Dear Yoga and Pants,
You make me a better person. Thank you for the comfort that you provide to me and for how safe you make me, and my mid-section, feel each and every day. When I look at you every morning, laying there on the floor just waiting for me so patiently, I know that you will be understanding of whatever decisions that I choose to make that day; your support is empowering.
Thank you for allowing me to eat however much I please during my mealtimes by providing me with your expandable mid-line waste-line that doesn't punish my underwear line upon temporary expansion. I want you to know that eating that third taco at lunch-time brings me immense joy each and every time. I could not do that without you.
Thank you for not requiring buttons, like my former lover required - his name is "jeans".
Thank you for helping me defeat the evil "muffin top" that emerges in my mid-section each winter - your elasticity and your flexibility with my torso shows both your true purpose to humanity and it highlights your strong ability to adapt to non-ideal circumstances. These are qualities that are not found in many.
Thank you for your superb ability to truly multi-task...by being my "day-pants," my pajamas; and, even sometimes (ok, the truth is: often), you even become my "going out for the night" pair of pants - my ex, "Jeans," may have the looks, but 'Jeans' doesn't understand me the way that you do; I cannot bear to leave you on a Friday night.
Sometimes I feel guilty for not being forthcoming about our relationship; please note that when I wear an extra-long shirt or a tank-top that could technically be worn as a 'dress' and which disguises your signature fold-over wrap at the hip (the fold that marks you as a "yoga pant") that this is not because I am ashamed of you; rather, I am afraid of how much I love you.
Thank you doing a fine job at replacing all other pants in my life. I love you forever.
Love always,
MommySaidSo

What are your faves?
ReplyDeleteGreat question! Where do I start? Ha. Here are my favorite brands:
ReplyDelete- The "SO" brand of yoga pants (sold at Kohl's) are fantastic (usually run about $20, but you can get them on sale and/or use the Kohl's coupons if you sign up for their Kohl's card.
- "Hard Tail" (these are a bit pricey though...around $70)
- I really like the "Victoria's Secret" yoga pants (they sell a huge variety online), and these normally run about $20-$30.
- "Xersion," sold at JcPenney, is pretty good, but I'd recommend going to the actual store - they don't have a good online selection currently.
- I do NOT like the "Old Navy" brand of yoga pants...they make me look frumpy.
- "BP" makes a good yoga pair of yoga pants (sold at Nordstrom).
Overall, my favorite-favorites are the "SO" brand and the "Victoria's Secret" brand, and they happen to be some of the most reasonably-priced too.
