It covers her hiney, it stays up. Overall, I think this underwear fits the bill. (I was going to say "panties" but someone I know sincerely hates that word, so I try to limit my use of it. Sometimes not so successfully.) The colors are different, as many have mentioned. Different as in ugly--- seriously ugly. Unless you like bright orange and vivid blue all mixed up together-- then these are definitely for you! Otherwise, it's a good buy. Price is right and little kids grow fast!
