    I dunno..sizing must vary from place to place because I'm looking at some of these and feeling dumbfounded (and fat!)

    Height: 5'3"
    Weight: 130
    Size: comfortable in a 10, just moving into my 8s.

    Six years ago I was a size 26 though. I have no idea how much I weighed because I refused to get on a scale.

    i feel ya
    i feel like im being lied to by the stores

    macys 7 differnt brands a size 10 fit me PERFECTLY
    the 12's were a little too lose and you could tell after wearing them for an hour or so
    they would loosen up out way too much

    but my size 11 jrs are still pretty tight
    yet the 10 in macys fit perfect
    i dont get itttttt
    then other people size 10 are like thirty pounds less than i am???

    Thats cause we are all built differently .... some of us are curvier and some of us are more muscular ... all these determine our weight... you cant judge a whole lot on weight...

    Sizes are so strange.

    When I started here I was 190 and had one pair of jeans in size 14 that fit and 2 dress pants in 16 that fit at waist but were a little baggy in the booty and front. I am now 172 and can just get into my other size 14 jeans and my original size 14s need a belt to keep them up.

    My top is L-XL

    I think clothing that is sized in odd numbers 7-9-11 etc. are all Junior sizes and cut a little shorter in the stride and a bit thinner in the hip. Clothing sized in even numbers 8-10-12 etc. are women's sizes. They are typically cut a little fuller in the hip and leg, with a bit longer stride. That's why sometimes a 10 fits great while an 11 is too small:wink:

    I am a little under 5'3"
    Weight 195
    Size 16 pant and either an 18 or XXL top (yep, I'm top heavy too - have been since like 7th grade:ohwell: )

    lulubar, you are right on the sizing. I know some young women who do not want to wear misses sizes but would get a better fit if they did rather than trying to stay in the junior section.
