Please can I share my trouser wardrobe after being fed up of skinnies?

Nothing I’ve found myself I must admit, but the fabulous wearable trews from Lucy&Yak - from another thread thank you!
And Zara slouch.... Zara have never fitted me downstairs before but these do. Please share yours too

Judy Thank you! Very helpful, especially on the sock styling tip.

I also work in a very casual environment (think tech rather than creative), so am trying to strike the balance between freshening up my style, without looking like I’m trying too hard!

I wasn't a fan of skinnies until the high waisted ones came along. I find them so much more comfortable because I am an hourglass shape - the lower waistlines used to dig into my hips. When I wear baggier jeans, friends comment that they look too big. I used to love peg trousers in the 80s, but always wore heels then. Would a peg style trouser in the current ankle grazer length, with flats, make legs look shorter and fatter? I will investigate!

I’ve got bored of skinnies too - haven’t worn them in at least a year, maybe more. I have wide leg cord culottes, really 70s wide-leg flared high-waisted jeans, mom jeans, ovoid jeans and straight jeans now! I did try the Zara ones on but they didn’t fit my bum/waist at once - Zara cut as if women have the same hip and waist size. I tend to wear them with fitted, tucked in or cropped jumpers or a thin tucked in blouse or long-sleeved t-shirt. I wear trainers or army boots mostly.

I like all the trousers but agree it's best to avoid puffy sleeves and stick with neat or cropped tops/jumpers.

Ps I love your Ash Virgins OP
