Promising review: "The fit is so cute! I love the color scheme. Can easily be worn with flat or dressy sandals. I am 5'3" and the length is good on me, neither too long nor too short. It will be a go-to for the summer!" —Carrie G.

Price: $72+ (originally $120; available in sizes XXS–XXL, petite and tall fits, and five colors/patterns)

Promising review: "Purchased the white — already have the black and love them. These hit below the ankle and are perfect to wear with flats, sneakers, or a low heel. I wanted something that could be dressed up (or down). Slightly big but not so much that I needed a smaller size. Soft and stretchy material." —KM

Promising review: "I love the fit and length, and the back pockets. The length is perfect for me." —Sonya N.

Price: $36+ (originally $60; available in sizes 0–20 and four colors)

Promising review: "Cut beautifully, these drape like slacks and look amazing with smart casual tops. Instantly refines an outfit without giving up comfort. The waistband has enough substance to anchor the pants so they don't drift like leisurewear, but it is stretchy enough to move freely and still sit in them for hours. They don't wrinkle easily, making them a great travel option. Great for conferences and flights. Move over, jeans, these are so much more comfortable and are suitable for office wear." —Shelley H.

Price: $72 (originally $120; available in sizes XXS–XXL, petite and tall fits, and four colors)

BuzzFeed Shopping is service journalism first: our writers and editors spend all day shopping so you don’t have to, vetting products, fact-checking brand claims, and surfacing what actually helps in real life. We center readers over revenue, recommend products with authenticity (using real experiences, not ad-speak), and reflect our diverse audience, inclusive of a variety of price points, people, and needs. We cut through fake deals, favor useful info over glossy fluff, and recommend both budget and splurge options with context so you can decide what’s right for you — and still have a little fun along the way.
