Monsoon! My work colleague has just got a lovely pair - £40.

Mango. Cheap as chips (especially if you go to the outlet website) and loads of colours and styles. They are good quality and fit well.

I bought a good pair from Gap last week - dark navy and they also do black. They have a slight stretch and look quite elegant. 30% off online at the moment.

Just to intrude. Which ones from Gap are they Anne?

Sonotkylie · 07/09/2013 08:24

Gap slim crop trousers do it for me. And you take your usual size ...!

M&S Autograph, the wool mix ones machine washable

The Gap ones I bough are called True Straight. I found the sizing quite generous - I'm usually 10, but got into the 8 and they're still slightly roomy on the waist. If in doubt, size down.

Thank Anne. I actually have them in black, from last year. Didn't know they did them in navy. Would love navy. They're quite good aren't they, but they do fade a bit (cos they're cotton). I still have my 30% off so will scuttle over.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 07/09/2013 17:18

I didn't get on with the Gap ones at all. They seem to attract every piece of fluff within a five mile radius.

I have excellent ones from Cos and The White Company (sales).

lurkingaround · 07/09/2013 17:58

They do pick up a but of fluff Remus but i give them a roll of the sticky roll thingy before I leave the house and they seem to be fine for the day. Can't find the navy Gap ones, they're there in 'flint grey' which I would love but sold out in most sizes. Must keep my eye out for Cos ones. I've seem people liking the Me and Em ones too.

[Blush] Oops sorry the italics Remus, gosh, it looks a bit sneery, meant to 'bold' it.

Screwfox · 07/09/2013 18:14

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 07/09/2013 18:16

:) It didn't feel sneery!

Annebronte · 08/09/2013 11:55

I can't see the navy online either. I bought them in one of the London stores last week.

Next and, randomly, river island too on occasions.

i really like these types of trousers but haven't been brave enough to wear them yet. im not very good with court type shoes. and you wouldn't be able to wear boots with them sure you wouldn't? maybe a shoe boot? maybe ill stick to my straight cut boot trousers! but i do love the look. especially the satin effect slim trousers for a night time look.

FoxyHarlow123 · 12/09/2013 12:52

Why not brave enough? They're really flattering!

ofcoursethisisanamechange · 12/09/2013 14:46

I'm specifically looking for a brown pair- anyone seen any? Gap don't do brown... thanks
