I finally reached the realization this year that shorts are generally not that flattering for women. They don’t really show off your waist, or accent the booty, or hit your legs in a slimming spot. Inseams seem to be either too long for me (bermudas) or too short (I like my bum to be covered). I actually called my mom to explain my epiphany and her response was something along the lines of, “obviously honey, how many grown women do you see wearing shorts?” Apparently I’m a bit behind. Regardless, I had pretty much stopped wearing shorts (other than athletic ones), until my sister got me these AMAZING shorts as an early birthday gift!
They have a 4 inch inseam, which is a great length! The waistband is good width and the legs & cuff fit comfortably around my thighs (without squeezing them). They have the perfect amount of stretch, which allows them to hold their shape without going up a size during wear. And the pattern is so fun! If I haven’t sold you on these yet – let me point out that they come in an array of colors & patterns (see below) and are all on sale for $22 or less! What a deal.
Have a happy weekend & snag yourself a pair of these shorts!

Great shorts! I bought a fun pair like this earlier this spring and have been loving them!
I am a shorts hater (other than like workout shorts). They are so unattractive on me. These shorts are adorable!! Now you make me want to try some New York and Co pairs! I love this pattern!
