To be totally honest, I saw a picture of myself with my 1.5 year old son and I was shocked at how bad my previous shorts looked. I decided it was time for some longer shorts for this new era haha! These are way softer than my other Levi’s and super comfortable. I am wearing my normal size 25s and the fit is perfect.

Timeless Style and Perfect Fii

Love it💞 I love the slightly frayed hem and the high-rise cut — it’s flattering and easy to pair with almost anything, from a casual tee to a tucked-in blouse. They’ve quickly become my go-to shorts for everyday wear.
