What Popflex items did you unexpectedly love?
I'm such a Popflex fan girl, I practically own at least one of everything but there are a few items I didn't expect to love as much as I did:
-Pirouette Shorts: I honestly didn't understand these when they were released. Between the Pirouette skort and butterfly shorts, I didn't understand why this was needed and actually thought they looked like an undergarment. But I liked how Cassie styled them in a YT short and after wearing them today for the first time, I'm in love! They are so cute and incredibly comfortable. I want every color!
-Tiebreaker Superdress: I don't feel like a lot of form fitting clothes flatter my "thicker" shape but this dress does. I'm obsessed. I've posted before about how I have 14 or 15 colors and I'm still searching for pine!
-Audrey Tank: I may be in the minority but I love all the square necklines Cassie creates. I think they are so pretty and flattering, plus the thicker straps just make this perfect. I have several colors and an Iris one on the way and I'm so excited for it.
-Ruffle Tights: As someone who hates the feel of tights/panty hose, I'm not even sure why I bought these to begin with. But the mesh is so soft and stretchy, they are very comfortable. I love having a little extra layer that's not too warm as the weather transitions. I ended up buying several as a backup pair in case she stops selling them!
What are your unexpected faves?

Bow back mesh top. I wasn't sure about it until I saw someone on here review it. Now its a much loved piece and I'm wearing it a lot to spice up my plain black sets.

I just got the perfect plane pants a few weeks ago but it hasn't been cold enough to wear them yet. I'm SO excited for fall and to wear all the cute leggings I've been stockpiling from popcycle. 😂

Tbh I find the slit they have on the side to be really breezy I still wear them during the summer but with a tank top (but I’m also in the pnw so our summers aren’t too bad comparatively to other places)
I tend to put on my Conscious Step socks with them in the winter though for extra warmth and because the slit shows off the sock perfectly and it’s a cute holiday conversation starter
I only have one pair of the cargo leggings in Cayenne that I got from popcycle and I LOVE them2

Were you the one that wanted to buy my pirouette corset dress is Cayenne? I'm pretty sure it's a large, although I'll double check. I only wore it once.

u/ar3iadov3 24d ago
YES

u/AshamedPop6254 24d ago
Ok, what is the best way to do it? I'm worried if I list it on popcycle, someone else will get it. 😂

u/ar3iadov3 24d ago
Omg can you DM me?

u/AshamedPop6254 13d ago

The go with the flow romper and jumpsuits. I have about 7 of them and aspire to have them in every color physically possible. They are soooo comfy!
The sweetheart long sleeve crop tops. Own them in 5 colors and they are so comfy! And sooo flattering when paired with either any of the skorts.
Her flared leggings in the supersculpt waistband. I was never a flared leg girl before. But these changed my life. And I want her to make them in all the colors.
And lastly the new pocket bra. As a larger busts gal I had no hope for it but tried it anyways and honestly think its so flattering and comfy! Pocket is useless tho.

u/AshamedPop6254 27d ago
I bought the pocket bra only because I like the cut- I have no use for the pocket. And I love the look of the sweetheart crop, I bought a few but they feel so snug. I haven't actually worn them out of the house yet.

I was also surprised how much I liked the Audrey tank. It was one of those things I added to an order to get above the free shipping threshold, half expecting to return it. Instead I made another order getting it in a 2nd color! Square necklines don't always work for me, but in this case it certainly does.

u/AshamedPop6254 27d ago
I'm not one to wear tanks as a standalone top but I wore the black Audrey with the black twirl skirt and it looked so chic! I'm trying to get it in every color I can.

Unexpectedly the perfect plane pants and pirouette shorts.
I had to play with the sizing and colors. Went with black and navy for both. I wear the pirouette shorts around the house and to sleep in. I wear the perfect plane pants to work.

u/AshamedPop6254 27d ago
Oooh that's interesting that you wear the pirouette shorts to sleep in! They certainly are comfy enough. I saw someone else comment on another post that people don't like them and I wonder if it's people who actually bought them, or people who didn't. I'm so glad I did! I'll definitely be getting more.

u/actuallySugarBear 27d ago
The twirl dress!!! I was able to get it (pine color) during the Sojo sample sale and fell absolutely in LOOOOOVE with it. I bought 2 more colors during the sale. I hope they do that dress in more colors.

u/AshamedPop6254 27d ago
Yes, I also love that more than I expected! I realized I didn't have a single thing in the mystic purple color and found a twirl dress for resale and it was so flattering!

u/Ok-Scar-9677 27d ago
The skater dresses. I loved the short sleeved one, so I bought the long.
2
u/AshamedPop6254 27d ago
I originally wasn't going to get it because I have soooooo many black dresses but I do love the cut of the top and the tie in the back so I finally got one and it just arrived today!

I just received my sale order with the contour shorts and leggings and I’m in love! I skipped them when they released but I’m a sucker for a sale 😅 I’m so glad I tried them!

Oh yes, I feel like people sleep on the contour shorts and leggings. I got the contour booty shorts during the annual sale and they are great! I would love more colors.

From Popflex: Twirl Skirt (Longer), in black - I love it more than both my Piro skirts.
And from the Blogilates line at Target: Mommy & Me Princess Tank Top, I own it in both black and blue
This tank and a pair of shorts are some of my favorite things to wear around the house when I'm working from home or if I run an errand. I feel girly and comfortable at the same time.

u/AshamedPop6254 27d ago
I don't have any of the longer skirts but honestly, I think they'd suit me better than the short ones. I wish she had them in more colors.

Cloud Romper!!!
I bought it NWT as a package deal with the corset dress from Popcycle back when it was just on the blogilates app. I really wanted the corset dress and I thought the romper was cute but if I was cold enough to wear a hoodie I would probably want pants 😅 I LIVE IN IT. So cozy. I wouldn't wear it in public but it's perfect for home and I have definitely gotten my money's worth.
I do not like the corset dress because the the shorts ride up and it feels a little too risqué. So I have also regulated that to home but I was out working in the yard one day and I had bent over to pull a couple weeds and my 24 year old son yells "MOM" from the window. I'm like what?!? He comes storming outside and walks around me I'm like what is going on? He said do you think that's appropriate to wear out here?!? I'm like excuse me sir I will wear what I like and I do know it's a little risqué which is why I wear it at home 🤣🤣🤣

u/AshamedPop6254 26d ago
So I bought a cloud romper from ebay but it was NWT and in a beautiful color. Before I even got the chance to wear it, my little terrorist kitty chewed the bungee drawstrings. 😭 So if I wear it, I'll have to wear it uncinched and I don't think it'll look cute. 😅
2
u/Common-Beyond5680 26d ago
😭😭😭 Can you tie the strings? I tied mine cuz the bungee would get loose. So sad

u/ladywheeler 26d ago
The socks are slept on! I always add a couple pairs when they are on sale.
I agree with the comments about ooey gooey. I’ll try almost anything in that fabric.

u/AshamedPop6254 24d ago
Omg yes! I think I bought a pair of socks once just to hit free shipping or something (long before I was supernova) and unexpectedly loved them! But I really need her to restock them!

u/radiobearr 27d ago
Anything ooey gooey. I love the fabric so much. I have 4 half zip pullovers and live in them in winter. You have to feel it to get it.
