current obsession: too good to be true? I just found the perfect jean shorts for summer

TL;DR- yes, these shorts really check all the boxes.

Maybe you're like me & you hate shopping for shorts. I swear every summer, I'm like Goldilocks on the hunt for a pair that fits just right. But it's always something- like they fit weird in the hips, the waist is too tight, or they're just too short. Sound familiar?

LISTEN, I WAS SKEPTICAL, TOO.

 I guess you could say I've been burned too many times in the past when it came to denim shorts. So just when I stopped searching, the perfect denim shorts came to me. & Y'all, these do not disappoint.

Without further adieu, let me introduce to you the one pair of shorts you'll be reaching for all summer- the Emmerson High Rise denim shorts from Oliver Logan.

What I love about the Emmerson High Rise denim shorts from Oliver Logan

ABOUT THE FIT

So I'm 5'7 & typically about 175 lbs & I usually wear a size 12 for reference. For these shorts, I did size up, like I normally do with Oliver Logan, & ordered a Size 32.

What I love about the fit-

• the 11 3/4" high rise fit that comes up to my belly button

• a waistband that doesn't dig in

• a more structured denim to "hold ya in"

• a longer inseam (5.5") that still looks good but saves ya from thigh rub

• they don't ride up my ass

• they're really comfy & stylish

Additional points to note-

I carry most of my weight in my belly & have smaller legs. If you carry most of your weight in your hips & thighs, these might be a little tight in the hips & leg for you, as they just fit me perfectly- especially when sitting down. You may want to try a couple sizes to find the right fit.

FINAL THOUGHTS

Personally, I like these Oliver Logan shorts better than the Abercrombie Curve Love Dad Shorts I bought last year. While both pairs of shorts are comfortable, I find that the fit is more flattering for my body type with the Emmerson High Rise shorts.

10/10. The hunt for the denim shorts is over. Catch me rocking these all summer long.
