Heads up, this is not a relationship question but it is Urgent!

I have a induction afternnon for a job at a local garden center (Homebase for those of us in the UK)and I just ripped my black trousers. I have no idea what to wear now, no time to replace them and no money to replace them. I moved to a new city and know no one who i could borrow a pair from. What do I do?

I'm a 18 year old girl.

Help PLEASE!

Thank you so much for all of your help!

They ripped on the inner leg and I tried to sew them up but it didn't hold. I had a rumage in the back of my closet and found a serviciable dress which I can wear with a cardigian. As Hugh.J suggested I will explain the situation.

Many thanks again!

Charity shop, or wear a skirt, or dress with a jacket. As long as you look smart,hair tidy, shoes clean,not loads of make-up or jewellry, and smile.Homebase isn't a 'posh' shop or like ,say Top Shop so you don't have to look ultra trendy.Just clean and fresh

Good luck x

You don't have friends you can borrow a pair from? Or you can't borrow a few measly dollars to buy some cheap pair that will do the a single interview?

Well could you go to a charity shop in time and pick up a really cheap pair of trousers? Failing that, what about that stuff you iron in to 'hem' trousers, wonder web or something? Iron it on the inside? Or could you sellotape it from the inside? Or like Hugh.J said sew them?

Could some of your friends from your old home town borrow you a pair (drive up to see you?)

Do you not have a skirt or any other possible trousers to wear? Even a smart pair of black jeans?
