Does anyone know how similar the NEON ROSE and NEON AZALEA colors are in the Blythe Blouse? i already own the Neon Azalea and I'm not sure if it would be crazy to buy the Neon Rose too. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks =p)

I have them both and think they are very different. The neon rose is more of a light coral, while the neon pink is a true Bubblegum pink. I have the poppy and cherry also, they are all different enough that they aren't duplicates. HTH

I have the neon rose and have seen the neon azalea color in person too and I think they are different enough. The neon azalea color is a true bubblegum pink and the neon rose is a very bright neon coral, with a little bit of pink in it too. Go for it, especially now when the neon rose color is on sale ;)

Do you have any recommendations for a model, maybe something compact-ish? :smile1:

I have the Jiffy J2000 and am satisfied with it. I don't have much storage space so I used to put it in a corner behind my dresser, but now I just unscrew the pole and store in the bottom of my closet. I use it once a week on all of DH's J.Crew button ups, pants, etc. and on my silk stuff and blazers and dress pants. It is great for getting wrinkles out of just washed items and also for in between dry cleanings for jackets and things. I hate ironing, so this is a big help for me.

3" and 4" would be perfect. If u think 3" would be too short, try the 4". I have a few 2" and sometimes can be too short depending on the seam. If they are cut offs I can do 2" but I feel 3" are perfect and I am 5'3". Also do you have thick or thin legs for your height? That also plays a role too.

I´m also petite and 5´2 and I love the 3 inch, I have them in the bright yellow and they really are the perfect summer shorts!

If you think the 3" might be too short maybe try the 4" or 5"? :smile1:

I think it depends on your age and the look you at going for. I am 5'9" and in my mid twenties and mostly wear 3" because I'm usually just wearing them casually with a tee. I recently got a pair of 5" for "dressier" shorts and have yet to wear them. I think I am going to start buying the 4" from now on because the 3" feel a little short when I want to wear a longer top. I would probably go with the 3 or 4 at your height but no longer. If you want "long" shorts maybe try the 7.

Agree. I'm 5"2' and I find their 5" chino shorts the most flattering on me. The 3" are a bit too short for my liking and my age :p

I'm 5'7" and 5" is my favorite, everything else just feels too short. For your height, I think you could probably go with 3" or 4".

We are about the same height and I love their 5" chino shorts. I personally find the 5" to be the perfect length and the 3" to be a little short for my liking. Maybe I could have pulled off the 3" if I'm a little younger :smile1: I have a few that I have been rotating this summer and I love them!

Thanks ladies! I just turned 32 earlier this year and just became a mom recently so I don't think I can pull off the short shorts. I'm going to try on the 5" ones. I tried to pop into J.Crew today, but didn't happen.

Does anyone have the factory shorts? Do they fit similar to the store ones? All the fun summery colors are sold out in my size. But the factory still has some summery colors in my size so I was wondering how they fit.

By the way, do any of these of shorts have stretch in the cotton or none at all? I am thinking of sizing up to be comfy.
