    :(

    Everything fit fine except for the waist- which pushed up any fat on my stomach in an honestly comical way and gave me crazy muffin tops.

    Perfect pocket

    Love the pockets. I’m usually an XS but I had to size up to a size small because the liner was giving me a weird wedgie look that wasn’t flattering. Would rather the overall fit of the XS but like enough to wear the hair larger size. For reference I’m 5’7” - 125 lbs and not that bootylicious (but no pancake either).
