Cropped wide leg trousers

I do have some wide legged quite heavyweight black cropped trousers. Look fine with knee high boots imho. Obviously with thick black tights as well so pale knees are not revealed when sitting down. It’s my go to winter funeral uniform.?

I think people want advice but not to be told how dreadful their ideas and tastes are. That’s just unkind.
On the original query I like wide leg cropped trousers but I only wear them in the summer as I have the same footwear dilemma. Have a look at some fashion sites and see what the models are wearing with them for ideas.

I'm all for people wearing whatever they like. But if friends/family, or whoever asks me does this look ok I tell them straight, no it doesn't
Why do people ask for advice if all they want to hear is confirmation of their own thoughts/ ideas/ dress sense?

Knee high boots and opaque tights in my opinion.

I have black cropped wide trousers which I wore quite a bit last winter, with knee high black boots. I’m not tall and willowy by any means (5’7” / size 14), but they looked ok. Looked best with a shortish jacket. I could find a pic, but having seen some of the comments on here, I probably won’t

Jaylucy I am emboldened by your advice, as I have a whole shelf of knee high boots.

Accepted @urmstongran! I was pretty taken aback by how fast my innocuous query got slapped down on several sides! I did ask for it I guess and all’s fair in love and fashion

If trying boots, please just knee length ones! Or thick tights and slim (not clumpy) ankle boots might be a go?
Personally, cropped trousers of any description should be binned - but then I have short fat stumpy legs that would look silly with anything that wasn't at least ankle length!

My sincere apologies sarahcyn. I truly did not intend to be mean.

I wear culottes with knee high boots in winter and white trainers in summer

culottes

Courgettes was better.

I’m going to try them with boots.
Thanks @annsixty for your kind encouragement

culottes

I like wide legged trousers with warm long underpants in clod weather.

My feeling about any cropped trousers is they are a warm weather mood. I suppose narrow ones could be tucked into boots but then why not wear breeches?

If the trousers are so wide legged they are divided skirts or these courgette garments I forget the proper word for them. I think long boots would be nice but not of course with the grament tucked in.

How strange I find it that as older people we are urged to be ourselves , wear and look how and what we like and ignore the censure of others, and now en masse, criticise someone who is doing just that.
sarahcyn just try several looks for yourself, preferably with the red and purple of the poet whose name escapes me,and good luck.

I think cropped, and long, wide leg trousers, are best left to the very tall, very slim and very young people without hips, tummies and bottoms. Just my opinion.

Not for winter. They look awful except with bare legs. I have to confess I would only wear sandals with them too rather than anything closed up. That’s just me though people must dress as they like .

Clearly I’m the worst dressed gran in the world.

Urmstongran thanks, that makes me feel great.

I think that cropped wide legged trousers are a no no - any time of year!

Not for me - my legs are skinny ...

is there another way they look right
They've never looked right, and never will. Awful look.

I think cropped wide leg trousers are the worst look. I’ve never seen anyone who wears them looking good - whatever the combo with them.

I’d prefer culottes I think, with boots. I like cropped trousers in summer but not wide legged I must admit.

Leggings, short skirt and boots for me in the Winter. Wide leg crops, nope, not for me.

I agree with Espee. Long trousers inthe winter
