After I posted about bermudas, Isabel suggested that I try the JCPenney denim bermudas. I'm happy to report that I bought and will keep them in both a dark wash and in white. The fit is great (TTS, I bought the 4's), the rise is high, the length is good, the price is outstanding ($20), and the white denim is nice and thick. The only issue is that they probably don't have a size small enough for some of you tiny YLFers.

THANKS, Isabel, for solving nearly all of my summer shorts problems.
