If leggings aren't the answer, what is?

Am three months post CS and still have weird flabby puckered tummy but am trying to sort out my wardrobe. During pregnancy I wore lots of black Uniqlo leggings- I had some before for going for walks etc but looked in the mirror today and definitely not flattering!

What is the trouser option that works when you have a tummy, want to be comfortable but still want to look stylish. Have to go high waisted to contain the bulge but jeans are never really comfy enough. Might be stuck with this post CS tummy forever...

re: the Lucy & Yak Alexas, the waistband is very stretchy so you can easily size down one or even two sizes if you want a slimmer fit. I'm generally a 12 (sometimes 14) and my Alexas are mostly size S and a couple of pairs in size M (I basically wear them most days so have quite a few pairs by now!). I find they give me a really nice shape and make my waist look smaller due to the extra volume around hips and thighs.
