New Wardrobe Staple

These are the perfect length and fit. I'm 5'4/140 lbs and the size 28 are perfect. They're short without being *too* short and I need a pair in every color.

A staple for everyone’s summer wardrobe

4 days ago
I sized up with these shorts for a more comfortable fit. They fit amazing and can be styled for several different occasions from brunch to beach to a night out. They have butterfly buttons which are hidden for a seamless look. I wore them to brunch on a hot summer day and was very comfortable. The material feels breathable and the stitching makes for a flattering fit. The perfect jean shorts that I will be teaching for all summer.

Summer must have!

I am obsessed with the fit of these Levi shorts. They are the perfect length and you can dress them up with a nice blouse, or a tank for a more casual look. I wore them all day and they are super comfortable. I want one in every color!

Love my light pink Levi’s 501 high Rise shorts

6 days ago
Love these Levi’s 501 Original Fit High-Rise Women’s Shorts. They have a hidden button fly which is a cute detail on the front. The light pink wash is unique and definitely something I will be wearing frequently. I received tons of compliments while wearing them. They have a good stretch to the perfect material thickness for a summer jean short. They were comfortable to wear while I did some errands as well as over my swimsuit after a pool day. They feel like they will last and are a durable Jean short.

Good summer shorts

Ordered one size up based on reviews and fit well, have a little room so it’s not super tight. I like the distressed look at bottom of shorts. Cover entire bottom so don’t feel exposed.
