Not too expensive ($20/$30s) and Gap always seems to have some sort of coupon code available online. The fabric was very comfortable to wear. I'm pretty sure Gap offers multiple styles of maternity leggings -- full panel (which I didn't find comfy), zero panel, etc -- at least this was the case when I was pregnant last year. Oh, and I found with maternity wear in general it helped to shop at places with good return policies just in case! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480630 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 19:37:23 +0000 QBbride 2480630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsB2012: oh awesome thanks! The Wunder Unders I have aren't high rise but I definitely need high rise now :crying: I will check out the Align pants!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480596 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 19:12:21 +0000 MrsB2012 2480596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@elchalten: We don't have a store so I couldn't try them on when I ordered. I went with an 8 but could wear a 6, especially with the higher waist. I think I usually size up to avoid the sheerness of a tighter legging, although apparently lulu has addressed that issue.<br /> I find the quality is good, they aren't pilling at all, don't have any runs or anything. I don't take great care of them, I wash them with everything else and I put them in the dryer and they've held up really well. I was afraid that they wouldn't hold up well as the material seems so light. I would never wear them to work out in, they seem too delicate. But I really love them!</p> <p>@QBbride: I've never tried the high time, but I do have the high rise wonder under. I prefer them over the wonder unders. I find the material is more.. daily as oppsed to 'workout' gear. The waist is a kind of in between the normal rise and the high rise wonder unders. They are also more of a 7/8 length style as they don't go right down to your ankles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480538 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 18:08:01 +0000 QBbride 2480538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to really like Lulu Wunder Unders but now I'm in love with their High Times leggings. They're 7/8th length, which is perfect for me since I'm short and like to wear them with flats anyway. </p> <p>@MrsB2012: do you know how Align pants compare with the High Times? Just curious! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480456 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:55:35 +0000 elchalten 2480456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lilyann: thanks. I'll give the smaller size another go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480454 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:54:57 +0000 elchalten 2480454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: I bought a pair and returned them the next day. The started piling on the inside within a few hours of wear. Super disappointing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480451 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:52:50 +0000 lilyann 2480451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@elchalten: I've had mine for about 6 months and they are just now starting to pill-not very noticeable in black. I don't treat mine delicately and wear them several times a week. I am normally a 6 in Lulu but went down to a 4 in these and they fit much better! I think they would be perfect pregnancy leggings because of the super high waist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480438 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:46:08 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2480438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I recently bought Gapfit leggings! They are from their maternity fit line and they are thick. They don't fall down at all. Highly recommend!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480435 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:45:12 +0000 elchalten 2480435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you for all the replies! </p> <p>@MrsB2012: and @lilyann: I went to the store and tried them on. Wooooow!!!! I'm unsure about the sizing though. If you are in between sizes, would you go up or down???? I couldn't make up my mind. And if I spend 100, I want to be SURE. </p> <p>How is the quality? The reviews seem at be bad. Are they holding up? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480426 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:40:02 +0000 lilyann 2480426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsB2012: These are by far my favorite Lulu leggings!! I have them in black and wear them all the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480025 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 13:15:46 +0000 JK 2480025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my wonder unders, but not when I was pregnant. I felt like I couldn't breathe in them! Have you tried the blackout ones from Gap? gDance or something? I love mine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2480020 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 13:12:03 +0000 lisa1783 2480020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore my Zella leggings all through my pregnancy - just much lower and had long shirts to cover my belly. I liked that they were a tighter material - it definitely minimized my thigh jiggle! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479981 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 12:42:51 +0000 yoursilverlining 2479981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like Hue leggings and jeggings generally, but no way I could have worn them while pregnant and especially not during pregnancy and after pregnancy. </p> <p>When I was pregnant, I wore black leggings from Pea in the Pod that were definitely not see-through at all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479978 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 12:42:00 +0000 MrsB2012 2479978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm obsessed with the Align pant at lululemon. I bought 2 pairs in the last few weeks and am looking at a third pair. They are the perfect legging. Buttery soft, great fit, flattering. They have a bit of a higher waist so they would work well for pregnancy. A bunch of the reviews say they pill a lot but I don't take great care of mine ( wash with everything, throw in the dryer ) and they aren't pilling at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479976 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 12:41:10 +0000 MrsKoala 2479976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you for asking this!!! I was just wondering the same thing. