DD (14) need very cheap red trousers for a costume; any idea where I can find them?

Ideally trousers not leggings but softer material rather than jeans as she must dance in them

I'm off to look now (none at Matalan)

Tesco had some skinny red jeans in the kids' section today (up to 13-14), also red leggings.

Debenhams has some red leggings, know you said ideally trousers but if can't find.

KatyMac · 21/01/2012 13:23

Her red top (which we have already) is very short & when she wears leggings I like her bum covered

Something cheap and pale-coloured in the right sort of fit and material, and then a packet of red Dylon?

Maybe a smart set of pyjamas with red bottoms, if you can't find what you are looking for.

Charity shops?

KatyMac · 21/01/2012 13:53

PJs a great idea

Notime for charity shops unfortunately as I'm poorly Sad Internet all the way

Get well soon,

Oxfam online is good, like eBay, you can search for specific size, brand etc.

I have some pillar box red trousers in an 8. They are bootleg cut, made of very stretch stuff which is ideal for dance work, with a slightly textured finish, a bit shiny. I hope this doesn't make them sound to horrible, they are not.

Anyway I was going to ebay them but would be happy to post them to you if you think they'd fit your DD. I was hoping to get around £4 for them.
PM me if you're interested.

Thanks for the link - they don't have any but I'll book mark it for next time

KatyMac · 21/01/2012 14:24
