Tips on dressing for the office as a short girl?

I recently started an office job and I’m looking for more pants that aren’t jeans. My issue is that the vast majority of slacks are high rise, and I’ve found that high rise looks terrible on me. I have a short inseam (around 28 at 5’5) and even pants that are marketed as mid-rise end up hitting at my belly button. I’m also plus-size (size 12-14) so a lot of curvy/plus-size pants end up having too much material at the crotch that bunches weirdly.

For any shorter girls, have you found any luck finding slacks or comfortable work pants that actually fit mid- to low-rise on you? I’m looking for something more comfortable or with some stretch, but any recs are appreciated! General tips on dressing for petite proportions are also super appreciated! I feel like so much corporate fashion only looks good on taller people lol

Also as an aside since I know these get recommended super often, I’ve tried the Old Navy pixie pants and they looked horrible on me :( The crotch had way too much extra material and ended up looking ridiculous.
