The Best High Waisted Leggings for Working Out.

Hi, it's me. I just needed to come on here and make an announcement for all of my curvy girls struggling to find a good pair of gym tights.

It took me so freakin' long to find a pair of tights that weren't see through, wouldn't fall down/ride up and ACTUALLY stocked my size (I fluctuate between a 12 to 16. Sizing is wack, I hate it.)

That is, until I discovered Cotton on Body.

Cotton On, while being an awesome brand that focuses on body positivity, is also aiming to increase their ethical consideration in the production of their garments which is a big plus from me!

Personally, my favourite tights are the Sculpt 7/8 Tight (retailing for about $39.95 AUD) 

A realistic photo of me, after a work out. You're welcome.
(P.S everyone looks skinnier lying down - apparently it's a physics thing?)

The benefits to these bad boys are:
  • They aren't bloody see through!
  • They don't fall down
  • They don't ride up (no one likes exercise gear in their lady bits)
  • They're ACTUALLY affordable!
In comparison, Lulu Lemon's Wunder Under Tight retail for about $119.00 AUD (do you know how many blocks of chocolate I could buy with that money!?) while Lorna Jane's Sammie 7/8 Support Tight goes for around $95.99 AUD. Yasssss Cotton On you have me wrapped around your thrifty little finger!

I honestly live in these things... I never thought I would be one of 'those,' people yet here we are.

You can find the rest of the Cotton On exercise legging range HERE
I've basically tried all of them and have loved them all - the ones mentioned in this article are just my faves!

If you have any recommendations for active wear that won't break the bank/are actually good quality, please let me know!

Also; I'm not sponsored nor affiliated with Cotton On (I wish lol) I just heckin love their stuff.
