What makes these faux-leather leggings special? For one, they feature the brand's signature power waistband designed to make you look slimmer, compress, contour and hug you in all the right places, and they have a glossy finish that looks effortlessly chic. Another thing I love about these faux leggings is how versatile they are—team with a T-shirt and a pair of sneaks for a casual look or some heels and a flowy blouse for date night. (Bonus: They pull on and won't give you a camel toe, and they're available in petite, regular, tall and plus sizes.)

But don't take my word for it, here's what one buyer said about them: "Seriously. I will never buy another pair of real or faux-leather leggings. These make your legs look great, suck in any lower belly fat and hold your booty up! I'm 5'4, 135 pounds, and a size 27 in jeans. I ordered a medium in these, and they are great."
