Oprah’s Favorite Things List 2023 dropped yesterday, but I woke up today, and it’s still on my mind. (I think I even dreamed about it?) And that’s probably for a plethora of reasons — the most obvious being that holiday season is upon us, and with that, gifting is on my mind. I consider myself to be a pretty good gift giver; I take notes of what my loved ones say they want throughout the year, unbeknownst to them, and then surprise them with that exact thing when the time to exchange presents comes around. But Oprah’s extensive list is on my mind for another reason, too: It featured that buttery-soft lounge set that my entire family is obsessed with, and I think I need another one.

The brand behind said loungewear? Spanx, of course. The label is no stranger to gracing the coveted list that Oprah releases every November, with it’s Perfect Pants making the cut, and now, its game-changing, always-selling-out AirEssentials Set is back for the second year in a row. And I couldn’t agree more.

Oprah really said it best “Wow. Wow. Wow. May I tell you I got this set last year? I wore it in a photo shoot for O Quarterly and never looked back. This is the most comfortable fabric — now in new sophisticated colors,” she told Oprah Daily. I know my mom and sister would 100 percent agree withOprah’s statement. And the second you put it on, you’re going to “wow!” too. That’s how unbelievably soft it is. 

The Oprah-favorite Spanx set is made from the brand’s game-changing spacer fabric you have to feel to believe. If you think you’ve tried pillowy-soft loungewear, you actually haven’t — that is, until you’ve put on this AirEssentials duo. It feels oh-so silky against your skin, it’s incredibly lightweight yet warm, and it offers four-way stretch for maximum comfort. It’s no wonder the brand has incorporated the AirEssentials fabric into a slew of other standout pieces, like an AirEssentials Dress and an AirEssentials Turtleneck Tunic, that are equal parts elegant and comfy. A win! 

But the best find of all is probably these wide-leg pants from the collection that just so happen to be on sale ahead of Black Friday, marked down to $83. As you’d expect, sizes are selling out, so if you want to try something from the Oprah-approved collection for a little less, scoop them up, stat.

What’s more, plenty of other standouts are already on sale at Spanx ahead of its highly anticipated post-Thanksgiving sale, like two pairs of Perfect Pants, a sporty jogger version and a stylish back-seam skinny that’ll look so good with sneakers or heels — your pick! There’s also the brand’s ultra-flattering Perfect Fit and Flare dress that will make you question all your other dresses and breezy, crepe trousers that look as sleek as pants get but are 20 times more comfortable. 

My advice? Shop the Oprah-worn set first, because it’s going to sell out now that she crowned it her favorite again. Then, check out the sale section for even more flattering finds.
