These are good quality! I would say definitely order a little bit bigger than usual - even though the waistband is elastic, it's a little tight on me, and I bought my regular size. Hmm! Anyway, I'm trying to lose a little weight so they should get looser over time, haha.

*** edit:
Okay, I've been wearing these a lot since I bought them.
1. I accidentally wore them to yoga a few days ago and it worked out just fine! Any pants that can equally been worn to the office or to yoga are a plus tbh. Definitely not my favorite workout pants, but they did the job.
2. The only downside is the potential for cameltoe. Just...be safe out there. Wear a longer shirt with these bad boys if possible.
