Fit Review Friday! Athleta Retroterry Mid Rise Jogger, Retroterry High Rise Short, Retreat Linen Ankle Pant, Retreat Linen Short, Endless Cargo Pant

Hotty Hot HR Short 4 inch Iridescent Tidewater Teal/Power Purple Size 4 Hotty Hots are my favorite Lululemon short to workout in. I personally prefer the 2.5" length, but I couldn't resist the Iridescent colorway. These are 4" in length and they're still flattering on my short frame.
