Hi Ladies,

Can anyone tell me where I can find good quality wide-leg pants for work? I'm a size ten (mostly) and figure these kind of pants would help camouflage my rather..ahem... thick thighs:p .

Thank you for all of your help. You guys have NO IDEA how much I appreciate it:) .

Try Ann Taylor. They carry very nice dress slacks.

Not sure if they are still there but Dress Barn had some NICE really dark denim wide leg pants. They were on clearance for $19!!! They did not look like jeans but were the dark denim that looks dressy. I got them in a 14. I have hips and thick thighs but no waist. Mine gap a little at the waist but look good around the hip/thigh area.

I also bought a pair of wide leg black denim (still dressy) from Lerner NY too.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Nikki,
In the past I've tried Ann Taylor slacks, and they've never seemed to last very long with me (delicate material + me = destruction:cool: ). and they didn't seem to look right on me. I haven't bought anything from them in years, so I'll go take a look. I've probably just been getting the wrong pants for my build.

thanks again.

Kweenameena,
Thank you for reminding me! A coworker told me about victoria's secret yesterday (never bought clothes from them before).
Of course I forgot to check it out when I got home. Imma go check out newport news now

Dani,
Haven't been to H&M in a while, and when I did it was always crowded. I'll try to go on off peak hours. thanks!

Also try Ann Taylor Loft..they have about 3 or 4 different styles (cut wise) of pants now..I bought a couple of pair of nice wide legged pants..even found a pair with cuffs which I love!

Zara may also carry wide leg pants..

I'm bottom heavy and a size 10 too and I've found some nice and good quality wide legged pants at Banana Republic (wait for the sale, everything goes on sale there) and Anthropologie. The Limited can have some nice things too but lately they haven't had a good selection of dressier pants.
