    Gap in the 'curvy' styles and Ann Taylor Loft in the 'Julie' cut. They aren't perfect (I have a HUGE discrepancy between my thighs and my waist), but they are the best I've found.

    I also have a couple of pairs of North Face shorts that work well. I think because they are 'hiking' shorts, they were cut with a little more room in the leg, so they fit me as regular shorts fit straighter shaped women.

    Also, for dress pants, Banana Republic has a new line that is "curvier." I can't remember the name, but I have a waist/hip discrepancy, too, and these pants were actually a little too big for me in the legs. They come in basic colors and styles.

    Try the Gap Favorite Chinos - I can only find them at the outlet, but it's definitely worth a trip!

    I am definitely curvy in the pants area and I just love these chinos - they have plenty of room for my butt and thighs and also bring that little tummy area in and make it nice and flat
    My new biking mantra:
    I am attached to my bike. If I start to slow down, I need to unclip. If I do not unclip, I will fall. If I unclip, I will hurt myself less if I do fall.

    Now I can not believe I am recommending these but I got a pair through the mail from Vistoria secret and I really like them. I am curvy and short (5'3) so I have a hard time with pants as well. Athletic legs (23) and butt (32), small waist. They had a great pair of khaki pants in size 6 with tons of room in the legs and butt. But there are cargo pockets. But see for me since I travel the pockets are great. The length was a bit long (30) but there are these little tie's at the bottom so I can sinch them up a bit. They are very cute. Hope this helps some. Here is a link to the one's I got.

    Eddie Bauer makes pants that have the hips one size larger than the waist, I can't remember the name of the cut, but it is easy to find on their web site. And Lands End one style of curvy cut jeans that don't gap out at the back waist on me, which is unusual. I have good luck with the Lee stretch boot cut jeans at WalMart too(I know, the un-American place to shop). And I always try anything with a drawstring waist adjustment! Tokie
