Definitely small! I've bought wide band bottoms before and really like the style, but usually the wide band bottoms have skimpy butt coverage. That's why I went for these. I ordered a few different sizes since I've never tried anything on from the brand before.. Man these are small. The size that best fits me is at least one size more than I wear in
jeans. And i mean my 100% cotton
jeans, not my stretchy I'm-wearing-a-size-less-than-I-usually-do
jeans. Definitely cute and comfy, just gotta make sure you get the right size. Oh, and pay attention to the color. It says "slate" and it means it. It's not black. I like it, but from a mix/match perspective you gotta know what you're dealing with.
