Boyfriend jeans. They look so cute and comfy on other people but I guess I am too petite for them and look like a little kid in clothes that don't fit right. I keep buying them and returning them!

Re: If only I could wear ________

Pumps!

For the life of me I can't find a pair that fits, doesn't kill my feet, and that I am not walking out of.

I think it's my instep...i think i have a high instep and it causes a pump to just not fit my foot right and I am stepping out of them. It's like wearing a flip flop, it just flops right off the back

Because I can wear high heeled sandals and high heeled boots with no issues- but the moment the shoe is a closed toe pump, it's a no go.

Not to mention I have a wide foot and even wide widths (which are hard to find in the first place) are too narrow and kill my feet.

I can't tell you how many pairs of pumps I have bought and returned.

So frustrating!!!

If only I could wear ________

Cute flat shoes, like ballet flats. My foot is pretty big and I feel like they make my foot look so much bigger.

Ugh, it's a long list. Chat Icon

I'm really tall with a big chest and size 12 feet (thankfully not wide or I'd be really screwed), so my clothing & shoe options are very limited. Chat Icon

Try tieks! They are pricey but I feel the same way about a lot of flats and these are cute!

Agreed. I have a large chest and they hug all my curves, which makes me feel like a store mannequin (or like I'm hiding two cantaloupes in my shirt).

Re: If only I could wear ________

Somewhat form fitting dresses.
I'm very curvy - but not the right kind of curves.

This.
I'll wear them sometimes and say F it but inside I feel like my feet look like canoes

ETA: I also agree with PPs with sweater dresses.
I have a curvy shape that looks pretty good in some fitted dresses. Except sweater dresses. I feel like princess Fiona - the ogar version of course. I put those on and automatically gain 20 lbs
Terrible.

Most sweater dresses are not flattering unless you are a stick I find.
They cling to ALL the wrong places.
If you have ONE thing you want to hide, the dress will hone RIGHT in on it!

They really do!! And I want so badly to be able to wear them because I love the way they look... on the hanger.

Exactly. I tried one on recently and bought it because it looked good in the store, but I got home and it looked awful.

Also, I cannot buy shirts in Kohls. I try on all different kinds of tops and they all look terrible on me.

Agreed. Even if you are pretty thin, they can be terribly unflattering. I have a small waist and have a heavy sweater dress on today but my midsection seriously looks like a tree trunk in it Chat Icon

Re: If only I could wear ________

Regular knee high boots. I have muscular calves and need a wide shaft on almost all boots. It sucks having to pass up on cute boots because they're too tight on my calves.

I also have wide feet and have trouble finding cute comfortable shoes in general. I always try on a lot of shoes and maybe find 1 or 2 pairs.
