Love my light pink Levi’s 501 high Rise shorts

2 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

6 days ago
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.

Hugs you in all the right places!

8 days ago
I really love the fit of these!! The stretch it perfect and typically I wouldn’t opt for a button fly but I don’t mind it on these ones. They hug my body really well without feeling loose in the waist. The only thing I would change is having them a tiny bit longer but it’s probably great for others! They’re off-white, pictured with a white tee for reference

Súper practical . I love it

11 days ago
I love the fabric and the color, the style it has and how it looks like. The fabric is of very good quality. You can use it anytime and anywhere and more outside it’s summer. To take care of it, wash it with cold water so they remain the same color and softness.

My go to shorts

11 days ago
These will be my go to shorts for the summer. I have always loved Levi’s, but the combination of the material having some stretch to it as a game changer. It’s a perfect high waisted height, and the length is great for summer. The color will be so versatile for summertime.

Love the color

12 days ago
I love the color and fit of these shorts. There is one button that you can see then 3 buttons hidden from regular view. The leg space is breathable and not tight. The material is long lasting all around, including waistline.

Super flattering !!

I absolutely love these 501 shorts ! They’re comfortable and fit really well without feeling too tight. The high rise style is super flattering and I always get compliments when I wear them. These are great quality that feels durable but still comfy to wear all day.
