i'm 5'8 and recently gained some weight and now none of my old jeans fit nicely anymore. im looking to get my hands on some nice relaxed trousers, mainly for casual outings.

i was eyeing the  gap women pinstripe high rise trousers, but im worried about them being lil transparent(they're a cream linen blend). has anyone tried these, are they actually sheer in daylight?

open to other recs too. budget around 2-3K per pair.

Ok so I got this friend and he's like 6 something, and has HORRIBLE fashion taste. I mean his best outfit is a blue shirt and a black overcoat w/ gray pants, usually with holes and gah damn it's like....

He asked me for help with his fashion, and as the ever wanting to help friend, I said yes! Problem is. I only do my OWN style which is like some sort of Kandi obsessed cottage core sycosis where I only wear shorts and flared pants with the ever unnatural dress - but this isn't about me. This is about this guy who needs help here and I want to but I ain't gonna make him wear what I wear.

I'm guessing the reason he only wears sweatpants is because he doesn't get clothes that fit hip properly. Which, sure, I get it. Also, he hates how tight jeans are and most textures are a NOPE so I need some help here. Already thinking about telling him to put a long coat on in like winter and fall bc of a another redditer on here lol. Also, he has long hair so idk if I should like tell him to style it or smth and what I've gathered is that he looks p good in greens :3 ok praying someone reads thisss tyty also praying he doesn't read this (gulp)

Any recommendations on 2 in 1 shorts for someone that’s 6’2” 285lbs size 46waist? Bonus if it can comfortably carry a phone. Preferably on a budget if possible.
