Have you looked on asos.com? I get a lot from there - or Banana Republic

No and no, i will check them out thank you! I'm just being a moody cow, im also blessed with little legs which doesn't help but i know asos have a short arse dept. Smile

Have you tried M and S? I got my daughter some for waitressing and they were just a straight leg basic black trouser Smile

Sometimes it's the simplest things that are the hardest to get - so you can be as moody as you like - and yes, asos do have a petite section so fingers crossed you will find what you are looking for

Quietlygoingmad67 that's exactly what I'm after! Will check them also.

Many thanks.

I second M&S. I have great difficulty finding trousers that fit well (small waist, big hips and thighs, short in the leg!) after trying on nearly 20 pairs Angry in various shops, the first pair in M&S fitted. I nearly fainted with the shock!

I got decent boot cut ones from debenhams, the range is called 'the collection' I have the opposite problem as I'm tall and fat

What size are you and what's your budget?

Gap.co.uk have normal black work trousers in petite, in straight and boot cut.
