Biden 7/8 trousers

Hi, has anyone got the Richmond or Hampshire 7/8 trouser and can give some feedback? I'm 5"9 and a size 12, going back to work after children and moving from a corporate world to a 'smart/casual' school setting. I'm looking for a trouser I can essentially dress up or down, wear with slip on smartish shoes in warmer weather. Perhaps throw a jacket on to smarten it up when required or a more smart/casual top/blouse for everyday. I do want to be comfortable and think the Hampshire looks more comfy but am put off by one of the reviews saying they are essentially thick leggings as, if that were the case, I wouldn't want to wear a short top - with leggings I feel the bottom and upper thigh should be covered!! Hope that makes sense - any reviews on these welcome Smile

Gaaa it's the hampshires I kept not the richmonds they were too low waisted!

Haha. I was just coming back on to ask you about the Richmonds! The Hampshires are ridiculously comfy aren't they?! And especially if I can lose my twin-mum-tum will look good (I hope!). Maybe I should go for the ankle grazer look - I know that's how they're supposed to look just can't stop thinking they look shrunk!!

I'm sending a pair of Richmonds back. Way too long.
