Reporting back: these are great trousers if you're 5'8" or shorter (OR, if you're up to 5'10" and down mind them not breaking). If on the taller side and if you want a break in the leg, you'll want to see if they come in a tall size. I'm 5'10" and want a break at the bottom. I usually wear an 8 and, like with my other "curvy fit" pants from Loft, I had to size down to a 6. I ended up not keeping them because I have some other options to try, but will circle back to try them in a tall, if anything. Thanks again for the recommendation!
