NOT me.
Because I am out Christmas shopping for my daughters AND I need new leggings to wear with the Tizzie shirts I am selling, ( more on that tomorrow) I have done the research and yes...
the hard work!
I have narrowed down the BEST leggings to two different brands.
Lululemon and Zella.
We all know Lulu lemon. Zella is a Nordstrom brand that was developed by a former Lululemon designer.
Here is the breakdown for basic leggings that you can wear to yoga or in every day life:
Lululemon-
Wunder Unders for yoga, the gym and everything in between. When winter weather comes, we want to keep on wearing them. We gave this version a brushed finish on the inside to keep us extra toasty. We like to tuck them into our Wellies and go!

I've always been a fan of Lululemon. However, a $40 price difference guaranteed that I would try the Zella brand.
I bought a pair of leggings a couple of weeks ago and have been wearing them for work and for when I play paddle.
I LOVE ZELLA!!!
Not just because of the price. They have a tight, snug fit that makes me feel supported- no jiggle! There isn't sag at the knees and they have kept their dark black color after multiple washings!
I recommend you give Zella a try and save yourself $40!
