Ladies that are 5'3 - Question

Options
Hey ladies,

I am curious, as a fellow 5'3 I am wondering, if anyone around 135lbs can wear a size 3/4 in American size jeans? What size is your waist and hips?

I am asking this because I'm currently wearing 5/6 I thought it was my jeans are stretch jeans but I put on the other 3 pair I have that are not stretch and they keep falling off me and I can stick my fist in them even buttoned up fresh out of the drier. I just can't picture myself in a 3/4 already. I know "Why don't you just go try them on." I do plan on it but I am just curious if this is even possible and yes I know it depends where we portion our weight. I'm what is called rectangular shape. However recently I am starting to see a form of maybe an hour glass but I'm still rectangular.

Thanks for the help in advance :)

    Everybody's different, when I weighed 115 lbs I was hard pressed to fit a 5/6 but I've got a lot of weight in my backside. You sound a bit more evenly proportioned, go ahead and try it. Besides, pant sizes are so inconsistent these days with everything being made overseas.

    All bodies are different. I'm 5'3-5'4 and 136 and would laugh if someone handed me a 3/4! :laugh: On that note. I'm wearing a size 10 but they are too big, but am afraid to try on a 8 and have them be too small. Maybe your feeling the same? Either way, look at you! You have don't AWESOME!! WTG

    well that's awesome no? do you not want to try a size 4? sounds like you are there. well i'm 5'3" (112 lbs). waist: 26 & hips: 34. i wear a sz 4. i'm small frame so although "some" people would say i "sound" too small, if you met me in person naked (lol) you would see i'm very petite & could stand to tone up & drop the skinny fat look. i wear skinny jeans & fit them but have that dreaded mommy muffin top. my body is still clinging onto the hips & belly fat but enough about me. hope this helps??

    My waist is a size 30 and my hips 35. I just did a jean catalog chart and according to it I'm between 5/6 and 3/4 but looks like I can fit into 3/4, I am gonna go try some on after my first shift today if I have time before my 2nd shift.

    I do want to be a 3/4 but since I have never been able to even stick my big toe into a size 3/4 I'm scared that I'm gonna pick it up and laugh. Silly I know, I have never worn a 5/6 in my life either, the smallest before kids I ever was, was a 9/10. I bought my first 7/8's the week before I found out I was pregnant with my son lol.

    Sadly not even dreaming of that size right now. I'm 5'3 and I'm still in a 10, making my way down to an 8. I'd try the next size down, but don't be disappointed if it doesn't fit!
