  • Literally bought in EVERY color
Special Size: Standard Size: 29 Color: Medium Indigo - Destructed
What’s that saying? “If you love it but it in every color” Well I did! Love all of them. Perfect summer denim. It’s the perfect length where your butt isn’t hanging out but they aren’t quiet “long” denim shorts. Super flattering.

  • Cute cute cute
Special Size: Standard Size: 24 Color: Medium Indigo - Destructed
So like other reviews have stated, the Levi’s patch on the back of the shorts feels kind of cheap. But if you can look past that these are super cute. Definitely glad I ended up purchasing while they were on sale. I’d say they may run a tad small and they’re definitely true jean material. No stretch. It’s hard for me to find jean shorts that fit & look good because I’m so small & petite. These are it!! ... show more

  • True to size
Special Size: Standard Size: 31 Color: Fargo Stop - Amazon Exclusive
I love these shorts. They are so flattering and make your waist looks small, the only thing I would say is be careful because they can run a little short, especially if you’re a taller girl, but other than that, they fit perfectly and the sizing is accurate.

  • 100% Buy
Special Size: Standard Size: 26 Color: Ojai Lake - Light Indigo
They came soo fast! They are nice, thick denim and fit great. They form to your curves very well. My new favorite jeans shorts, these are definitely worth what you pay for them. However, the other pair in the same color that has a more distressed look runs small and I had to return.

  • Meh
Special Size: Standard Size: 28 Color: Jazz Solo - Medium Indigo
Maybe I should have bought a bigger size but these were too short on me. Waist fit good but I felt like my booty was hanging out.

  • Super cute and surprisingly comfy!
Special Size: Standard Size: 33 Color: Fargo Stop - Amazon Exclusive
The media could not be loaded. I was worried that these would be extremely too tight and uncomfortable because I have a larger butt and thicker thighs, but they are surprisingly comfortable. They are very high-rise. I am 5’7” they come up above my bellybutton. I have a fairly long torso. I love the in my honest opinion it helps smooth out your stomach area. If you do happen to have a tummy pooch like I do my opinion if you are thinking about it, definitely give it a try, the worst that happens you do a quick return. And as far as the sizing goes, I am not typically a size 33. I am typically a 31 to 32 depending on the brand and the cut so I would go up one size. But that depends on your body and how you like your clothes to fit. I am 185 to 190 pounds, but most of my weight is in my chest legs and rear do with that information you will I personally love them they’re exactly what I was looking for , and I think they fit phenomenally! ... show more

  • No stretch - but still love them
Special Size: Standard Size: 29 Color: Harper Geo Laser
I'm 5'1, athletic build around 150 lbs. I purchased these in a size 29, I would recommend sizing up because they have no stretch although they do stretch out, slightly. This design is so cute and has buttons instead of a zipper. They are short on me, but I like the highwaisted short look.
