I tried leggings a while back with little to no success, but now that I have a few more tunics and dresses that could benefit from their use, I'm willing to give them another shot. And I think I finally realize that if I want a premium product I need to be willing to shell out a premium price.

Here's the deal though. I'm short, and pear shaped, so they have to have the right amount of give to make it up to my waist, and enough stretch to stay there. The cheaper leggings I tried before from Kohl's were too stretched out once they'd scaled my thighs and hips to actually stay up.

And I need coverage. Although my derriere will always be properly covered by a longer top, I can't handle something that ends up looking like tights. (The horror!)

So, anyone know what magical fabric content I should be looking for? And where might one actually find these miraculous leggings should they actually exist?
