Honestly, some people, you can get dressed all year round and yet you still complain that at sales time they sell out of what you want.

No, it's a look which just kinda happens

Real odd ball sizes

Ohh I might have to put in an order!

My main grumbles are leg length and falling inbetween sizes. Also inconsistent sizes means I am often unsure which size to go for anyway.

I am thinking about taking some clothes to a local tailor as I seem to have a few things where the fit is just not quite right. I used to alter more things myself but I don't really have the time these days plus I think they will do a better job of it. Have many people tried this? I am not really sure what to expect although I popped in today for a price list and they seemed nice.

If anybody is after reasonably priced suits (male and female) Slaters is great. They do free alterations

Bah!

BAH DIDDY BAH WAH WAH.

I went bra shopping yester and was absolutely ecstatic as there were some gorgeous ones my size - 34 DD - there never normally is!

HOWEVER!

Non of them fitted me right. The cup was eating my boob alive and the width was too big.

Soooo I have been refitted and I'm now a 32 E. IT'S SILLY! I'm losing weight yet my boobs are getting bigger!

What annoyed me the most was there were no bras (unless I wanted granny ones) in my new size

*sobs some*

So. I'm still hippy and bummy (which means POOPY to finding any trousers - currently atwix size 10 and 12 - size 10 hips but size 12 butt), widdeler waist and whooping big mummas on top. I tried on a nice couple of tops which had buttons on too and *POP*POPOPOPPOP*.... they all burst open (like belmits cowboy shirt!) I swear it sounded like I was cooking popcorn in the fitting room. Yet, rather annoyingly it fitted perfectly round the waist - the next size up was too baggy.

WAAAAAAAAAGH!

/me officially hates clothes shopping even more so now.

Actually Peebee, cup sizes increase as the strap size decreases.... So a 32E is pretty much the same as a 34D....

Do not ask why I know this kind of thing

I've always had problems with clothes - when I was at my lightest of 9 1/2 stone I had something daft like a 27-28inch waist but a 36 inch arse which meant nothing fit.
Even at my heaviest of somewhere over mumblemumble13 1/2 stonemumblemumble my waist was 32 inches but my arse was somewhere around 50 inches

Now I'm losing weight I've gone down to *goes to find tape measure* 30inch waist (mebbe 29.5) and a 40 inch arse.

In basic talk it means anything that fits across my arse leaves me enough room for a tribe of pygmies to live around the waist band

Pheebs · 02-09-2007, 20:40

I thought that too dym but I did a lot of comparing with 32 E and 34 DD's and 32 DD's... and for some reason 32 E seemed to be much bigger (when holding the bras together!)

THough the range of bras I was trying were from the "bustier" range and the "normal" range. "Normal" bras are actually smaller entirely. Scarily some of the E cups didn't even fit me (too small! Eak!)

Weird. Weird weird weird.

OOOh incidently, Picky found out for me the other day that "average D sized boobs weigh 6 - 8lbs!"

That means mine must weigh a tad more which means if I chop off my boobs I will be well below my ideal weight! Yaaaaaaay!

Tak - big butts are great - manufacturers uber suck and don't realise that.
