I was talking with a woman the other day about post-holiday shopping, and she described an incredible dress she found on sale. It was a classic style by Diane von Furstenberg and it "fit like a glove." So, of course she purchased it, right? No. The reason she did not buy this killer dress is that she could not believe she was "that size."
Ladies, have you noticed that the clothing in your closet is not sized consistently? That is because each designer has her or his own way of sizing, and there are no concrete guidelines that they all follow. Consequently, I have some size 0 pants, some size 6 petite pants, and a size 10 skirt. They all fit beautifully. If I refused to try on that lovely black pencil skirt because I could not bear the size on the label, I would have missed out on a terrific purchase.
So, when you go to try on some clothing, it is a good idea to bring the size you think you would be in the dressing room, as well as a size up. Who cares what the label says? You can always cut it out later if it really bothers you!
