Clothing Sizes

I walked into an Esprit store yesterday and could once again fit into their Size 14. I had to try on a few different styles in this size, just to make sure that I really was a 14 (they varied) and then I rewarded myself by buying the best looking pair. Unfortunately this means that I am still having trouble buying clothes because of the inconsistent sizing but at least I have much more choice now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINDA

Fantastic Mary! You must be feeling very sleek and proud of yourself. Their size 14 is like a size 12 really. Lots more fun shopping when you are a size 14.

Those clothes are so tiny! Well done! Great fun trying on clothes now isn't it.

Whoooo Hoooooo. That is brilliant. Who cares if the sizing is inconsistent. As long as it is a 14. LOL. You are doing so well. Hmmm And there seems to be a growing number of posts about you shopping. Found a new sport have you ;)

I hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Well done on getting back into size 14! That's fantastic news!

Esprit clothes are crazy sizes. I have several pairs of black trousers from there, one pair is so baggy (size 14) that I just can't wear them anymore. But another size 14 pair I've only just been able to find my way back into! Their shirts are odd too.

I find most clothing chains have weird sizes. What qualifies as a 12 in a women's shop can qualify as a 16 in a shop geared towards late teens/early 20 somethings. I wish the fashion industry could come up with a standard, it's a bit annoying being anywhere between a 12 to a 16!

Yay! Go you!!

We might have to start a clothes exchange blog to keep up with all you shrinking folk! It'll make the 'tweening' between dress sizes easier on the pocket.
