Undies

[kennedia_nigricans]

I buy them 2 sizes up, otherwise they cut into my flesh.

Is there anyone out there who wears the same undie size as their normal size is?

No, i can't be bothered to make pictures. MAYBE tomorrow if at all.

Wearing polyester is like wearing Glad wrap 🙂

They often have 40% off all stock. that is when I buy their stuff.  I don't know why they don't make 100% cotton track pants anymore...as you say the full cost of the poly/cotton ones are too high.

I'm surprised that they have gone that way because I thought that sizes were going to be standardised.

If you buy a designer piece of clothing (and I'm not bragging because I rarely do) then the sizes seem to be bigger.  A size 10 is more like a department store size 12.  It kind of puts me off buying online because you just dont know if things will fit.

I have found that too Joono. 

Could the changes in some department stores being noticed now perhaps be the result of a review of standardisation ?

Past tense of sew would be sewed?

Sow is also - sow (plant) a seed

with vintage clothing ..the sizing is often 2 sizes smaller .Our 'standard' size has become more generous overall than it once was.

Could be crikey, if you have 'patterned' undies.

I take a very large size and I was unable to go shopping due to back problems and my mother phoned me from Target to tell me the colour choice in  the jumpers and she said they had a sizw 28 so I decided to get the 28s because I really like loose clothing.

All of them were so tiny so I went to the Target website and the size 28 clothing my mother bought was actually smaller than the measurements given for their size 26.

However I do buy the correct size knickers (I think) but with the cheap Chinese bras on ebay you need to go up about 3 cup sizes and 2 sizes.

they have $9 bras in k right now in really nice colourful pattern but i was too lazy to try them on.
