Found clothes that work!

[KnottedYet]

I just had to buy pants for my new job. I have a hard time finding chinos or twills that don't make me look like I have even bigger hips and thighs than I already do.

Went to Coldwater Creek in desperation (I need GROWN UP pants, not "see the top of my thong underwear" teenager pants!) and found their "Aspen" chinos fit nicely. Not too gappy at the waist, cover my underwear (but still below my belly button), and roomy enough at the hips. Spandex in the fabric, too.

Hey, I like these! I'm not sure how many of these will fit me since I normally take petite sizes, but I'll definitely have a look - this is my style of clothing for sure. Thanks for the pointer!

Wow, nice site, I really like their skorts! I to have a problem trying to find clothes that fit right, with a small waist and fuller hips it's awful. Thank you for the link, I've already ordered a few things!

cute!!!

Has anyone ordered/bought one of their dresses? I really need dresses for summer, along with shirts. I'm tall so shirts tend to expose more than I want midriff-wise and dresses can be fairly short.

I'm at that awkward stage where I'm too old for "teen/young adult" clothes (and they are starting to not fit well anyway) and too young to be matronly. It's a difficult task to find clothes sometimes!

Hey, we're all too young to be matronly! LOL

I'm having to sit on my hands (well, okay, that's hyperbole) to stop from ordering stuff. I see several things I'd love to wear when I go to Hawaii -- but I'm not going until September and I'm hoping to be in a smaller size by then!

And we all know the risk of ordering smaller assuming it will fit. Gulp.

Ooooh, those clothes would be perfect for Hawaii! How long will you be there? Fun...I have yet to go and heard it is absolutely wonderful.

Starfish, when does matronly happen? It scares me. It seems like not all that long ago I could shop in any store in the mall and be ok but now I feel a bit out of place. I honestly feel like someone is going to put their arm around me kindly and direct me to the pull-on polyester pants department. They will dress me in lime green with some kind of sequined baggy top.
