Hourglass figure. Where to shop?

I'm curvy, an hourglass shape. I'm typically a size 4 occasionally a size 6 but I can rarely find cute everyday clothes that fit me right. I wind up in fitted capris and gap or target plain tees all summer and skinny jeans, high boots and fitted plain sweaters all Winter. I'm a SAHM, so I don't need a ton of dressy clothes but I'd like to update my everyday wardrobe with some classic pieces so I'm not always in plain jeans and sweaters... Dress me please... LOL. Where should I go for cute clothes that fit my figure?

I am annoyingly hourglassy too! Little waist, big a$$ Chat Icon

I shop at Loft and wear the Julie fit. Its the only style that fits my hips and isn't HUGE in the waist as a result.

I am an hourglass size 4 and I love New York and company. Their stuff is very fitted and feminine. Not always the greatest quality but holds up for a season at least, and not too much $$$. The Limited is good too.

I also love Jessica Simpsons line for dressier stuff. They sell it at Macy's and it pops up on Ideeli sometimes.

I have that issue as well. I've started to bring even brand new pants to the tailor to have them taken in at the waist!

Also, I've started wearing low rise pants so there's been less of a waist problem.

I'm a size 2 hourglass. I love vintage styles. They knew how to fit a curvy figure back then! Modcloth and Bettie Page Clothing are fantastic.

Hour glass but far from a size 4 and I have to have everything tailored. With the exception of fit & flare vintage style dresses .......everything else. So annoying!

I'm a 10-12 hourglass and love pants from Banana Republic. I love the Jackson and Sloan styles.

Re: Hourglass figure. Where to shop?

I'm a size two hourglass. I have had tons of luck lately with Express jeans, I think the Madison cut. Cute styles and colors.

Skinny jean styles with some lycra have been working really well for my small waist/thicker legs and butt figure.

Seven for all mankind usually fit pretty well for me. I have terrible luck at NY & Co for pants. They never have my size and if they do, I always have to have them tailored at the waist.
