![]() They are too baggy everywhere… except the backs of my thighs and my crotch. The waist certainly fit a lot better, but all the rest of the problems remained. Here’s the difference between the 2X-Large and the X-Large: I was hoping that most of my ‘too much fabric’ problems would disappear with the smaller size, but instead I just got more problems on top of the ones I already had. I didn’t want to give up on them though… I mean, the promise of comfortable business pants was just too attractive! So, I held onto them and placed a second order for an X-Large size. Here is a close up of the front where you can totally see my panty-lines and my super white tummy:Īnd here is the back, where you can see how fitted the thigh-area is on me: Although the fabric was pretty darn thick, they somehow showed the outline of my panties (which typically don’t show at all). Also, the ‘straight leg’ was much more like a floppy boot cut. This size was too big on me everywhere except the upper legs, but when I would yank them up to where they belonged on my waist I’d get some major unattractive camel-toe action. They actually don’t look too bad in the pictures, but in person they really do look worse. I’m 5’7” and had to wear 3 ½’ heels just to do these pictures.Īs you can see, they are fitted through the thighs and then loose from the knee down. Not only was the waist so large it bagged out, but the hemline was incredibly long. I chalked that up to the ‘business’ style of it… but they were actually quite hot and not in a ‘oooh girl, you’re looking hot kind of way.’ In fact, it was much, much thicker than any yoga pant I’ve worn. When I got my pants in the mail a week or so later, the fabric was definitely really thick and stretchy. Also, if I’m a 2X-Large, how are ladies above a size 12 supposed to wear these? It’s a little disappointing to say the least. I’m typically a size 12 in pants and wear a large, so this was a little karate chop to the ego, to say the least. Also it was recommended to size up if in between sizes.Īccording to their chart, I needed a 2X-Large. ![]() After reading a bunch of comments, I knew that I needed to measure myself and use their size chart to determine the proper size. The pants don’t come in numeric sizes, but X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, X-Large and 2X-Large. I was hoping that I could top them with a blouse and/or blazer and have them pass for “real” pants… with the comfort of stretch. My goal was to have a pair of well-fitting work pants that didn’t look like a wrinkled mess at the end of the day. I decided to try the Straight Leg Black Dress Pant Yoga Pants. Finally, I just went for it and ordered my own pair. Then, I did some googling to see what other bloggers thought of them. I did my due diligence and read though most of the hundreds of comments and reviews on their website. I mean, pants that LOOK like dress pants but FEEL like yoga pants?! Have you guys seen the Facebook ads for the Betabrand dress pant yoga pants? I feel like I’ve been seeing them nonstop for the past few months and they’ve finally worked their way into my subconscious of things I have to try.
