I am overweight and am transitioning to full length dresses and skirts for attire. I found these and was pleased with the price. They took a while to actually arrive. The fabric is nice and smooth. I wore a pair today under a skirt, we are under a blizzard warning, and they block the cold quite well. I do have a complaint about the pants though... the back of the pants fits just fine, however the front of the pants fit as if they are maternity pants, which is not how these were sold. I am going to have to modify the pants so they fit like normal pants without the front being able to cover up to my bust which is strange.
