    Favorite shorts

    I have about 10 pairs of the Oahu shorts. These are my favorite style. They fit slightly large. I’m 5’1”, 108 lbs, and the 0 fits well. The size 2 wants to fall off.

    Great color

    These shorts are cute but run large. I got a size smaller than my normal and they are still too large in the waist but fit everywhere else. I am a little too old for wearing this length short but loved the color and couldn't find a red in a longer length. I would love the Carson jean in this color, but again, that style has an oversized waist. Carve designs seems to be made for women with narrow hips and bigger waists.

    Love these !

    The color and length are perfect! I’ll live in these this summer. I have larger thighs that can be difficult to fit into some shorts, these fit my legs so they’ll probably have a relaxed fit for most.
