Casual summer trousers that aren't jeans

[SolarEcrisp]

Can ask you what trousers you wear in summer that aren't jeans? Not smart - I don't need to dress smartly at work. I've tried chino type trousers but without the 'pulling in' effect of jeans they do tend to let my lower stomach balloon out very obviously so anything anyone's found to counteract that would be very useful! Thanks

Palazzo pants

Flat fronted chinos. I have some by GAP but they're not recent purchases.
Boden do flat fronted ankle grazers, not chino or denim.

Linen trousers. My stomach isn’t great either, I usually choose tops that cover half of the bit between my waist and crotch.

Looking for ideas what to wear to my 50th birthday party in May. Never wear dresses, usually wear smart top and black trousers (boring I know). Don't want to look frumpy or feel over dressed and uncomfortable. Thinking about red coloured top?? Size 22, big tum. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

I have same issue - need jeans style 5 pocket with no gathering , tie waist , or pockets on hips as I’m an apple with a tum.

I usually try for this sort of style

i just bought these and they fit well and look smart. I am size 16 and take a XL. I’ve found that longer tops really help with stomach bulge, or a long vest top under a shorter top.

Hush Washed Cargo Trousers £79

I bought these recently and they are really comfy and cool. I'm an 18 but the 16 fit perfectly.

I like harems, palazzos and magic trousers in white, stone and navy. I also wear camo trousers and wide leg crops.

MAGIC TROUSERS!! lightweight, cheap, flattering, super comfortable.

I quite like slim fit cropped trousers in summer - and seasalt's Albert Quay ones are really nice, with a handy bit of stretch in. www.seasaltcornwall.com/albert-quay-cotton-twill-crops-trousers

I wear some like these www.next.co.uk/g7656s1/u96667#u96667 or these www.marksandspencer.com/l/women/trousers/fs5/tapered-fit?originalPrice=20%2C120

Where do you buy magic trousers?

Definitely buy magic trousers - I get mine from eBay and Amazon. I have denim ones (think really light weight summer jeans but oh so comfy) as well as the plain and camo.

I also have the cotton joggers that are popular.
