Can I tell you about these lovely h&m trousers...

I'm a size 14 and really, really struggle with finding decent trousers that don't feel like I'm being sawn in half and I can actually bend in.

So I ordered these from H&M in a medium, not expecting much and they're superb. They're comfy, don't cling in all the wrong places and look brilliant with a stripe jersey.

Not sure how they'll wash but I've picked up some lovely stuff from H&M recently.

Yep that's them. They don't look much in the photos admittedly.

I have these from Topshop which look similar but black. I love them and have worn them to work with a Breton top quite a few times. Very flattering Smile

I bought a similar pair in Uniqlo that had been recommended on MN but they were so long I had to have them altered.

The H&M ones are the perfect length and I'm 5ft 5.

What size to you need for a 14? M?

CateGory8 · 30/04/2017 23:38

I have the H&M ones in both black and navy. They are my go to trousers at the moment. Look great with brogues or trainers.Loving the pockets, can never seem to find trousers with pockets.

Shame they don't to different leg lengths. I'm tall and would need a 34" 😡

Am I the only one that looks at trousers like this and think they are the tapered leg trousers your mum would wear in the late 80's/ early 90's (pre bootlegs)?

Yeah I got a medium, which fit perfectly. Like I said, I've got no idea how they're going to wash like but for £20 I'm not expecting them to last years and years.

They're very similar to a pair I bought from Boden last year that cost a fortune and the zip broke after a few wears!

H&M sizing is so odd.

Those do look nice.

Are the Uniqlo ones still available? Can you link if they are?

BusterGonad · 02/05/2017 04:57

What I need are trousers like skinny jeans for work, with a long leg!

jeaux90 · 02/05/2017 12:15

French connection buster. 75 quid but really worth it, ones with the gold side zip

StepAwayFromTheEcclesCakes · 02/05/2017 12:37

the black H&M ones are reduced to £5.49 Shock now in my basket

BusterGonad · 02/05/2017 15:20

Thanks Jeaux I'll take a look! Wink
