High-Rise Leggings You'll Want to Live In

Give a lady a pair of high-rise leggings and she can conquer the world one yoga class, coffee shop, grocery store, lounging around day at a time. Make them in a breathable fabric that feels like butter, add side pockets, and you have the recipe for leggings you’ll want to live in every single day.

I’ve been in the market for a new pair of high-rise leggings so the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale seemed like the perfect time to get some. I had heard great things about Zella leggings so I decided to give them a try. There were lots of cute options on sale but I opted for the Live In High Waist Pocket 7/8 Leggings. They were on sale for under $40 which I thought was an awesome deal! [PS - Nordstrom Anniversary Sale runs through Sunday 8/4 so snag these before they are full price!]

The moment they arrived in the mail I immediately tried them on…and fell in love. The fit could not have been more perfect, the fabric was so soft, and the overall comfort level was through the roof. I’d be lying if I said I haven’t worn them every single day at some point since I got them they are that good! I love the side pockets to easily put your phone or credit card in while you’re on the go, the 7/8 length is perfect and hits at exactly the right spot, and the high waist stays put which is a huge bonus. Also they fully pass the “bend and snap” see-through test with flying colors!

So whether you are heading to your weekly yoga or workout class, stopping by the local coffee shop, running errands, or just lounging around the house, these Zella Live In High Waist Pocket 7/8 Leggings will be the perfect thing to take you from here to there.

For reference, I’m 5’3” and 115lbs and wear the XS in these leggings; they run TTS.
