Short and comfortable
These feel so good around the waist! Sizing is true if not a tiny bit snug, and I love the short length.

Love these!!
I absolutely love these shorts fit me. They help elongate my short legs and a nice change up with some color. I was hesitant at first when I opened them and held them up but what a pleasant surprise! I’ve gotten several compliments in the few times I’ve worn them. Recommend if you’re looking for something new and a little different for your wardrobe

High Waist but Short Inseam
The way these would have been perfect shorts if the inseam was an inch longer.

Size up run small
The shorts are the perfect cut and length for me except the sizing is off. I typically wear a size 25/26 or an xs/s so I initially bought the size 2 which was a few inches too small. I exchanged it to a size 4 and although it fits you do know through menstruation women’s bloating goes up and down so during that time I knew I would want more flexibility so I just ordered the size 6 which we shall see.

Thin material.
Thin material shows everything. Denim should not be so thin

Cute
These are cute shorts. The length is not super short or too long. The sizing is suprising - I am a 00. These shorts run smalll so I had to purchase a size 2. Definitely try these on or size up.

Inconsistent sizing but super cute
The sizing is so inconsistent! I got my normal size but they seemed kinda big and so I sized down. They fit fine but if you want to be more comfortable, size up. The white color definitely runs smaller. It’s just a bummer on these shorts because they are so cute! Oh…the yellow color in person is definitely not what is shown in the picture. It’s a dull gross color IMO.

Adorable
So cute! I did have to size up to a 4 (my usual is a 0-2). They’re very flattering and a great length. Helped to disguise my mom pooch. Bought in the dark denim color because I loved the red so much.

In love with these sailor shorts!
Bought these in store on a whim and omg they're my new faves! Midsize hourglass girlies, buy these now!! I'm a 5'5"160 lb hourglass who usually wears size 10 (30 in 501Levi's) and they fit perfectly and I love the vintage look! I honestly didn't expect to love these so much, but now that I'm in my 30s and carrying a little more weight around my tummy area, the 501 Levi's have become restrictive, uncomfy, and overall less flattering for me. These shorts have a little stretch and flatter your fupa (like seriously completely smoothes it down even when sitting) which is why not having front pockets is not a biggie for me; they're always too small and I don't use them anyway lol. It does have back pockets that are big enough to hold your phone so win-win for me! Just ordered 3 more in different colors bc they're on sale for $15.40 a pop rn, curvy girlies get these while they last--you won't regret it!🫶🏼

So perfect.
These are my absolute favorite, most flattering shorts, and I have way too many shorts. I’m 5’5.5 and 120. I got a size 2, and they do stretch out a bit but they are still so perfect. Flattering in every way.

Would be a 10/10 but they have NO POCKETS!
These shorts are adorable! I’m normally a size 8 but went with a 10 after trying both on they definitely run small! My only issue is there is NO POCKETS! If they had pockets I’d by them in every color and they would be my new go to jean shorts! I’m 5’5 140 white a shorter waist.

Must have!
No pockets, but I think it makes for a great look and a smooth fit! Usually between a size 10 or 12 in shorts, purchase these in a 12 and they fit excellent! Probably could’ve gone with the 10, but the 12 is more comfortable! 5’8”-165lbs

Not meant for curvy hips
The style is adorable. Tried on the white pair w stripes. Unfortunately the sailor cut is unforgiving or not meant for anyone with hips/bum and runs at least two sizes too small. I went with the size chart and still could have used two size up. Unfortunately returning.

Runs short
They fit true to size around the waist but run incredibly short. So short that I wouldn't be comfortable wearing them in public.
