Posting here for traffic, out of desperation. I don't need to know if IABU, I just need suggestions :-)
I am cursed with long legs (yes, it is a curse, I spend my life with trousers flapping around my ankles) and am looking for good quality, smart black jeans. Preferably slim leg to look smart with a tailored jacket.
M&S - I can only find their Lily which I already have, and is 1" too short, the stretch has gone baggy, and they faded.
Mint Velvet - their lengths only go to 31"
Levi's - nothing in a 34 leg womens for a 34 waist (size 16). The minute you have 34" legs you are only allowed to have a 32" waist. I'm working on it but am mid 50's, menopause is against me!
Long Tall Sally - what they have has pretty bad reviews.
John Lewis - nothing coming up
Next - all seem to be out of stock, they have one pair of £26 XXLong which will probably be a stopgap but I would like to buy a decent quality pair to last.
Fatface - their Long is only 32"
Any other ideas? Would I be better giving up and going for cropped jeans and add mid calf DM type boots in the winter? Though that doesn't go with a tailored jacket....
Should I move to the Netherlands so I can shop more easily?
