They're a little thicker, but not super thick like fleece lined ones. I love them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-460390 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 13:58:34 +0000 ladyfingers 460390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the Gap maternity leggings, not sure if their regular leggings are the same. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-460330 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 13:24:58 +0000 MaisyMay 460330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Clementine: Check these out! <a href="http://1saleaday.com/family/" rel="nofollow">http://1saleaday.com/family/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-452124 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 16:33:05 +0000 Foodnerd81 452124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs D: I have the Express ones too, and they are definitely leggings, not tights with no feet. Nice and thick, but they are still leggings, not pants-- like I wouldn't be comfortable wearing them the way I would my tight lulu lemon capri pants.<br /> I like the sound of the yoga pant type ones though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-452016 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 15:31:57 +0000 holdonforonemoreday 452016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Clementine: I got some from a line called Leg Candy. They are leggings that are like pant material. So nice... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-452009 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 15:28:05 +0000 JerricaBenton 452009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Soma has these really nice ones - definitely not like tights: <a href="http://www.soma.com/store/browse/product.jsp?maxRec=33&#038;pageId=1&#038;productId=570026792&#038;viewAll=&#038;prd=Slim+Leg+Pant++Short&#038;subCatId=cat6889283&#038;color=&#038;fromSearch=&#038;inSeam=&#038;posId=12&#038;catId=cat5039300&#038;cat=Clothing+Loungewear&#038;onSale=&#038;colorFamily=&#038;maxPg=3&#038;size=" rel="nofollow">http://www.soma.com/store/browse/product.jsp?maxRec=33&#038;pageId=1&#038;productId=570026792&#038;viewAll=&#038;prd=Slim+Leg+Pant++Short&#038;subCatId=cat6889283&#038;color=&#038;fromSearch=&#038;inSeam=&#038;posId=12&#038;catId=cat5039300&#038;cat=Clothing+Loungewear&#038;onSale=&#038;colorFamily=&#038;maxPg=3&#038;size=</a></p> <p>Their regular leggings are nice and thick too.

"Poof!" brand, which is probably some juniors line, but they are so comfy and cheap. I've worn them before I got pregnant and through my entire pregnancy, and they're the only ones that are still comfortable now at 35 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-451884 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 14:25:48 +0000 Mrs D 451884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have two recommendations...</p> <p>I have an awesome pair from Express...they were not super expensive and I love them!</p> <p>Also, on the pricier side are the pixie pant from JCrew...its a little more structured than a legging so I feel its squeezes me in more where I need it. I think these are $88 but maybe there is a 30% off coupon out there somewhere! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-451833 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 14:01:32 +0000 Weagle 451833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for Loft leggings!

BUT, I still wouldn't wear them without something covering the butt, because they are quite fitted and not at all pants-like. But they are WARM, which is nice. I bought 1 pair, and then went back and bought 2 more.</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Capelli-New-York-Fleece-Legging/dp/B0069CO1QW" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Capelli-New-York-Fleece-Legging/dp/B0069CO1QW</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-451802 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:48:59 +0000 heffalump 451802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Walmart leggings I think were $5, Targets were $8, and both are thick and so so comfy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-451789 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:45:24 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 451789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lands End.

I will have to try some of these after I give birth. </p> <p>H&amp;M ones are not good!! The ones I wore pre-preg are from American Apparel. They are definitely leggings, not tights. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-451702 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 12:54:56 +0000 daniellemybelle 451702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Shutterbug: I got Ann Taylor Loft leggings during the 50% sale too, on a recommendation from another thread here! I am wearing them now and they are AMAZING. I would pay full price for them. They are like the ones @Mrs. Pen described - a very fitted yoga pant. I also got XL when I could have gone with an L, and they are so comfy today I want to cry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-451695 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 12:50:33 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 451695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"Live In" legging by Zella at Nordstrom.

They are like a really fitted yoga pant - they are thick, but they are so comfortable and fitted. I wear them with tunics/dresses or sweatshirts.</p> <p>The downside is that GH being an offbrand of Hollister, it's Jrs sizes so I'm in the M-L sizes as it is and they only go up to a large - so even if you're not technically overweight - they might not fit :(</p> <p>However the yoga legging has a LOT of give - and I was able to size down to a M in them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leggings-not-tights-pretending-to-be-leggings#post-451658 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 12:33:07 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 451658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes yes yes!! c'est moi leggings. they are one size fits all and fleece lined. super thick and amazing quality. $19.99 in canada.

I recently purchased one from H&amp;M after some recommendations from the hives, but they seem like glorified tights. Anyone have any cheap but quality legging recommendations. I'm talking thicker than panty hose material that is opaque and not sheer and shiny. </p>
