Review on Effortlessly Chic: Marycrafts Women'S Pull On Stretch Yoga Dress Business Work Pants by Non Dollarz

UPDATE: after having these a few months and putting them through the washer and dryer several times, I can say that the color has held up quite nicely, but they did shrink a bit. I typically hang dry these, but there have been a couple incidents where I didn’t have that option. I would still consider them ankle pants, but they are dangerously close to calf length. After I noticed this, I became more consistent with hang drying them, and all is well. I honestly don’t know how anyone taller than me would be able to wear these in a professional setting. They would be SO SHORT!These are exactly what I’ve been looking for! I’ve been wanting to simplify my work wardrobe with multiple pairs of the same black slacks, and a couple different tops to pair with them so that I can literally take all thought out of dressing for work! However, it is really hard for me to find slacks that fit because I am relatively short with a big booty and thick thighs (5’3” 150 lbs). Anything straight or wide legged just swallows me up and basically looks like sweatpants, but with slim fitting slacks, I always have to choose between ones that fit my waist and ones that fit my hips/butt. And no matter how they fit my waist and butt, they’re usually too long! On top of all of that, I am also completely unwilling to sacrifice comfort when it comes to work clothes. So, it’s a tall order to fill, and I was just about to cave and go with beta brand when I stumbled across these. So glad I gave them a shot! These pants are so comfy, and the front pockets and ever so slight flare at the ankle definitely give them more of a "skinny slacks” look, rather than a "leggings” look. However, you get the best of both worlds because they still FEEL like leggings! They are also the perfect length for me, hitting right where my ankle meets my foot. If you’re over 5’5” or particularly leggy, just keep in mind that these will not be full-length pants on you.Only reason I gave them 4 stars (and really, I’d say it’s more like a 4.5) is because the waist is just a little on the tight side. It squishes me a TINY bit, but not enough to make them uncomfortable or unflattering. I would just make the waist like a centimeter or two bigger, if I was tailoring these to my specifications. I got these in a size 8, and I think anything bigger would be too loose, and for the price and overall quality, that’s a pretty minor drawback! I also just got them, so I haven’t washed them yet, and time will tell how they hold up. They are a nice thick material though, so as long as they don’t fade, I don’t expect longevity to be an issue.
