First one....why is it when we are the same weight as another we can't be in the same size of clothing? It is rather fustrating to see that and realize you can't wear that size. I think I am just way to curvy for my own good.
Second one....why do we have stores that make clothes for the fluffier than average women not cut the sizes true to size??? I hate LB for that reason. Still fumming over the fact I am in a 26/28 shirt in that silly store when I know I am a size 16/18 in the big designers. Look at that difference. HUMPHING
Third one....fiber is evil. I don't care if it is good for you. My tummy is rebelling and let me tell you it's winning the battle. Nothing I want to eat is sitting well but bread is. YEAH AND JOY. Sheesh coke is the only thing keeping it from going into a full assault.

But stores owned by companies like Victoria Secrets and the such are never ever the right size and it has gotten worse. And it's not just clothes either! I am in a full cup size bigger in LB, which are VS bras, than I am in a $100 Walcol bra??? I am rather annoyed with it and there has to be something the consumer can do about it.
I have friends who fuss about the fact I tend to buy designer. Well, hello I want to wear something that is my size. Sheesh there is no way I am heading up to a size that says 26/28 on in. I don't care how cute it is on me. Especially if it is not my true size.
I try not to compare sizes because its useless.
It's hard enough for me to buy clothes as it is because I am so curvy. Hour glass shapes were not designed for today's clothes. And you are right people like different looks and we are all built differently. I tend to go for very tailored things but I have friends who won't wear that style.
At 222, I'm still in size 20's, and will be for at least another ten pounds. Once I'm in the 210's, hopefully the 18's will fit again!
I am very much into the tailored look. However, tees and sweaters on me always look tight. I can't hide the boobage if I try.
But it's true about some clothing being one size and some being another. Most of my pants are 20's and fit me real nice (not snug at all) and then I have a pair of size 20 jeans that I can't even get buttoned yet. Go figure!

I am one of those weird people who gain weight all over but loose weight quicker in my top...except for the boobs. So I tend to pass clothes down to friends who need them. I have a friend who can wear the things that are too big for me and she is smaller than I am.
I hate looking in the mirror. I suddenly get bigger and wider...AKKKK gets rid of "the I look so cute today" complex.
Im a very relaxed dresser.
