True to size !

Im wearing some cute eggplant colored cuffed capri pants today

I got the capris from a labels for less type of store but the original price ticket said
Lane Bryant.


Im wondering in your experience what store would you say has the sizing of their clothes closer to accurate where I can test these waters and this body for sure.

That way it can give me give me something to work toward or make my day totally

A sista needs to know these things for sure !!!

How secure are you in your clothes when it comes to the sizes....cause I know that the manufactors are making things bigger these days to accomodate the larger portion sizes that we consume.

Thanks !

But when I saw these $44 capri's for less than $10.....and they were cute I had to jump on them.

I wasnt sure they would fit...but figured if I continued to work my thing they would eventually and low and behold they slid on today with ease

Your response is like music to my ears........and has made my day.

Alls I know is I wont be able to tell these hips nothing today

Keep me posted on the clothes you get....I would love to know how you made out.
I dont have the funds to shop the way I want these days...so Im kinda pieceing my wardrobe together and venturing into the different sizes along the way bit by by........

Good luck on the hunt!! lol But for real if you ever really wanna see your "true" size, try on wedding dresses. They in no way shape or form have conformed to vanity sizing!
