Hating my NSVs these days. Appreciate some help

Your pictures aren't very helpful in trying to understand what you describe. You look typical. I don't see where your body is so out of the norm. But to help you out, you should try Nordstrom.com for hard to find bra's.

Yeah, I don't tend to post my belly kid top flood pant pictures showing off my gut rolls, sorry. I'm sure I have some around tho lol. There's a pic of a pair of cargo shorts that are nearly falling off of me (I actually had to tuck down my underwear) because the size smaller cut off my circulation. The pink shorts I'm wearing are suppose to lay on your hips in my profile pic. The're elastic though so they start off there and slide up to about where they are in that pic. The size large did the same thing except they weren't tight enough around my waist so there was just a pair of pants sliding up my body and half of it wasn't touching me so I went for the mediums. That's actually why I cut the rest of the pic off. It looked like I was wearing Erkle pants.

I wear a 32F and like bras from the brand "Panache" sold on barenecessities.com, I own 4 of their bras in the same size and they all fit the same way (true to my measurements), so I say if you really are confident on the size order from them online.

When you say you are 28DD, what does that mean? My measurement around my ribs is actually 29.5 but that translates to 32 in the bra world.

I totally get the bra issue too. I'm a 32G but I wear a 34DD/E because they're easier to find. It's still hard to find ones that look right though! Go to a bra boutique. They cary all kinds of crazy sizes.

Measurement around my bra band is 25 inches ->25+3 = 28 band length

Okay just checking before I recommend you buy a bunch of expensive 28DDs. I do recommend checking out Panache, I have never been happier with my big boobs lol.

For bras, you could try checking out Fredericks of Hollywood as well. My best friend is a 42DDD & orders bras from there online. She has a hard time finding her size, not to mention supportive bras.

The smallest they have is 32DD, far to big for me.

ADD:
Also I didn't add any pics. Was wondering if you were being a rude and saucy B!%@#, I guess this thread explains it:

The first thing I noticed is you're talking about jeans in odd number sizes, which is junior sizing. Junior's are cut for those with a straight up and down figure, so if you have a waist and hips, they're not going to work for you.

I'm typically a 7 or 9 in juniors, and they gap at the waist, but a 2 or 4 in misses fits properly.

Ok try Maurice's. They carry silver jeans which I noticed you said you like and they have a punch card system and awesome sales regularly. I am 5'9" with a 35" inseam so I feel your pain! But they're shirts are also pretty long. When I put them on they come down an inch or two past my belt. They do have some shirts that are too short for me but for the most part I can wear any of them.

Also if the price tag isn't an issue try the buckle. I buy the bke brand which is their store brand which makes them the cheapest but i honestly like them better than silvers. But the buckle never run sales worth my time which is why I go to maurice's....hope that helps!

Also....I saw these things on tv (you can get them at bed bath and beyond in their as seen on tv section). You wear them on the lower part of your torso and it looks like you are wearing a tank top under your shirt and gives the layering effect. Just a thought....

I have similar problems and have all of my life. I am only 5'4" but I have a 25 inch waist and 39 inch hips. Finding pants/jeans to fit is difficult. So, as one person said already go with misses sizes. Also, and I hate to say it but, find a good tailor. I resisted this for so many years, but as soon as I had some pants and even jeans altered by a good tailor I was sold. Buy pants that fit in the butt/thighs and length the way you want them and then bring them in for altering in the waist. Trust me.

Lucky Brand "sweet n low" jeans fit me pretty well, so try them if you haven't already.

Sorry, can't help on the bra. I am an odd size too, but I can usually get 32C to work for me.

Not juniors.

I have a couple long tank tops. The problem there is the shirts that are 2 short are often to wide...and to short for the long shirt thing...it just looks really wrong...Like I'm a square box or the shirt still looks overly short. I even tried black tank tops with black short tops.

Like I said I already tried 5 tailors. I even had stuff designed from scratch. Only one of those pants worked out. It's also rough because it's to big in the legs and waist if it fits in the bum.
