Where are these shorts?

They're cotton but not crease type linen. They're a plain colour. They're not clingy at all. They're not denim. They're not 'office type' smart. They're not belted. They're not short - this is crucial - they're on the knee.. not higher and absolutely not lower!

They're suitable for a curvy size 14. But ... where are they?!

Try poetry. They have that kind of stuff.

Thanks for the tip. Just had a quick look but all linen and I don't really want to spend £80 on a pair

Boden??

PressPauseontheMenopause · 23/04/2020 22:22

Come in different lengths - very flattering

Asda. All my good, long shorts end up coming from there.

These, from H&M, they've called chino shorts, they also do lots of different styles of cotton shorts, I have loads and some have lasted 3 summers now

I'm also on the lookout OP and have thought about the Boden ones but am not sure I can bring myself to drop the best part of 50 quid on shorts Hmm

Uniqlo

The longer ones are bermuda shorts

@greyts love those, perfect for hanging around the house in.
Would you say they came up small or large? Tbh I'm usually a 12 but lockdown pounds are very very real

TheMarbleFaun · 24/04/2020 12:51

Depends how quickly you want them - H&M are very slow at delivery
Nearly 2 weeks for my last parcel

GreyTS · 24/04/2020 15:33

@cheeseycracker I'm an 8 and the 8's are slightly big but I did put in a pair of size 6 from last year and cried because they were too tight...emotional times these 😂 so I would stick with a 12 and be comfortable

Currently wearing these in Navy. So bloody comfortable!

Stretchy. Soft. Elasticated waistband that doesn't look old lady and they have real back pockets. Bargain at a tenner!
