the hardest to fit/find

What is the hardest to buy?

I say Jeans and Bras

For me that is the bane of my existence...followed closely by bathing suits.

Pants! Any kind! I have a huge waist, small butt and skinny legs Chat Icon

Either the pants fit but the waist won't button, or they button and the butt part is sagging down.

Bras and button down shirts. I'm short and have a huge chest. I can never find button down shirts that fit properly.

Re: the hardest to fit/find

jeans for sure

I just spent the last 2 weeks trying on over 50 different styles of jeans and I hit the jackpot finally, buying 5 pairs of jeans at National Jean Co.

3 Sevens, 1 Paige, and 1 J brand.

I am in my glory. Unfortunately though they do have to be hemmed, I hate that.

Pants in general. They are always too long. I am 5'7", but I am short legged (and have a long torso!). Every pair of pants I buy needs to be hemmed.

Usually Limited or Express. I always have to get them tailored though. I finally found a pair of jeans that look ok (Citizens) but they are still a little baggy in the legs, not sure what I'm going to do about that. I'm still on a quest to find the perfect fitting pair/brand of pants! It is so frustrating...hoping that if I lose a few more pounds I'll even out somewhat. Like I am a full size smaller in the butt/legs than I am at the waist Chat Icon
What brands do you wear?

ETA: I recently bought a pair of Kate fit pants from Victoria's Secret which are OK...not so baggy in the legs.

ITA execpt i am on the other side of the spectrum, 5' 2", 100 lbs. one would think it would easy for someone of my size to find clothes but it is quite the opposite.

even though i am a size 0/24, i have the easiest time with jeans.

Re: the hardest to fit/find

Re: the hardest to fit/find

jeans are definately the hardest. I am short & need petite jeans or they drag...

Pants are a close second. I guess that is what happens when you are short with big thighs (thanks to my gymnastics days)

Same here - any kind of pants really. I hate having to buy work pants 2 sizes up so they fit my butt/hips (with 1 size up it looks like I'm heading out to the clubs Chat Icon) and then I to have to pay a tailor to take them in at the waist.

ETA: And I usually have to have them shortened too since I'm not tall.
