Love these shorts, and am glad that I got them in 3 colours!! 😍 My measurements are accurate, and I have a long torso, so I usually have a difficult time finding highrise bottoms that cover my belly button (if you are petite or have a short torso/long leg combination, these may go up to your boobs 😋) The back gapes a wee bit, but there is a 13 inch difference between my waist and hips... If I remember correctly, I split the difference on the size that would be good for my waist (small) and hips (large), and it seems to have worked out well!
