Hands down, my most worn clothing item last year was my Spanx Faux Leather Leggings. I literally cannot even begin to tell you how much I love the Spanx brand in general. I first bought a classic black pair of Spanx leggings two years ago, and they did not disappoint. I had a HARD time justifying the price tag for something so simple as a black legging, but man, oh man, have I gotten my moneys worth. I now have a small collection of basic colors, because lets be honest, don’t we all live in leggings during the Fall? They hug you in all of the right places, and hold in the “mom pooch.” There is nothing I cant stand more than my booty jiggling around when I wear a lightweight pant. This material is thicker and more compressive than a cheaper legging, so it helps with the jiggle.
The faux leather style is so on trend, and has become so popular over the past year. I’m sure you’ve seen them all over Instagram. They are that good. They have also added multiple colors colors and styles, such as another favorite, the Moto. The sheen gives the look of leather, but the soft fabric provides the comfort. I told all of my friends about them last year, and they are hooked. Style AND comfort, right up our alley.
Are you are looking for something to give you the same overall faux leather look, without the hefty price tag? I have found something that will help you achieve that. At more than half of the cost, Target saves the day. Who doesn’t love Target anyway?
I came across these the other day in store. I noticed they had the same look as my beloved Spanx leggings, so of course, I had to buy them. The price tag is amazing, I was shocked. Ill be honest, though, they do not give you the same tight compression that the Spanx will. Plus I’m sure the quality of the fabrics are different, so you might want to take that in consideration. BUT if you are all about achieving the look, these are perfect! I am excited to add these to my arsenal of leggings, and have them to wear when my Spanx are in the laundry.
I found that the Target leggings run a bit big. For size reference, I wear a size XS in these, but I am a medium in Spanx.
These are sold in store( mine were in the juniors department) and online.
Any other Spanx lovers out there? I would love to hear from you! If you have or purchase these, please tag me in any photos on Instagram or Facebook, I would love to see you!
