Hands down it would have to be dresses. I usually have to go up 2 or 3 sizes because of the size of my chest so it never fits right on the rest of my body. Prom dress shopping was the worst...I remember sitting in the dressing room crying.



Same here! I wish I could find dresses that look good on me.

Pants - I despise them. I could live in dresses, skirts, and sweats (at home only!)

Boots...my calves don't look gigantic but they're muscular enough that I almost never expect them to zip all the way up. I have to order online so I can see the calf circumference.

Re: What item of clothing is always difficult for you to buy?

PANTS! Hence why it is VERY rare that I wear them.
I find that they never fit my thighs- I have disproportionately thicker thighs.
And I just feel gross in them

And of course:
JEANS- I have yet to find a pair that aren't frumpy but that don't show my entire azz crack!! Chat Icon

Jeans!!! HANDS DOWN. I either have high waist mom jeans that keep everything in, or I have low rise muffin top jeans.

I just hate shopping now, and I used to be such a fashionista.

Ditto

And shoes. I am a size 10.5. Most brands only have 1/2 sizes up to 10 and then it jumps to 11. Also I have A bone spur on the top of my feet so many shoes aren't comfy. Chat Icon

Dress pants & bathing suits.

Strapless bras are near impossible but I found one the other day at Nordies Rack (natori=heaven)




yes...bathing suits. I have a big chestChat Icon so finding the right top is so hard that gives good support and coverage.

Re: What item of clothing is always difficult for you to buy?

Jeans. I'm short enough that I usually need to get them hemmed, and I have a booty, which smaller size jeans are apparently not cut to accomodate. I can't even find a well-fitting brand to stay loyal to, because it seems like fewer and fewer stores carry "petite" lengths anymore, and the fit/styles change from season to season now.

I have a few pairs I've owned for years & they're starting to wear out... I'm dreading having to replace them. Jean shopping is an exercise in frustration for me. It takes forever to find something that actually fits, and then it's not even gratifying when I finally buy a pair, because I still have to go take them to the tailor before I can wear them!

Bathing suits, I only wear 1 pieces, so my tits are either popping out because it suffocates them or it's so loose around the rest of me that I could hula hoop

Everything.

I'm 6'1" with a size 12 shoe. Things just aren't made for my size. Period. And I used to be a 36G/H...which was another challenge.


I've been shopping online for pretty much everything for over 10+ years. It was all catalog shopping prior to that.


When something fits or works on me, I tend to buy it in multiples, whether it's the same color or different colors...but I try and buy backups.

Re: What item of clothing is always difficult for you to buy?

Oh I have to add one- SHOES.

I have a super wide foot- so it's nearly impossible to find cute, sexy shoes that also come in a Wide width.
Not to mention I'm tall so I don't like any more than a 3 inch heel tops- so forget it.
It's rare to find a shoe that fits right, doesn't KILL my feet, and doesn't look like it was made for a grandma!

Re: What item of clothing is always difficult for you to buy?

Absolutely hands down- BATHING SUITS! I HATE trying to find bikinis that support my chest and dont look like an old ladies bathing suit...

And jeans come in a distant second... Everything right now is skinny jeans and I LOVE the look... Boots over jeans, ankle boots, or even cute ballet flats BUT skinny jeans areny my best look... And I have to stick to the darker colors...
