My order arrived today (super fast too!) and I am in love with both pairs of leggings! They feel and fit so nice! I got the Tummy Slimming Capri leggings in gull gray:
And the Straight Leg Capri in folkstone gray:
I knew Zobha ran a little large, so I had to get size XS in the capris. That was definitely the right call because even in XS, they are not super compressive. Both styles have pretty wide waistband that is rather high rise. It may not sound that attractive, but high rise really helps the bottom stay in place and smooths out any problematic tummy areas. I really like everything about them - from the print, to the material, to the fit and the length. I think out of all the different brands I own, these Zobha leggings are closest to Lululemon's wunder under crops. The material feels similar to luon, they have flat locked seams as well as a triangular gusset, and their logo is even on the same place on the back of the waistband. The only difference is that they don't have a hidden waistband pocket. But they are completely bend-test approved!
So here's the Tummy Slimming capris on me. Although, the only difference I find between these and the Straight Leg capri is that the very top of the waistband is not very stretchy. So it's actually a little harder to pull them over your butt when you are putting them on. Both pairs have super wide waistband and the same rise, so I think they both have slimming properties. These are $68 though, whereas the Straight Leg capris are $55. I really like the geometric print!
Look how wide the waistband is! It goes all the way up to my belly button too.
And here are the Straight Leg Capri. This folkstone gray pattern is like a herringbone pattern. I love anything herringbone! These capris are called gray, but they look a bit bluish to me both on the photos and in person.
So here you can see that the waistband is equally as wide and as high rise as the more expensive Tummy Slimming capris above. These are a great deal at $55! Well, I also got 25% off so that's unbeatable value!
Here's the size XS on me. I think I'd like S better if it has more length.
Not too crazy about the side view either:
Really like the herringbone leggings! I think the top looks really cute on you and the shorter length allows you to show off the tank beneath :)
ReplyDeleteThey are having another sale this weekend. I was wondering if you think the xs is like a lulu 2/4 or a 4/6. Trying to determine whether to order a xs or a small!! Thanks for Your Help!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely get XS if you are a lulu 4. It may be too big if you are a 2.
