Help, I don't know what to wear on my bottom half anymore...

I'm nearly 43, and have put on about 8kg in the last 6 months. Mostly around my middle area, joy. I think I've accepted this is my new shape/size as have come off antidepressants, still exercising, eating the same.
Still a size 10 for the most part, but probably a 12 waist. So, I need to buy new trousers but I have no idea what to get. All the high waisted 100% cotton jeans are terrible on me, as what fits around the waist is then huge everywhere else.
My legs are my best bit, so if I wear anything too loose on the bottom, I just look loads bigger than I am. I'm also quite tall, 5'8" and want full length not cropped I think. I guess I am probably looking for jeans with a good elastane content!!!
Just wondering if anyone out there is in a similar position and has found some holy grail jeans/casual trousers that might fit the bill? I don't mind spending a bit for a really good pair.
Thank you all.
