Cream 3/4 leg linen (poss) trousers

Can you help me find 3/4 leg trousers - straight ish, not wide, not slim? I think I'd like lined. If they're a bargain, even better - I'm losing weight so hopefully won't fit next year. I've got two linen pop over shirts in khaki and chartreuse I want to wear them with. I'm a size 16 and only 5ft tall but I can shorten them.

Are these short enough?

@Sheffieldissunny hmm yes I wanted more mid calf I think but open to suggestions. They are more pricey than I wanted though - I was hoping £30 but would go to £50. I'll only get a few weeks wear out of them 😊

Mmm I though they might be. These are much cheaper at £17.99 but are the same length and not 100% linen so hopefully someone else kind find something more suitable

Try Cotton Traders. They have loads.

Although I've never seen lined ones - sort of defeats the point of (cool) linen trousers doesn't it?

@Sheffieldissunny perhaps I'm searching for the holy grail - I guess I wanted a smoother waistline so I can wear these linen shirts out - perhaps with a French tuck?
@CharlotteSt thar was why I said possibly linen. I guess I'm worried about them being thin and showing my awful thighs

id go cheap if you know they’re just temporary, I love this site for cheap basics to put me on

I brought some from Boden as they do petite, they are high waisted though and slightly cropped

Thanks all for suggestions. I've just found a pair on ebay so fingers crossed they are OK. Ages to wait to finish though so the sun will probably be gone by the time I get them. 😀
