After going down the LuLaRoe rabbit hole and trying their infamous leggings for myself, I wanted to see what other people with different body types thought of them
The leggings, which cost $25 (plus tax and shipping), come in two versions of "one size fits all": One-Size (aka OS), which supposedly fits sizes 2-10, and Tall & Curvy (or T&C), which is for sizes 12-22.
1. Augusta
Thoughts: They are SO soft! It feels like exactly like when you shave your legs and you feel like a dolphin in the sheets. Other leggings I own have cost less than this and I immediately noticed the higher quality. ALSO, I could put these on over my shoes without the tips of my shoes getting caught in legging jail, which is a plus in my book.
7. Joanna
Thoughts: Considering leggings are supposed to be tight and clingy, I was extremely skeptical about a “one size fits all” version. I was also a little worried about the only alternative size being called “tall and curvy,” because I’m short and curvy. But I tried on the OS pair first and was shocked that they fit me really well.
8. Terri
Thoughts: Well, I own the black ones and I wear them pretty much every time I’m lounging in my apartment or running errands. I loooove black leggings, and it’s hard to find a pair that isn’t completely see-through, but these are delightfully opaque.
9. Conz
Thoughts: These were shockingly soft. Like, they were so nice to put on and wear around. I don’t think I’ve ever worn something as soft as these leggings. They were a little long and crumpled up either below my butt (if I pulled them up) or at my ankles (if I pulled them down).
10. Krutika
Thoughts: These leggings feel like if clothes could be made out of shea butter. How are basic-ass leggings so comforting? Why do I suddenly feel as if I will never have to moisturize again? I would definitely buy multiples of these in basic colors (black, heather gray, definitely), but the patterns leave a lot to be desired.

6. I can confirm that the legendary softness is real!
LuLaRoe leggings are hella soft. Like, baby bunny soft. The “buttery” descriptor isn’t inaccurate, though “velvety” is the word that came to mind when I put them on.
