Lol...it doesn't really matter where I shop because EVERY single pant that I try on is too long for me, even some in the little girls section! :eek:Quote:

19.99 for regular pants,
21.99 for 'extended sizes'
Send 34.99 to Lee Jeans with your size for your custom fit pants.
I have to pay 35 dollars for slacks that are sitting on a shelf in the factory.
---------------------------------------------
I have a hard time finding any kind of slacks/pants for 'dressy-dress' time at work.....I like my jeans......that's all I wear anyway..
I won't buy out of a catalogue...most of the time the darn things do not fit.
For shirts I HAVE to buy double extra large TALL.....If I buy XXL shirts I may as well shave my belly and get a piercing.:eek:
ugh.
LOL...oh my gosh, that is SO funny. Sorry it made me laugh! :D I can just see it! lol... :pQuote:

I have a hecka of a job getting shirts for my hubby, he is six feet tall and very thin, nothing is long enough, I have to buy a bigger shirt to get the length in the body and arms, and then they are way to big elsewhere, I can usually find something but it is a job in a half.
As for pants, I have the same problem Miranda Rae as you, I am only 5 foot 2 and half inches tall, what gets me is I cannot sew, so I have to pay to get them taken up, so that adds ten dollars to the price GRR., but i sure can empathise with those girls who are extra tall as well.
Check out oldnavy.com also another good one for long jeans is www.newport-news.comQuote:

I guess I should mention that though I love low rise jeans, I am considerate enough to wear a nice long shirt over them:D :D I have no delusions of granduer, these love handles are here to stay:D :rolleyes:
Miranda, i think i need to come where you are and go shopping! ;)
Im 5'7 and weigh 111 and i can NEVER find clothes that fit me BOTH in the waist and length. It bothers me SOOO much, and i always go home fustrated, although i love to shop! The pants that i try on always are either to big in the waist and too short in the length or too small in the waist and too long in the length. It's really annoying.... I would LOVE to be short and thicker.. :p
If I have the money to spend, I love shopping for clothes. I used to hate it, because I didn't know what I really looked good in. I'm a small person, 5'1, 115 lbs, and, I don't put up that much of a front, if you know what I mean. ;) But, since about two years ago, I know what I like on me, what fits me, what I'm comfortable in. So, I enjoy shopping more than I used to. Jeans are hard, though, because I'm so incredibly picky. It used to be harder, though, before they came out with hipsters. I used to have such a hard time finding jeans that would fit over my butt and, not be huge in the waist. But, that's the grand thing about hipsters, I buy them so that my rear looks cute, and, just pull them down close to my hips, and, a little lower if need be. No worries about the waist anymore. and, I love my jeans long. I wear the same size inseam as my brother, and, he's 6 feet tall! :) If I cross my legs (like where my ankle is over my knee, does that make sense?), I hate if you can see the top of my shoes or my socks. Yeah, I'm weird! :)
I am short and "thicker" although people are always telling me that I am thin :rolleyes: (whatever!). Wow, you must be really slender! Go ahead and come shop here....you'll have a blast. ;)Quote:

I HAAAAAATE shopping too!!! All kinds, except surfing the web.:D I'm 5' 8 1/2" and about 125 lbs...so I can usually find stuff that fits, but I hate wearing tight, short, and uncomfortable clothes!! I ALWAYS go for what's comfortable, NOT what's in style, and I really don't have that many shirts and jeans, etc. since I almost NEVER go shopping!! lol :D;):o I'll just wear the same stuff over and over (washing of course) but you get what I mean!(hehe):)
I must say one good thing about the low rises...I was able to stay out of maternity clothes for much longer! I am almost 6 months pregnant and can still wear come of my old jeans. When I was pregnant last time, I had to start wearing maternity clothes at 3 months pregnant.
I forgot about that part. I have huge hips and a tiny waist, so I had prblems with that too. Come to think of it, all I could wear was men's Levi's before hipsters came out.Quote:

Don't feel bad Miranda, so do I!! It reminds me of how FAT I am!!
I hate clothes shopping. I'm 5'4" so to short for reg. clothes, but to tall for the petite clothes. Living in Florida I buy a lot of sundresses because there just easier, throw them on and out the door I go. (yes, I'm lazy ;)) But even with a sundress, before I can wear them I have to adapt them some, if there are not to long then they are made for woman with huge arm pits. lol I swear almost all the ones I get have arm wholes the size of my head. In the winter.....I hate winter just because I have to buy pants. I'm stuck with them being so long they drag or else I look like I'm waiting for a flood.
Boy do I miss the days before my accident when I was skinnier....Then I loved clothes shopping. I still had the length problem, but at least I felt like I looked good..... now I'm just a purse shopper. :D
