Years Ago

I gave up the idea of purchasing women's clothing in the so-called standard sizing and now merely buy clothes in the XS-3x-sizing range. I stopped wearing dresses years ago, so it's mostly pants and tops. I also wear two different sizes, with a larger size on the bottom.

The fact my weight, like many people, fluctuates, makes buying standard sizes a complete waste of time and money. What is the point in buying clothing in three or four sizes depending on the time of year, as the weight gain is primarily in the winter months?

I also long, long ago quit buying anything with a tailored waist. It's elastic waistbands for me now and always, as my waist is almost nonexistent.

Best thing ever invented.
