Weekend wear

This has probably been discussed before, but I'm fairly new here (only a nan since August!). At 60 and with a pear-shaped figure, I'm finding it increasingly difficult to find suitable "weekend wear" - in other words, comfortable clothes for lounging around or taking a trip to town etc. I'm no longer a "jeans" person as I find them uncomfortable, and I don't wear skirts or dresses at all - so I'm running out of ideas!! Does anyone have any suggestions/tips please? confused

Tunic and leggings. Very comfy and as smart as you want to make it. I have a woolly one for cold weather and I've just got a Christmas one with Santas all over it.

If you are not a tunic and leggings lady ( and I'm not) then what's wrong with a pair of trousers, or dark indigo jeans( Per Una do some nice ones) so many kinds of trousers, slim, wide, bootcut etc.If you really want comfort, and are not going out, then a pair of black joggers.

Hallo missy I'm a pear too so its black jeans for me and a longish top. I always have at least one matelot ( blue stripes) as I read they are always classic and smart and then either a nice looking jumper or tunic top depending on the weather. I would only wear leggings at home - fat legs!!
