I love the fit of these New Zealand Designer shorts

That I did it! They fit so well, I now have a pattern, and I love it that I don't have to wear standard black and taupe any more - these are a lovely burgundy red

Love the details! Nice welt pocket on the back, and a witty take on the coin pocket. I might make a pair like this too, when I have some time : )
