Casual trousers for weekends that are warm, long, stylish and suitable for a 40+ year old woman

[CyclopsElf]

Today I realised my skinny jeans are just not what I feel like wearing on the weekends any more. I want something looser, more comfortable, warm and probably/possibly stretchy. Certainly with give in them.

I have been looking all day and I'm still completely unsure where to start. Next, M&S and New Look are easy to collect from but also happy to try any other brand.

I have long legs (35 inches) and these days prefer a high waist as, although I'm a 12, I carry any extra weight on my tummy.

I'd prefer neutral colours e.g. black, steel blue/grey rather than stripes/patterns etc.

I'm currently in M&S black cotton leggings and a long black jumper from Sainsbury's. I'd like to have some proper trousers rather than leggings. So I can wear all the rest of my jumpers.

I'd be happy to pay up to £50 for the right pair. I know that's not a lot on MN but I thought it only fair to give a realistic budget for me! Thanks for your help and advice.

Saint and Sofia, Keller trouser, expensive but very worth it if you can afford it.

I love Uniqlo barrel jersey trousers. I wear regular length but they have a long also. They aren’t stretchy but they are very loose and comfortable. Also love all the jeans styles at the moment.

Next jersey denim wide leg trousers are great

Uniqlo wide leg trews are fab. Smart enough to wear to the office but super comfy, machine washable and if you take them out of the washer quickly no need to iron. What is there not to love
