Everyday clothes black leggings new shape & jeans / bottoms size 12

Hi I am asking for done help getting couple of everyday outfits.
My days are at home, looking after children and as a carer, sometimes exercising (not enough) and meeting friends for coffee

I need

  • everyday black leggings - I’d love a new shape as I have loads of ‘normal’ ones
  • everyday wide black trousers that I can wear casually looking after kids/carer, don’t mind if these are ankle length
  • new jeans - ones I live in are Levi’s or Zara wide leg & they look worn
  • couple new tops, must have long or 3/4 sleeve - but it’s the bottoms I really need.

I just don’t have time to go out for a morning shopping/trying so I’d like to order online or go to pick up in the shop.

I am size 12, 5ft 6 and will consider most price points or look on vinted if too pricey but given my day to day I am happy with high street/supermarket mostly,

Please please put in links for your recommendations

Try next, or FatFace used to do leggings that were great quality. I only wear leggings for housework personally, but do occasionally wear narrow leg jeans for a casual look-next or M&S maybe.

Everyday leggings in a new shape? Aren’t leggings leggings? M&S has so many jeans it’s a shop like no other! Wide leg, barrel leg, straight or skinny - you can find them! Most people wear sports leggings now and they are available on M&S too. Order and try on at home. I like their Autograph jeans as the fabrics are lighter weight. Black trousers easy to find too.

Im not linking because it would be a large number of links but I’m sure you can browse by using the filters and brand options as well as customer reviews.
