Leggings have one job and one job only: to be flattering. Oh, and also to be very comfortable.

These are the basic tenets of stretchy legwear. It’s how it’s always been, and how it always will be.

But you and I both know that there are *so many* leggings on the market that do neither. Until now: I just discovered the MOST flattering pair on the planet, that you will want to live in as soon as you try them: Spanx Faux Leather Leggings!

I recently received a pair to review. Now, mind you, I’m a healthy size ten with a decent amount of cellulite, so I’ve certainly had my unsuccessful attempts at wearing leggings. Especially too-cheap pairs that show every dimple and roll. Some are even see-through. Because of these past experiences I wasn’t expecting much, and especially not to find my new favorite going-out pants.

As soon as I pulled on the leggings, I was feeling them. Or, rather, I was feeling myself. The leggings have a Power Waistband, which is a fancy way of saying that shape your tummy and behind. They’re full coverage so you have absolutely no muffin top or spillover. They’re also made without a center seam, which means no more camel toe (for those of us who are prone to one–hear that, Khloe Kardashian??).

All of this adds up to a pair of leggings that makes you look like you’ve had some sort of plastic surgery recently. More specifically, a butt lift.

And a mere mortal like myself isn’t the only one who’s such a big fan: Hailee Steinfeld, Nina DobrevErin Andrews, Jennifer Hudson, Donatella Versace and more are all big fans of the stylish leggings:

“Spanx Faux Leather Leggings have a cult following!” Spanx found Sara Blakely told us of the popular pairs. “The magic of Spanx has been underneath clothes for so long, now it’s fun to see it on the outside.” Indeed!

“I get emotional when I see women in our apparel,” she continued. “My kids get so embarrassed and say, ‘Mom, leave her alone.’ And I say, ‘No, she’s wearing Spanx leggings… I have to high-five her!’ Right on.

Now it’s time for you to decide if you’ll be getting on board with these winners or not. What will you decide??
