Where Do You Shop For Clothes?

[quote name='VeraMaria' date='Aug 23 2004, 05:01 PM'] I can never ever find pants long enough. I have really long legs, and by the time I find pants that are long enough to go to my feet, they're huge around the waist (like the 3 Junior ugh) [/quote]
I know that problem VERY well. The only solution I've found is to find brands of pants that come in a long. I finally found jeans that fit me right at Old Navy. I'm very envious of short ppl who never have that problem.

I really liked the Great fall Coverup article too.

I used to always shop at the Gap and Old Navy outlet malls when I lived in Texas... I also like Ross. But now that I am married and my husband is in school, my favorite place is Value Village (I checked goodwill, but we don't have that here). Value Village is the awesomest thrift store ever. There is a Local Big Brothers and Big Sisters clud that will give you a half off coupon anytime you donate clothes to them, so I make a donation and then head to Value Village for a shopping spree. There are tons of things from Gap and Old Navy and lots of other brand names I like. And once they are half price I pay only 1 to 3 bucks for each item! Yay me! Also, I have stocked up on maternity clothes. Really cute ones! Hooray!

.... of course short people (I know firsthand ) usually have to hem up their pants, because everything is too long!

i always say at least you can hem them, they never leave any material in the bottom in case u have to make them longer

3 and five are big, but 5 is long enough for my legs, lol.

I do have "meat on my bones" (haha really funny american expression ) thank you very much

Whatever, you skinny little wimp.

I remember when I used to fit into a double zero... I was in fifth grade. Now I wear my pants about five inches below my belly button (not immodestly, mind you - my t-shirts never, ever reveal anything) so I have to get them in like a seven or even a nine... in which case I have an excess of about six inches of pant leg on each side.

Look who's talking

You can gladly have my legs, I hate having long legs!! Especially in airplanes etc, very uncomfortable!

[MarieCecilia]

How tall are you Vera? I have a friend who is 6'1" I think and she would agree with you.

I like Gap alot for some reason....not a big shopper.

[Iacobus]

I am very tall. 170.18!!!

[VeraMaria]

I'm 5'8.

Jacob uses cm to feel tall

I was forced to vote "other" because Motherhood Maternity wasn't listed. You know, It's really kinda sad when your maternity clothes out-number your regular clothes!! Hey, my materity clothes even out-style my regular clothes because they are out of fashion now!!

I don't shop for clothes, I make them myself from the wool I shear from the sheep I keep in the backyard.....





Seriously..

Mostly Kohls, followed by Target, Sears, REI, and Sportmart.

I don't shop at Old Navy, and after hearing about the following incident at a local Old Navy store, I'm not inclined to start:

lol Motherhood is my favorite maternity store! They actually have size small that FITS a smaller woman. At every other store even the petite smalls are like a bag!
