Please help me find myself again!

[Upsider]

Trying to build myself back up. I either don’t go out, hide under a coat or rely on one dress that is passable if the coat needs to come off. It needs to change. I have very short legs (I have to roll petite trousers up) with rather large thighs and find it impossible to find trousers that fit well. I do have a waist but also housing the dreaded mum pouch at the moment. Size 16. 5”3. What do I wear?
Plan at the moment is to put together three outfits so I can at least push myself to go out. Any help welcome and appreciated

Don’t know where you are, OP, but I found out recently that Uniqlo offer tailoring on their bottoms in store!

I find new look jeans brilliant for short legs if that helps? They come in leg measurements so not just "short, standard, tall".

Also elasticated cuffs are great on some styles of trouser. And having standard trousers taken up at a seamstress is cheaper than you'd think x

Thanks I’ll take a look at those.
