Not crazy about my legs, but I liked these shorts from LOFT

[sjh722]

I think someone here recommended them. Thanks, internet mystery person.

They're the Riviera 4" inseam shorts. They are just a smidge tight in the hips (or bottom, if you will) at the moment but I'm wearing them around the house with the tags on to see if they stretch, since other LOFT pants I've had have been falling down after a few hours of wear.

Two thumbs up. I'm tired of being hot or wearing yoga crops all the time.

Yes! I love my shorts from LOFT. Those look great on you!

Thank you!

And good, because I bought 3 other colors, LOL. They were only $20. If they fall apart after one summer I've gotten my money's worth.

A little birdie told me that if you put your arm down the waist & out the leg hole, then do squat then you can see if they'll stretch a bit.

I want to get some colorful shorts, I will stop by Loft. I had a pair similar to yours years ago that I loved.

You look cute!

[pinotgrig]

You look fab! That's a fun color and looks great on you.

You look great!!! ? I have a couple pairs from last year and like them a lot. I don't think they stretched too much.

You look good "Miss I just had a baby!"

Shorts are super cute!

How do they do on the muffin top? That's my biggest issue. My legs have thinned out my thighs are strong and not just chubby now but my muffin top just sticks out the worse for it and will not go away!

@mrswindycity, I have on a size bigger than my pants are. I think it helps them fall a little better. I'm just mentally ignoring the size 14 on the tag, LOL.

@justdairy, the waist is high enough that the muffin top's not bad.

Unrelatedly, didn't you recently try out the Cure Natural Aqua Gel from Amazon? Did you like it? It's been on my wish list forever based on a few recs from back in the day.

Thanks. I always buy shorts a size bigger too. I don't love the tag..lol but they fall on my legs so much better that way. I have the thighs of a girl that works on a farm...lol..they get tight fast otherwise.

I do like it.

I've been using Neutrogena rapid wrinkle repair at night, then the Cure Aqua Gel once or twice a week in the morning.

You look awesome! Thanks for the rec! I have some Old Navy shorts with a 3 inch inseam and it's just too short.

I'm just coming to 2nd that it's a pretty good product. 
I bought if after SJH told me too...haha.  

I use it like twice a week. 

Also does good stuff to my heels.

You look great! The shorts are very flattering.

[blueberry10]

I just bought some of those too! I like that the rise is high enough to hold things in a little bit.

ETA: they look great on you!

[aspentosh]

You look great! I need a pair of white shorts and these might be the perfect ones.

[djc315]

Those look great on you! I love bright colored shorts - off to shop!

I'm going to try these today. I really need some shorts. My thighs are where I gained a lot of my pregnancy weight and I have hated every pair of shorts I've tried so far. But I could only find 3" and 5". Maybe 4" will be more flattering?

4" is the sweet spot! 3" is a little too short, and 5" hits my legs at a weird spot and makes them look thicker.
