May 27, 201313 yr How do they do with cottage cheese thighs, make it better? Emphasize it? Are they breathable, hot and miserable? I'm going to save them to my want list if they're good.
June 10, 201313 yr Author I'm wearing them now' date=' I love them, but have never tried any others[/quote'] Thanks! I just ordered a couple of the running looking ones. I'm particularly excited about the grey/pink ones! I'm excited to try them on.
June 10, 201313 yr I have this one pair of calf length yoga leggings that fit so awesome and make me feel like I must look great! Until I saw myself in the mirror, they enhanced every little ripple and crater in my skin
June 10, 201313 yr The new ones aren't that great, i think they are really thin and feel like pantyhose. I would go with Underarmour or Nike. Worth every penny. You can find great priced Nike at Penny's some weeks.
June 10, 201313 yr I love them! I have several pairs and they allow my skin to breathe. I hate workout pants that feel thick and show sweat spots in the crotch area. They aren't super tight but I don't like my workout pants to feel stiff so it works for me. I feel so slim when I put them on and they come up above the belly button and that's exactly what I need after having 3 kids. I can't wear low rise anything lol. They are fitted but not stiff and if you can do a split these will definitely allow you lol. Oh and I have cottage cheese legs and they look great on me.
June 10, 201313 yr Well I don't have Old Navy but I do have Flexees exercise pants...they look like this: http://www.maidenform.com/shapewear/styles/leggings/flexees-fat-free-dressing-weekender-2140 And at first I didn't wear them. It basically took all my excess skin/fat and pushed it up! Well then I figured out how to combat that. By wearing a Flexees tank like this: http://www.maidenform.com/shapewear/brands/flexees/flexees-fat-free-dressing-tank-top-3266 And that helps smooth the lumps and bumps. The only thing I don't like about the leggings is I wish they were a tad longer (I'm 5'6") and I always feel like they are a bit on the short side. Other wise I really like them.
June 11, 201313 yr The best ever (IMO) are the Marika Tech mid-calf yoga leggings. The waistband is wide and comes all the way up to the navel but the trimming is low around the hips, giving you the best of high-waisted and low-rise The thickness of the fabric is perfect, thick enough to smooth everything out and absorb sweat, thin enough to stay sleek and not get in your way or make you overheat (an issue for me). Best ever!!
June 11, 201313 yr Thanks! I just ordered a couple of the running looking ones. I'm particularly excited about the grey/pink ones! I'm excited to try them on. I work for Old Navy and they are actually having a sale on them right now. They make a thin version and a thicker version. There is a price difference. The grey/pink or the black/pink are some of the better quality ones, so good choice!

The ones w the slit in the back had a review that said they were almost see through. And I took advantage of the sale.

I think the sale has wiped out some of their stock so there was limited options. I'm wearing them right now and really like them!

June 14, 201313 yr I just bought 2 pair of these a couple days ago (15 each). They do a good job smoothing out saddlebags and cottage cheese and I found them to be really comfortable. My biggest fear was wearing fitted pants with a t shirt that didn't cover my butt, but I got over it. Much better than my old, baggy ones....I was starting to look like a Justin Beiber wannabe with the hanging crotch. :-)
