Holiday (plus size) trousers for the shorter woman

13 replies

Northernlurker · 14/06/2015 21:01

5 ft 3, size 22. I am going to Barcelona in July Grin and I usually holiday in Scotland. Therefore I need some holiday trousers.........

Must be comfortable, multi purpose, easy to rinse out and drip dry (though I don't mind looking a bit crumpled) and cool...........

In an ideal world I'd like one slightly smarter long pair and one cropped pair.

Any suggestions?

TIA

Leggings & a frock much cooler.

Trousers - Next perhaps?

Northernlurker · 14/06/2015 21:30

I was thinking leggings and a frock/tunic too. I have an ample choice of summer options there Grin never bought trousers from Next. Do they do 22 then?

Have a look at Yours. Lots of cotton trousersSmile

Think they do aye. Not in petite however.

Good old M&S. And actually just back from Sainsburys who have a decent range too.

PinkGinny · 14/06/2015 22:03

Oh and ASOS have a range too.

Northernlurker · 14/06/2015 22:04

I can't face M&S trousers. Ideally I want super cheap and cheerful. I will explore.....

Or if you are going for trousers / leggings due to the dreaded chub rub try Sloggi long line pants and just the frocks.

[please don't be offended if your thighs glide friction free past each other mine sure don't. Smile

Not a white trouser person but the navy version of those look good......

The khaki ones are nice too. There are cropped versions too.
