I have now bought this in two colors for zoom days to pair with just some compression pants. On ‘fancy’ days, I pair them with a little scarf for fun. I’m 5’9″ and mine hits me mid thigh.

I’ve owned My BioFlect Leggings for One Hour, and I’m in Love.
I remember going to see the Nutcracker as a kid and having to dress up. My mom bought me some control top panty hose to wear with a dress to the event.
