A tight 8

I walked around all day being grumpy because all my nice forgiving stretchy pants were dirty and I had to dig out one of the size 10 pairs of jeans that I have not been able to wear since about last October. I was so mad that they were still so snug in the waist after 4 months of this I almost murdered someone.

Turns out that they are not size 10 jeans, they are size eight jeans that I forgot I even had! I am a tight EIGHT, not a tight ten!!!

    Well in all fairness they are wranglers, which are a little more generous than other brands in the back, lol. But still excited.

    Good for you! Isn't it crazy how those numbers can make such a big difference?

    Congrats! I don't get hung up on sizes because every brand and every style is different. I can have 3 sizes of clothes that all fit the same!

    I am pretty much a uniform medium for tops, and for bottoms I will be pretty consistant across brands (If i wear a ten in jeans, I can put on any ten, it is just an issue of whether they are comfry or not.) The one exception is that i can usually go down a size if the jeans are build for people who have bums (so usually cowgirl jeans: wrangler, levi, dickies, etc)
