Marika Miracles Slimming Capri Legging With Tummy Control

As the owner of this site, I often have new product samples come across my desk from various promotional mailing lists. Some of these are expected, and some of them are surprises. One such surprise came in over the weekend when I received a complimentary pair of Marika Miracles Slimming Capri Leggings in the mail for my consideration. Although it was listed as being my size, I took one look at it and said, “There is no way that is going to fit.” It appeared to be too small for me, but not wanting to dismiss it out of hand, I tried pulling them on. To my pleasant surprise, not only did they fit, but they fit well enough for me to decide that I would try wearing them on my physiotherapy walk yesterday afternoon.

As the name suggests, these pants are designed to offer lift and support with the hopes of creating a more slender appearance, along with DryWik technology meant to help the material breath during workouts and other activity. Because these pants are meant to be activewear, I found that they are one of the most comfortable pieces of shapewear I’ve tried. Don’t get me wrong, these aren’t lounge pants, but the snugness feels more like firm support than being suffocated. I thought they would get uncomfortable during my walk, but I actually really enjoyed wearing them. I could feel the lift and support of the fabric while I wore them – this isn’t like a girdle that will cinch your waist or make big changes to how you appear, but the support makes me feel a little sleeker and sportier when I’m wearing them, if that makes sense. I thought these pants were quite flattering on my calves, which I liked. The capri length is perfect for spring – to think, just a few months ago I had to wear a big coat and scarf on my beach walks not to freeze!

These pants are really cute for working out, walks and hikes, and would also double as leggings under a dress. For me personally, I don’t feel comfortable wearing super tight workout clothes, and since these pants are very clingy, I wore a dress shirt over the top to add more coverage. My fashion inspiration for this look was “Christina Aguilera meets The Rolling Stones”. 😉

  1. Oh, these are cute. I have a similar looking pair that I like to jog in, but these look like they’d be more versatile than those. I’ve actually been looking for a good pair of leggings to wear under dresses this summer.
