I was SO excited to get these. I ordered a size smaller(XS) based on reviews, but they still fit funny. I can't pinpoint what exactly I didn't like, but as my husband said, I have a great figure and they did nothing for it.

These shorts are SO comfy and cute. I ordered them in the denim and got a size small which is my normal size (4/27). I got them during the sale, so for $12, you cannot beat these! Plus they definitely pass for a more expensive version elsewhere. I'm definitely going to get a ton of use out of these this summer.

These are amazing and great quality! I’m usually a small and the XS fit me so I’d say they run a little large.

Purchased these white drawstring shorts in a large but then ordered the medium for a better fit. I am normally 12/14 in bottoms but the large size was way too baggy in the butt area for my liking.

I have really loved these shorts so far! They are super comfortable and very cute. The price is hard to beat! I read the reviews and people said they ran a little big - I normally wear medium or large, I went with a medium and I like the fit! I've been thinking about buying another pair!

These are great quality for the price tag. Had to exchange sizes, those saying to size down are wrong, can definitely afford to size up in the white shorts.

These are great! Over the belly button and functional drawstring. Love the denim color - it's light colored and material is light. Leg holes are a bit large but not a deal breaker. Reminds me of the mom style shorts - and as a mom of young kids (note toothpaste on mirror haha), these are just what I wanted. Of note the pockets are really deep/wide in the front - kinda feels like things will fall out of them. Inseam is a little short when wearing high waisted but provides coverage. After reading reviews I was afraid they would be too big. I ordered a small and xs (usually im a 4 and between a small and medium in most pants). The small fits just how I wanted them to - I'd say relatively true to size and go down if in between sizes. Pic posted is size small. 5'7 125 I love them enough I'm considering a backup pair
