Crayon Floral High-Waist Bottom

I recently bought these to match a top I already had they are so cute and comfortable! I am 5’6 and around a size 10 and they were a perfect fit for me.

I'm a size 8-10 in bottoms with a small waist and thicker thighs and got size medium. These bottoms fit and were comfortable enough but they weren't flattering at all to my curves. The waistband and leg openings have thin hems and don't smooth anything out, creating an exaggerated pudgy appearance as it looked like it was cutting into my belly and thighs. But I'm sure those with lean frames wouldn't take issue with the design.
I was also excited about the "crayon" floral pattern as I was looking for a busy print to contrast my plain black bikini top, but it wasn't super high quality (has that faded "not enough printer ink" look when stretched) and seems meant for little girls rather than something playful for an adult. But that could just be me. If I buy from Lime Ricki again, I'll be sure to check for thicker bands like the boyshorts and probably not get anything with a print.
On the plus side, I like their shipping and returns systems that made it all very simple.

I love these im 5’6 these fit perfect and are comfy! My first high waist bottoms! Gorgeous colors and flattering!

I ordered down a size to keep my aging bottom inside the bottoms! Elastic is a little loose for me but I’m keeping because they are so comfortable!
