Work trousers which look like leggings but are not leggings

I had two identical £25 pairs from next which have lasted a good year but they’ve now lost their elastic at the waist... they fit like leggings on the leg, thick material with a seam down the front but have a zip and poppers at the waist to prove they are trousers and therefore conform to my work dress code of no leggings Grin they are warm, comfy, and fit inside ankle boots. Next don’t do this style anymore and I can’t see anything similar!

Watching!! I need the exact same thing to comply with my work dress code.

Can't help but I'm looking for the same!

I saw some recently in M&S, although it was in one of their outlet stores so I'm not sure if they do similar in the 'main' shop. But they were like 'smart' jeggings.

I got a pair from Dorothy Perkins earlier in the year for DD (sixth form has to have 'office wear').

I just tried some on in Reiss with a side zip. They were pricey though. £130 I think.

peachypetite they are EXACTLY what I am looking for - out of stock in a size 8 and 10 but I’ll keep checking back...

Do you have a local store? Glad to help!

I like the New Look ones peachey and the Reiss ones are a bargain! Sorry to hijack your thread OP, I have been looking for similar.

This is what I wear to work too.

I got mine in Dorothy Perkins

I had a similar pair from ASDA. They still sell them, here:

They are soooooo comfy.

littlelama thank you, I’ve just ordered two pairs of these in an 8 because they’re out of stock in a 10 - however I find asda come up quite big on things especially the waist so I’ll see how they are!

My local M&S also has stock of the ones you suggested choppota so I’ll head there on my lunch break tomorrow.

Zara do these in loads of colours. I have navy ones with stripes at the side, everyone always asks where I got them, so comfy and neat.
