She also gave the Stradivarius shorts a low scoreInstagram
She tried shorts from ASOS, H&M and Stradivarius, with H&M coming out both top and bottom.
“There’s 2 clear winners here and a few pairs that are pretty rubbish tbh,” Emma explained in the caption for her Instagram Reel.
Firstly, she tried the ASOS 4505 Hourglass legging shorts, which she gave a 10 out of 10.
“Good quality, not see through, suck you in,” she said of the £14 shorts.

She had less success with the £11.99 Stradivarius seamless ribbed legging shorts, which she gave a five out of 10.
“Too see through, shows all your lumpy bits,” she sighed.
Next, she tried a different version of the ASOS 4505 Legging short in sheen fabric.
She awarded them a nine out of 10, and admitted that they have a “nice fit”, but she’s “not sold on the sheen finish”.

The third ASOS shorts she tried were the cheapest of the bunch at £6, but got just a four out of 10.
“Cheap and comfortable but thin fabric and a bit see through,” she added.
H&M was up next, with Emma trying on three pairs of shorts from the store, staring with the £9.99 ribbed cycling shorts.
She gave them just a three out of 10, adding that they’re “too loose, don’t suck you in”.
“Really don’t like these,” she added.
The seamless sports cycling shorts, £12.99, from the store were given a six out of 10.
“OK but show cellulite and I don’t like the tight band around the bottom of the legs,” Emma said.

“Comfortable, high waisted, good length,” she gushed.
