size conscience

ok.. this is a funny dilemma (well not a dilemma)

when shopping for clothes, do u worry about the size (8,10,12,14 etc) that you wear, as in do u try to fit into the smallest possible u can breathe in and tell people “oh my, i wear bla bla size” or do u buy clothes that compliment your body, not worrying bout how “big” it may be to some other person?

Guilty as charged!

^ u dag

You look better in your actual size, however depressing it may be.

:sighing deeply:

It's nicer to fit in size 2 than 4 :P

im glad our size 2 and 4 here are reserved for infants :slight_smile:

hiccup, i know what u mean, but as long as u look good in it and ur flab aint bulging out from every corner, just to prove ur an 8-10.. then good on ya :k:

p.s: i bought a suit an hour ago, im so proud :slight_smile: i got it in a price i wouldnt normally be able to purchase even half a jacket

Heck! We even got size 0 ;-)

^ dont depress me!

Oh u silly goose. Every country has different size charts. Your size 8 is probably size 4 here.

I dont know what size I am anymore cause I wear mostly what mom makes me. In a way that isnt good because I could be gaining weight and not even knowing it. haw hai

However, I used to pretty much know my size before and buy in that size. I wont buy something I am not comfortable in.

probably... aussie sizes are sort of similar to UK sizes. I think

aww Munni, i know what you mean. I just buy my usual size regardless of how much weight ive lost or gained.

It's true that you do look better wearing the size that actually fits you but there's something psychologically pleasing about being able to get (or shoehorn) yourself into something thats a size or so smaller.

Sometimes I'll be buying clothes, take a look at the straining zip and just kid myself that I'll just not eat anything the day before wearing it out. Never works though.

whats ‘size conscience’…:konfused:

Its a term signifying exact-fittings for modesty. Have you heard about size-flirtations?

I think sadzz meant 'size conscious'?

^ same explanation applies.

Sadzz…i have clothes in sizes 8,10,12,14. All this sizing system is codswallop. And i don’t care about the number on the label aslong as i feel thinnish. When i feel bigggggggg i’ll start worrying then :hehe:

it depends on from store to store. i dont really care about sizes, as long as it fits properly and i am comfortable with it.

what ever happened to L, XL, XXL ???
