Miraclebody Jeans Review & Giveaway



Over the years my body has changed, especially after two pregnancies. Gone are the days where I could throw on an outfit without giving it a second thought or glance. Now I find that I have to try on several things before deciding which shirt lays just right (one that's not too loose or too tight, not too long or too short, etc) or which pair of pants will hide all my flaws. Although it takes more effort now, I still want to dress nicely and feel confident in what I'm wearing. That's why I was thrilled when I came across Miraclebody!
Brought to you by the makers of Miraclesuit, the #1 brand designer of control swimwear, Miraclebody provides women of all shapes and sizes, comfortable form-flattering fashion control apparel including things like jeans, tops, skirts and leggings - all of which are designed to make you look 10lbs lighter in 10 seconds! Who doesn't want that, right?!

I was really excited when I found out that I was going to have the opportunity to review a pair of their Samantha Boot Cut Jeans w/ Classic Pocket!

Features:
  • 10” Mid-rise: sits on the hips to create curves, higher in the back for additional rear coverage
  • Boot cut: subtle flair in the leg helps creates a balanced appearance
  • Embroidered pockets: Classic style, designed to give the illusion of a slimmer backside
  • 98% Cotton, 2% Spandex: comfortable fit with breathe-easy stretch
  • 32” Inseam: regular length
  • Machine washable: inside out, gentle cycle
  • Made in the USA of imported fabric
I have to admit that I haven't always had the best of luck shopping for clothes online for myself. I have a difficult time determining which size to get. Even when trying jeans on in the store, it can be difficult to find the right size, so I was especially nervous about picking a size having never tried them on before. At first I considered choosing a size bigger than I normally wear, just to make sure they would fit. However, after thinking about it long and hard, I decided they have a size chart for a reason and decided to get the size it recommended based on my measurements. I am SO glad I did!

When the jeans arrived, I was very excited to check them out. As I opened the box I instantly loved the darker wash. It's something that can easily be dressed up or dressed down.

I couldn't help but notice the Miraclebody signature logo on the rivets and button, as well as on the waistband. It gives it a nice finishing touch.

Of course, the big question wasn't whether or not I loved the way they looked, that was answered the moment I saw them...it was how (or if) they'd fit! When I put them on I was incredibly happy...they fit perfectly! I was amazed with how comfortable they were. From my experience, slimming jeans are not always the most comfortable so this was a pleasant surprise.

The premium Lycra denim seems like really great quality, and best of all, the blend of cotton and spandex control fabric shapes and slims the thighs and lifts the rear. They also have a front control panel in the unique miracle fabric, Miratex, to help flatten and control the tummy...yay! I was amazed how slimming these jeans are. I know the slogan is 'Look 10 lbs Lighter in 10 Seconds' but I had to try them on to believe it.

I have found them to be comfortable and slimming. I really like the boot cut style and the way the subtle flair helps to balance out my hips. They are a bit long for me, but at only 5'3" this is something I'm used to. I prefer jeans to be longer than too short anyways, and usually wear tall enough shoes where it is not an issue. I noticed that the waist is higher than what I'm used to...but I love not having to worry that every time I bend over to pick up one of my kids, or reach up for something in the cupboard that my stomach or back will be exposed. It's amazing how much confidence a pair of jeans can give you when they're made to give such a flawless look that's comfortable and stylish.

If you're looking for a pair of jeans that are stylish and slimming, I would suggest looking into Miraclebody and their selection of boot cut, straight and skinny jeans!

  66. Most definitely the Samantha classic pocket because they are boot cut. I only buy/wear book cut jeans. They definitely are more flattering on almost every figure, not to mention that they don't draw excessive attention to your shoes, so you can wear them with comfortable sneakers, and boot cut even makes your feet look smaller.
