Review on πŸ‘— Briggs Women's Stretch Millennium Pocket Suiting & Blazers for Women's Clothing by Justin Anderson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Thin, clear, gentle. But AREA. Nanny required.

I'm 5'8, 155 pounds, soft hourglass. More weight in my thighs/less abs after two kids. I wear 10-12 these days; 10 fits well in these pants. I love them as work pants (teachers) because they fit a variety of top silhouettes and almost feel like yoga pants. They're skinny and toned but NOT tight skinny legs and they don't pinch that weird cesarean patch like button-down dress pants. Added bonus: I didn't find myself doing 3 lessons with the zip open because I barely had time to rush to the bathroom! Ah, the life of a teacher. I used to wear similar slimming pants from Liz Claiborne, but they've changed the cut to a (colorful) loose straight leg and they don't look good on my body anymore. They are very similar to the older slim straights, they are a bit long but I have short legs for my height. Everything is fine with ballet flats - minimal assembly on the lower ankle. Wash in COLD YOU, Woolite, turn inside out and hang to dry. No shrinkage/shelf life issues so far. Will be updated if this changes. Taking off a star because this is a FUCKING AREA that always has strength/shrinkage/pull issues. But it is cheap and therefore ubiquitous. Pooh.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Makes me nervous
