I’m sure by now you are so sick of reading and hearing about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, I know I am!  Just a reminder prices go back up on August 7th, so if there is something you want make sure you buy it now!  Anyway, my favorite purchase from this sale are my Zella leggings.  I wore them on Instagram a few weekends ago and got so many questions about them that I really wanted to do a whole post about them (they are that good!)

I don’t know about you, but I am always on the hunt for the perfect workout, running around, lounging legging.  They are the first thing I change into when I get home, they make me look cute for my workouts and I basically live in them on the weekends.  You want to be comfortable after all!  In the past, I loved shopping at a certain athlesuire store that I will remain unnamed, but lately I haven’t found ANYTHING that I just had to have.  Strange, I know.  They have just gotten too expensive for me.  I mean they were expensive before, but I can’t justify spending $120 on leggings now and for something that I’m just not that crazy about.  And I don’t think their quality is worth the extra money.

Last year at the Nordstrom sale, I decided to try a pair of Zella leggings in an army green color because I couldn’t pass up the price.  And ever since then, they are my most favorite pair.  I have since bought them in a bright blue color (see them styled here), pink (see them styled here) and most recently I stocked up on basic black.

The best part of them is how they wash up.  They don’t loose their coloring, don’t shrink (I dry mine) and don’t pill.  They look exactly the same as when you put them in the wash, except that they are clean!  My other expensive pairs, tend to pill and not hold up as well.  They tell you to wash them separately- well who has time for that?!  And I love that they still hold their color.  The black is still very black and my colored ones still look just as vibrant as the day I bought them.  The high waisted version are my most favorite and right now they are on sale for only $35!!!!!  That is so inexpensive for a quality pair of leggings that you will wear at least once a week.

So, if you haven’t bought anything from the Nordstrom Sale yet, this is the ONE item that I am recommending.  They are just too good to pass up!

Have you worn Zella leggings before?  If so, what do you like about them?

Shop the look

    Love the leggings! I’ve pretty much been living in leggings and yoga pants, and can’t justify spending a fortune on a pair either. These seem perfect!
