Typically, the only time you’ll find me in shorts is when I’m out for a run or lounging around the house. I love my muscular legs, but shorts almost never feel like the most flattering option for me. I’m far more likely to reach for a dress or skirt!
However, I recently came across the most amazing pair of summer shorts on Amazon that have completely changed how I fell about this summer staple! I feel like I do have thicker legs for my height/structure and I find these to be very flattering shorts for big thighs. The looser fit, ruffle hem, and mid-thigh length really compliments my figure in a way that I love (which is NEVER how I fell when it comes to shorts).
You definitely won’t regret snatching up a pair or two of these for summer! From throwing them on over your bathing suit to dressing them up for an elevated casual look, you can reach for them on so many occasions.
Why These Are the Best Women’s Shorts of 2020:
- They are only $24! (talk about cheap shorts for summer!)
- Very impressive fabric. The tag inside says 100% polyester, but I’m not sure if I believe it! They really do feel more like a cotton or linen. They have the texture you’d expect from a linen piece of clothing only they’re more lightweight and flexible (it’s not a stretchy fabric).
- I swear that somehow they’re breathable!
- Comfortable elastic waist that isn’t too tight
- When it comes to nonathletic options, I’m positive these are the most comfortable women’s shorts
- Functional, deep pockets that you can actually put things in and not have them fall out
- So many ways to wear these (see below)
- Great mid-thigh length that doesn’t feel too short
- Also available in brick red, army green, beige, and black at the same link
NOTE: I found a number of sellers who offer shorts that look very similar to this with awful reviews about the fit and quality, so I highly recommend grabbing them from this specific link to ensure that you end up with the pair I’m loving!
Fit Info:
- True to size: I’m wearing a small in these cute shorts on Amazon for reference, which is what I usually buy for bottoms
