I've searched for posts but they're mostly old links to clothing, so, plus size friends (UK 20 here) can you link any nice, comfortable, not awful looking trousers? I live in leggings but im returning to work soon post mat leave and probably need to get out of my saggy, bobbly leggings.

Oh and not overly pricey either, mat leave pay isnt my friend.

Thanks!

M&S do some jersey wide leg trousers which are really comfortable but only £17.50. They do shrink though so maybe buy a longer length and wash them a couple of times before you hem them if you're shorter like me.

M and S do loads of all sorts - the jeans are good (I like eve) and so are the cords. They also have loads of ‘work’ trousers. I have tried the jersey the PPs mentions and they are also fine, albeit a bit house loungey.

white stuff / fat face do cotton trousers which are casual smart

seasalt do a few cotton and cord. Some of their linen and cotton would be too casual probably.

Sainsbury wide leg jersey grey pull on trousers. They are £12 and I love mine. They look much more expensive and i team them with an H and M satin shirt.

Marks and spencer autograph wool and silk. £70 but I've worn mine twice a week for three years. I wash mine in wookite on the wool programme.
I am a 20 and have been wearing these in 18-24 for 8 years.
Sometimes available on ebay.
I wear with a fancy t shirt or blouse and a bright jacket.

Thank you everyone, gonna order a few pairs.

Do the wide leg ones only look good with certain footwear?

Just thought I'd come back and say I now live in the marks and Spencer wide leg trousers, thanks @theduchessofspork
