Hello! I posted a funny Instagram Reel with the realities of hopping around in leggings to make sure they’re actually compression, high waist, flattering, etc. (You can see it on Instagram @RunEatRepeat) and I just discovered a new pair that have swiftly become my favorite! I got a lot of questions about them & every company has a lot of different options so I’m sharing the certain ones I recommend in this post. Plus, a few updates from the weekend… let’s go!
New favorite budget-friendly and flattering Leggings
First a confession, I’ve observed so lots of influencers and companies raving about ‘buttery soft’ leggings and I can’t relate. I don’t want butter soft leggings. It sounds like my worst nightmare – a skintight pair of pants that cling to every bulge and jiggle with every step? I can feel my butt jiggle just thinking about that. Ei kiitos.

I’m not here to judge if that’s your jam. Do you 1000.
But, or must I say butt – as someone with a big one, I want compression, a flattering cut and material that’s on the thicker side.
And over the years I’ve become somewhat of a leggings connoisseur – I’ve tried all the fancy ones, bargain ones and ones that people vow are ‘Lulu Dupes’. Yeah… no.
I’ve tried Target, Old Navy, tons of different ones from Amazon and a lot more – and they didn’t make the cut… until now. These leggings are the High Waisted elevate from Old Navy and a lot a lot more budget-friendly than Lululemon and Athleta (both of which I wear and love).
What I look for in Leggings:
Compression to control the jiggle
Flattering cut – seamless sounds good, but well placed lines can make you look taller, thinner and your butt look perkier
Quality fabric – often a little thicker than other options so it’s not see-through (aka squat proof)
Other crucial features: Sweat-wicking fabric so you can actually run in them. High waist (but not too high). NO SIDE POCKETS.
Yes, I know side pockets are incredibly valuable and they’re on a lot of new leggings on the market. but I hate them.
I recently discovered these Old Navy workout leggings that hit all my need to haves for both workout and casual wear.
They are the Old Navy High-Waisted elevate Built-In Sculpt leggings for Women.
What I love about the Old Navy High-Waist elevate Leggings:
High waist – the fabric and cut makes it extra flattering
Fabric – thick and terrific compression really holds in the jiggle
Cut – the seams make ya look longer, leaner and hold it all in
Vau. This is NOT an ad, but legit sounds like one. I just get ecstatic about things like this!
Tip: If you have thick thighs and/or a big butt – great! wearing baggy clothes or covering up your booty with extra long tops can just add to your frame. Don’t be self-conscious. put it on display baby!
Whether you check out any of my favorite leggings – I hope you dress and eat and run – like you love yourself.

In life news…
Since I missed my niece’s birthday party due to close contact with someone who checked positive – I made it up to her this weekend. [Ben checked positive for Covid19.]
I went over with gifts and a mini-picnic at the park (it’s one of the few things open and kid friendly around here in southern California).
It felt festive because I brought party plates and we ate snacks and looked for squirrels. good times all around!
