My MANGO order came yesterdaaaaayyyy ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D.
For reference, I got the size small, my natural waist is 27", and my hips are about 37-38". They fit a teensy bit snugly in the arse, but they ARE leggings after all, and this would make sense given the measurements provided on their site. They still go up high enough on my waist to prevent any muffin toppage, which is MUY IMPORTANTE! I think if I had gotten them any bigger, the knees would have been bunchy and the ankles even more bunchy than they already are.
Please disregard my dirty mirror and the bad lighting. This was when I had just woken up and I couldn't be bothered with such things, but wanted to show you all, lol. Also, I cut off my head due to lack of makeup and bed head.
I'm not totally sure, but I THINK the leather panel isn't as wide as the Paige ones. I thought the Paige panel went all the way to the inseam, and these don't, but it doesn't really bug me. They are also really comfy, and since its not all "leather", actually breathable!
eta: You're shorter than me, right? Do you think I go small or medium? I'm a bit bigger than you and have a badonkadonk. I'm thinking medium? Are these cold wash/line dry material?
Wow, they will be so long on my 5'1" body. Can you take a pic of the waist? I may need the XS if you got the S. My natural waist is same but my butt is a little smaller than yours.

You can get them hemmed! What size is your waist? You may be better off in the small actually. Check out the measurements on the site though, they are accurate.

Those look awesome on you! Now I can't wait for my leather peplum top to come in from Nordstrom. I'm hoping they don't pull a Joanis and cancel like they did with her TB boots.
Mav, it's all you, but if this tops works it'll be perfect for Grace Potter and The Palm in October!
Cab, add something leather to your Vegas packing list STAT! You need some leggings, a cute top, or skirt. They have AC there, right?
