What size are your "skinny" jeans?

Ok, confess! Do you have clothes in your closet that are too small but you just can't bear to get rid of them? Things that you wore in the past but now have pushed to the back of the closet while you work to lose the extra weight?

What item(s) do you have in your closet that you just can't wait to put on again?

My "skinny" clothes are only a size 14/16. I bought those when I lost weight in 2008 but only wore them a short time before I started gaining again.

I have 2 suit jackets that I bought in a size 14 that I never wore. They still have the tags on them because I bought them in anticipation of being able to wear them. Never happened... :tongue:

One of these days I will get them on and they will fit correctly. Let's just hope they are actually in style by then! :bigsmile:

    I wish that I could wear my old Army Class A jacket. I was a seven then. (sigh)

    I have a pair of kinda goal pants, but they are one size smaller than the pants im wearing right now...maybe they shrunk in the wash...becuase they are the same/smaller than all my other pants and I can barely get them past my knees

    I kept a pair of jeans for 8 years waiting to get back in them. They were a 7 jr. I have passed that and now am in a tight 4 or a 6 in some cases.

    Unfortunately the skinny jeans i'm holding onto are a size 24 (European) which is around a 00 or 0 comparatively. I think I should ditch those and aim for a sz 2

    mine were a size 3/4 but got sick of them not fitting...so I donated them. Now they are a 6 which kind of fit, but still have the stomach I can't seem to get rid of.

    I would love to share jeans with my daughter, she is a Misses size 12 but dont think these hips will ever fit misses, or mens jeans for that matter so....I think womens size 10 would be awesome! In high school I always wore a size 12, would love to conquer that!

    Oh my, I have a whole 'nother closet full of 'skinny' clothes just waiting for me to squeeze back into them. Most are size 5 to 7 jeans and all of my 'small' cute tops...I just cant wait!

    I would love to get in a size 12! Just a few pounds away. Hopefully by the end of the year, I'll be able to fit in a size 6 or 4 :D

    Usually a size 7 in juniors is what I'm aiming for... but now I feel like I'm starting to get to the age where I should be shopping in the womans section. I have a pair of womens size 4 jeans that I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to be able to zip up again! They were my favs :)

    My current "skinny" jeans are size 16W.
    My ultimate challenge is that pair of size 14 Air Force fatigue pants I wore when I was 22 years old.

    It's weird because my little jacket that I've been trying to fit into is actually a size large. I am pretty solidly a medium now (and lean towards a small), but this stupid jacket is tight on me. I kept trying it on and seeing if it would fit. I finally was able to zip it up and then the slider fell off! I mean, how does that even freaking happen?!?

    The smallest ones I have in my closet are an 18 but I'm thinking of buying a new smaller pair just to have, just in case ;)

    I'm in a 7/8 now (I recently purchased some jr. skinny jeans). I'm actually in better shape (physically) than I have been since my early 20's. I haven't tried on the cute little skirts I kept but plan on it soon.

    To royam01. As long as you can fit into Junior clothes (hips can get in the way) wear them! I do. I shop the women's section for some nice work clothes but a lot of them are just a little too "frumpy" for me.

    I guess I would like to be a solid 0 or small 2 for jeans. (24-25 in designer jeans)

    Sizes have changed so much even in the last 10 years that I don't trust the sizing now. I think a size 2-4 ,10 years ago, is a size 0-2 now.

    Vanity sizing has taken over!!!!! Bleh.

    My skinny jeans were a pair of size 8's! I tried them last night and they fit perfect!! SO HAPPY because I've kept them for about 5 years now because these are my favorite pair of jeans I've ever owned!

    The "skinny" clothes that I have that still don't fit are size 4. I have some size 6's that I can squeeze into but wouldn't wear because they are too tight. I am comfortable in size 8 right but want to get to that skinny size pretty soon.

    Skinny skirts size 12's from way back.
    Just bought a pair of skinny jeans in a size 8 to inspire me.
