I'm guessing mine we're a different brand. I have purchased from both Athleta and Skirtsports because they both make small tall sizes. The skirts on mine were loose and didn't "hug my butt". If I could find something that was more body con, it could work. </p> <p>Unless a skirt is "butt hugger" it would be a nuisance for Pilates, because it could hang down and snag in the springs of a reformer. </p> <p>It would be nice to find a skirted legging that I could wear for my workouts because I could more easily put on a cover up and look polished afterwards if I wanted to head out to get breakfast with a friend, or even go to the grocery store. Right now, I wouldn't dare go out in my exercise gear. I completely change before heading out into the community! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-got-the-butt-vest/page/2#post-1617095 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 04:32:49 +0000 Bijou 1617095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks to Una for linking Suz's post, I really enjoyed reading the thread and can now understand the reactions to Angie's purchase. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-got-the-butt-vest/page/2#post-1617055 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 03:20:40 +0000 Suz 1617055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness!

The skirts I favor are actual pull on skirts in a stretchy knit. They are not attached and they do not have shorts underneath. They were sold at Kohl's, which promoted them for yoga and called them something like "run around" skirts. I don't yoga but these are perfect for my type of workouts. I like feeling more covered up, even though the skirts are only 17 inches.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-got-the-butt-vest#post-1616933 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 23:23:24 +0000 Anonymous 1616933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Style Fan: When I started yoga, my arms would shake and I couldn't hold down dog, do plank, etc. Now I can do all that most of the time.

Actually it's one that LisaP recommended last year.</p> <p>I usually wear fitted clothing for exercise. It just varies in length, heaviness and layers depending whether I'm inside or outside and the season.</p> <p>My clothing problem in yoga happens if I wear a top that doesn't stay in place when I am doing downward facing dog or inversions. Sometimes I think they will, but they don't. And of course with Lulu, once you've sweated in them, you're done. (Nike and Athleta have nice, flexible returns policies if a garment doesn't suit you.)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-got-the-butt-vest#post-1616869 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 20:12:29 +0000 Anonymous 1616869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can no longer remember where I've parked my car, what I went down to the basement for, what that person's name is , where I put my keys and phone , or what my cell number is , but I DO remember the butt vest . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-got-the-butt-vest#post-1616864 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 20:07:40 +0000 Angie 1616864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for sharing your yoga outfits, ladies. Very interesting. Unless it's heated yoga, I don't know how you can wear sleeveless tanks to class. I would freeze!&nbsp;</p> <p>Jennifer, you can't do yoga in skirted leggings with a longer skirt! You need the skirt to be "crotch-scraping" and very short, like the ones I bought.&nbsp;</p> <p>(Ladies, like I mentioned earlier, the skirt on these leggings stays put. I assure you. You don't fuss with it at all).&nbsp;</p> <p>Una, thanks for chiming in! What a GREAT description and chuckle we've had, and continue to have about the butt vest.</p> <p>Karie, I'm excited about your sewing project.&nbsp;</p> <p>Smittie, you're right.

Thanks for this reminder, Angie! I was on the fence about buying some Zella ones I saw at Nordstrom, thinking they might go on sale. Then I never checked back. I wear Zella move-it pants, leggings, or bootcut yoga pants for Pilates. In summer, I wear capri leggings or move-it shorts or capris. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-got-the-butt-vest#post-1616857 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 19:51:03 +0000 rachylou 1616857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe I should have another look at the butt vest.
