I am 5'4 and 130 lbs. I have a pair of 711 Levi's in 27 short that I love. They are a true denim. Wanting a lighter color I bought "in btw the lines" in a 27 regular bc they didn't have short. I really liked the color but the regular was too long for me. It also was a way stretchier legging-ish material. Which if it doesn't lose its shape through the day is fine but I returned them so I don't know. Bc of the light color and the material I felt it showed cellulite... Maybe going up a size would help but I'm not sure. If they had a 27 short id be willing to rebuy and give it a try. But I didn't like the long length.
