dimly lit yoga studio, you’re in all probability lined.
These are the identical fashion and materials because the pair above—the one distinction is the leggings grow to be wider and flare out beneath your knee. Though I used to be initially involved that I’d appear to be the fifth member of ABBA sporting them, I couldn’t have been extra happy with the aesthetic. They appear extra like actual pants than most yoga leggings I’ve owned, which suggests the Aerie Crossover Flare Leggings work as effectively with a exercise high as they do with an oversize sweatshirt or cardigan if I’m grabbing espresso with a buddy post-yoga class.
