Wouldn't short adults be Ok? DD is 11 and I don't bother with kids clothes much anymore. She has loads of cheapo Primark ones which are thin and pant-showing, but she wears long tops. M and S indigo range are the best IMO.

I was going to say Uniqlo but they don't seem to have that size in stock atm. Ladies size 6 cropped? Market?

Is she tall? I got Next age 11 and age 12 years from the shop (I was about to turn away as only smaller sizes on display but very helpful assistant asked what I wanted and they had them out the back). Nice and thick, good quality, £5.50.

Or h&m always seems to have loads, 3 for 2. Also try New Look very small adult sizes.

Sainsburys usually have decent leggings for girls. Or adults size 4 or 6 might be worth a try?

Uniqlo S and XS (in the styles that go that small) should fit a 13yo.
