Lululemon Align tights review: Say goodbye to the front seam
Lululemon fans have been begging for this change for years – and now, the cult activewear brand has finally delivered. These products are hand-picked by our team to help make shopping easier. We may receive payments from third parties for sharing this content and when you purchase through links in this article. Product prices and offer details are not assured, and should be confirmed independently with the retailer. Learn more I've been a diehard fan of Lululemon's Align leggings for years. They are, hands down, the comfiest tights I've ever worn, perfect for a yoga and pilates girly like me or just lounging at home (aka my official WFH uniform). If you're one of the millions who swear by Align (welcome to the club), you probably think they're just about perfect. Well, almost. For years, fans have been begging Lululemon to ditch the front seam. And guess what? Lululemon has finally answered our prayers and released a long-awaited seamless version of the beloved Align pants. Ten years after the original Align launched and became one of Lululemon's most beloved collections (pro tip: the Align Tank Top is equally amazing), they've levelled up with the Align No Line – and yes, they absolutely live up to the hype. I put the new Align No Line leggings to the test to see how they stack up against the OGs (you can read my review here) and more importantly, whether they're really as flattering and camel-toe-free as promised. Spoiler: I have no notes. They're everything I wanted – buttery soft, insanely comfortable and seriously flattering. If you're even thinking about it, trust me: these are the tights you need. Because they might just be the perfect pair of leggings. $139 at Lululemon HOW WE TESTED LULULEMON ALIGN NO LINE PANTS At checkout, it's our mission to help you make informed shopping decisions. To ensure you buy the right product at the best price, we rigorously test products so you don't have to. I wore these leggings to multiple yoga and pilates classes over the past month and let me tell you, some of those sessions were intense. Trust me, I really put these leggings through its paces. I also wore them while working from home, spending long hours at my desk (hello, office life) to see how they held up in terms of all-day comfort. WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE ALIGN AND ALIGN NO LINE? The Align No Line leggings have the same ultra comfy fit and feel as the classic Align you know and love, just without the front rise seam, giving the pants a smoother, more flattering look. Like everything in the Align collection, it's made from Lululemon's signature Nulu fabric – a buttery soft, weightless blend of nylon and elastane that's breathable, sweat-wicking, and offers four-way stretch. That second-skin feel? Still very much there! You'll also find the same high-rise waistband with a hidden pocket that lies flat against the body. The Lululemon Align No Line tights are priced at $139. It is $10 more than the original Align pants, which is due to the more intricate manufacturing and stitching techniques required to achieve that seamless, no front line finish. HONEST VERDICT: SHOULD YOU BUY THE LULULEMON NO LINE ALIGN? I never used to mind front seams on leggings, until I tried the Align No Line. As someone who owns the OG Align's, I can now confidently say the seamless design makes a real difference. It gives a sleeker, smoother and more flattering look that hugs the body beautifully. And can confirm, there's zero risk of camel toe. In terms of comfort and performance, these live up to the Align reputation. They're ridiculously soft, weightless and move with you like a second skin – perfect for low-impact workouts like yoga and pilates or just lounging at home. The high-waisted band sits flat without digging in or rolling down and they're breathable enough to wear during hot yoga (no visible sweat marks on my black pair!). My old Align leggings have started to fray after years of wear so I'm glad I've found a worthy – and improved – replacement. The Align No Line offers everything I loved about the original, with the added bonus of a cleaner, more flattering fit. They've officially become my go-to leggings, and yes, I barely notice I'm wearing them. If you're looking to upgrade your Aligns or want leggings that combine comfort, style and performance, the Align No Line are absolutely worth it.

Wild reason Shaquille O'Neal wants to live in infamous village
Shaquille O'Neal has revealed his 'dream' is to retire in Florida's infamous community, The Villages, to discover if the sordid rumours about what goes on there are true. The 53-year-old NBA legend has been sharing his pro insights as a sports analyst on 'Inside the NBA' and his podcast, 'The Big Podcast', which he co-hosts with Adam Lefkoe. O'Neal and Lefkoe recently welcomed boxing icon Mike Tyson to their studio and lifted the lid on what they want their future to look like, Realtor reports. The former Los Angeles Lakers star revealed that he is looking forward to settling down in one specific place after he retires. When Lefkoe asked O'Neal what his 'dream retirement scenario' is, the basketball icon said he already had a plan in place that saw him living the rest of his days at The Villages — the retirement community that has become known for its wild goings-on and STD reports. The athlete began by noting that he always thinks about the fact that he has 'seven summers' left until he is 60. Tyson chimed in, 'That's how you have to think about, and then you have to ask yourself, 'What am I going to do at the end of my seventh summer?'' 'I tell my kids all the time that I don't want them taking care of me,' O'Neal, who shares children Shareef, 25, Amirah, 23, Shaqir, 22, and Me'arah, 19, with ex-wife Shaunie, said. He also has a stepson, Myles, 28, from Shaunie's former marriage. He also shares daughter Taahirah, 29, with ex-girlfriend, Arnetta Yardbourgh. O'Neal then lifted the lid on where he hopes he will spend his days after ringing in age 65. 'The dream scenario is: There's this place called The Villages. The Villages is an old folks' home, but they have the highest rate of STDs. I want to be there. 'When I get to 65 and I can't move, take me down to Ocala, Florida. Just drop me off, my boy,' the hoops star said. Last year, US Census data revealed that The Villages was the nation's fastest-growing metro, growing 4.7 per cent between 2022 and 2023. The purpose-built community offers its residents a wide array of amenities, including 3,000 social and special-interest clubs as well as activities like square dancing, drama, water ballet, belly dancing, precision golf cart driving, cheerleading, and tambourine tapping. There are also 14 country clubs, 17 pools, and 100,000 golf carts. Adding to The Villages' appeal is its access to all of the community amenities — gyms, pools, rec centres, softball fields, golf courses, clubs, and activities — are available for a fee of $US199 ($A305) per month, no matter the size of a resident's home. However, while the community is advertised as a thriving 'backdrop where you can live life to the fullest,' it is The Villages' residents and its bustling social scene that have attracted the most attention over the years. Many reports and rumours have emerged about the reportedly risqué scene that has emerged inside The Villages. The community made national headlines in 2006, when WFTV news reported that its Women's Center had seen an enormous uptick in the number of cases of sexually transmitted diseases. 'One physician at the Women's Center of The Villages said even in her years working in Miami, she has never seen so many cases,' the report stated. This quote went viral, and the community quickly became known as the 'STD Capital of America,' despite subsequent reporting calling attention to the fact that there was no accurate data to back up these rumours. Still, the stain of scandal has persisted inside The Villages ever since — with more fuel added to that fire when reports began to surface, suggesting that a group of swingers living in the community were using 'loofah signalling' in order to publicly express their sexual preferences to other residents. That rumour has been traced back to a riff made by comedian Tora Himan, an Orlando-area drag queen who previously performed at The Villages as part of a cabaret show. A similar whisper that ran rampant involved upside-down pineapples. That scandal saw people on the web claiming that upside-down pineapples in The Villages were a way to signalise swinging. In addition to big plans for his retirement, O'Neal boasts an impressive real estate portfolio, holding the keys to a slew of multimillion-dollar properties in Texas, Florida, California, Georgia, and Nevada.