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479958 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 12:33:48 +0000 lamariniere 2479958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have Hue and Zella. I find Hue to be somewhat see-through, but I like the wide waistband. The Zellas are very thick and hold me in, but I don't like the waistband as much. I didn't have either when pregnant, so I'm not sure how the waistbands would feel when very pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479935 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 12:24:17 +0000 MrsKerch 2479935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got some spanx leggings off of ruelala and found that I love them! </p> <p>Second the love for Zella. I've been able to find them at the Rack sometimes too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479933 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 12:23:41 +0000 deerylou 2479933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like my Hue leggings, but they wouldn't be a maternity option for me, as they are very form fitting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479930 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 12:21:58 +0000 Zbug 2479930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE my hue leggings. I like my zellas but definitely prefer hues. Probably just depends on your body shape. I really liked my gap maternity leggings, but they were on the thin side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479923 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 12:18:24 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2479923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have Zella leggings and I love them. I wear them so much. BUT. I was not able to wear them past 6 or so months pregnant. They are a bit higher waisted and are designed to kind of "suck you in" (they aren't compression or anything, but the waistband is high enough and tight enough that they are slimming) so they don't work with a huge pregnant belly. At least for me. But I was able to wear them the day after delivery and they got me through the PP stage.</p> <p>I love my wonder unders from lulu. They are a bit thinner than my zellas, but still nowhere close to see through. I could see these ones being better for pregnancy (though again, the waist band is a bit tight and doesn't fold down so you'd have to make sure they fit low around your hips. I'm an hourglass so this doesn't work well for me.)</p> <p>I have Hue leggings and hate them. :(</p> <p>I wish there were amazing maternity leggings but I haven't found any! I have ones from H&amp;M, Target, and Motherhood, and they all have that loosey goosey feeling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-hue-zella-wonder-under#post-2479852 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 11:51:14 +0000 elchalten 2479852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm currently 4.5 months pregnant and looking for a great, no (zero!!) see through black pair of leggings. </p> <p>I hope to get something that will get me through the pregnancy but I'll also be able to wear after. </p> <p>I'm ok spending more if the quality is right. </p> <p>Ah, and I haaaaate the jiggly feeling of loose leggings. So they should also hold up their shape. </p> <p>Do leggings like that even exist? What's your favorite??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings/page/2#post-416893 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 13:04:18 +0000 Ash 416893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: there's a groupon for $25 for AA... good for $50 worth of stuff. I think I might be buying my leggings!! :)) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings/page/2#post-411241 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 00:46:35 +0000 Ash 411241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: bahahahahahaha! yes. :P How'd it look all put together?!?!<br /> I wore my Mossimo leggings today... I was eh, about them. The deal at Express is defintely good but after seeing the reviews for the winter leggings at AA, I want them so bad. Ya know, since it is winter and all. Just watching to see if they get cheaper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings/page/2#post-409888 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:21:28 +0000 PinkElephant 409888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a pair of black jeggings (ugh, I hate that word) from Uniqlo that are really great! They're thick but soft, so they don't feel/look much like denim. They hold their shape really well (I'm on holiday right now and am on wear # 3 without washing, and they're still fine), and are definitely not see-thru/don't give VPL. I bought them about 2 years ago, but would imagine Uniqlo still sells something similar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings/page/2#post-409732 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 16:49:36 +0000 Foodnerd81 409732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: Update-- they are great. Thinker than most yoga or workout pants that I have, so could almost pass as pants (especially if you have really nice legs and butt). I went up a size, since, you know, I'm pregnant, no sense in going small. I'm wearing them for Thanksgiving (eating pants!) with a pink long loose t-shirt I got at the Gap today for $7 and a long, flowy loose gray cardigan and knee high boots. The shirt just covers the crotch and is longer to cover the bum in the back, plus the cardigan is really long. Um... in case you needed the whole rundown. Shall I share info about my socks and underwear too? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings/page/2#post-409617 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 15:36:09 +0000 Mrs. Pen 409617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: yup! mine are mossimo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings/page/2#post-409613 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 15:29:47 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 409613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: did we buy the same brand? Mine are really flattering and didn't stretch at all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings/page/2#post-409600 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 15:20:09 +0000 Mrs. Pen 409600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: I tried some on at Ann Taylor this fall too and I LOVED them... sooo thick and luxurious but they were like $50 :(</p> <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: I bought target leggings recently and hate them! I did size up, but they stretch out after a couple hours so they get baggy and the waistband is really tight and digs into my "baby pooch" so it creates unsightly lines :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings#post-409593 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 15:17:01 +0000 Mrs. Pen 409593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: thought of you! Livingsocial is having a deal on Athleta leggings, 2 for $29 which is a great deal I think! I'm super tempted to buy some! And they are Organic ;) haha.</p> <p>ETA: woops read the deal wrong, it's a brand called athletica that I've never heard of but either way it doesn't seem like a bad deal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-leggings#post-409269 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 11:46:47 +0000 Ash 409269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: awesome! Let me know if they're thick! :) please! </p>
