32 Pieces Of Clothing And Accessories Reviewers In Their 40s Love

These tend to fit small due to the compression, so you may want to size up in these, especially if you’re usually between sizes. I have these exact leggings and am usually between a medium and large, and the large fits me comfortably with just the right level of tightness!

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Heather Braga says, “I splurged on these, and I don’t know why I waited so long! They’re super soft on the inside, edgy on the outside, and just freakin’ fabulous. I love pairing them with an oversized sweater for a look that’s stylish but still cozy during the winter, and wearing them with a denim jacket and a graphic tee in spring and fall.” 

Promising reviews: “A 40-year-old here…these are amazing. I ordered a size small, and was afraid because they looked soooo small out of the bag, but let me tell you, they [look great]. Sooo in love with these!!!” —Leslie P.

“I absolutely love these and I am so glad I added them to my wardrobe. I dress them with a blouse and heels, T-shirt and tennis shoes, or button-up and flat. There’s so many possibilities. I love the look and feel. The support is amazing. I’m 42-years-old.” —Vera M.
