Where can I get 'smart' cargo/utility type trousers?

I find them to be a good alternative to jeans but often they're a bit too casual. I'd like a pair in black, slate or khaki, slim, well fitting, appropriate for a curvaceous pear shaped size 10 mid 40's woman.

I've got a pair of grey skinny combats from dotty ps which fit the brief. But they are a weird shape, v big on the waist meaning you can get a bit of a willy shape around the crotch when you belt em in...Grin

That's more like it thank you Dancingqueen.
Sassy, I'll be avoiding DP then!Grin

Love the first Zara ones. Going to try on tomorrow.

Social let us know how you get on. I am never sure about Zara's sizes. Lovely trousers though.

Limited sizes but these boden ones are nice.

I've fot some Gap khakis in blue, I love them and they can definitely look smart enough.

I got the gap ones. I've never worn.
