Very comfortable, very cute! I love that they're lounge-y enough to wear around the house but I can still pop on a cute top and run an errand. As I wear them I can tell they're going to get even more comfortable, andI'm so excited for that!
Sweetest shorts to elevate any outfit! Sunshine on your body!
sized up for extra length
I love these shorts because they are so easy to style in different ways. I love a matching set with the black top but also with the red gingham . Can be dressed up and dressed down with the top and accessories .
Lemon gingham shorts
I absolutely love them! Can not fault them
These are my favourite shorts ever! I wish they did the Embriodery in every colour, it' so cute and comfortable. I practically live in them.
This was my first time buying shorts as I have a lot of tops. I bought these shorts to match with the top and they are so cut and comfy!
So incredibly comfortable!! I'm 178cm tall , a 12-14 atm but also 33 weeks pregnant and these are so comfortable still ! Fabric unfortunately snags very easily though. I got size S/M
Oh my goodness! First time purchaser and instantly obsessed! The fabric is heavenly an immediately ordered another set 😍
I love the fabric and feel of these shorts, they are so comfy and love that it's all natural fibres. However I am an 8 and got the smallest size but they still look too big on me - they balloon out at the front and ride up between my thighs - I wish they did an XXS!
Purchased the brown crepe Matilda shorts to go with the matching Lacey and it is exceptionally comfy! I absolutely love the set and cannot wait to get many more pairs in new prints :)
I’m absolutely in love with the Garden Breeze Matilda Shorts from The Lullaby Club! The pattern is so beautiful and feminine, it instantly caught my eye. I sized up for a super relaxed fit, and I’m so glad I did because they are unbelievably comfortable. The fabric feels light, breezy and perfect for warm days. These are definitely becoming a staple in my wardrobe. Highly recommend if you love an effortless & comfy style!
This set is so unbelievably beautiful and comfortable. I need it all 🤩
I love these pieces to much! So comfy and low effort to wear, but still looks so nice and put together!
I'm 32 weeks pregnant and the fit is perfect! I chose the size L/XL to fit the bump and to compliment my size postpartum. I prefer a roomy pair of shorts so I do see these fitting me perfectly when I return to a smaller size.
So comfortable, washes really well AND looks so cute!
I have shied away from shorts for years now. Post babies I have struggled with being able to find any that fit my shape in a way that I feel comfortable. Shorts that don’t get eaten by my things or bum after every step. That aren’t too short or too long. And I’ve finally found them! The comfiest waistband, floaty, perfect length, no riding up and POCKETS!! I cockle easily wear the M/L but I like having a bit more fabric for that floaty feel, and the extra length for my height!
Perfect for warm days! So soft and comfy and looks a dream! 🥰
Absolutely amazing, this was my first order and I certainly got some sizing wrong but the red crepe matilda shorts fit perfectly the fabric is glorious and im very happy.
The perfect shorts, I have them in every single colour :)
