    But what a righteous rant, Cassandra! My size has not changed (sadly) from last year to this year, but I'm having to get a whole different size in Terry shorts this season. I am not amused!

In regular clothes i am somewhere between size 6 to sometimes size 8 depending on the brand. just for comparison here are my pictures in these shorts so you can judge yourself http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=8084

    Great photos. :-) We are very similar in size, only you look better. I am a 26 1/2" waist and my hips are 35 1/2"...odd shape-me not you!

    I bought a set of cannondale bike shorts (the whole mtbchick outfit actually :P ), and was helped over the phone by one of the great TE staffers. I would not buy shorts online otherwise, except TE folks are awesome!
    You go with the rant. I could go on and on about the sizing of women's clothing, but will spare everyone.

    I need to order online, which is wy I ask so many clothing questions. The bike stores around me carry guys clothing, and little kid clothing, but no womens.

    Well I'll go on just a little, tiny bit ok?

    So how am I say, size 8 at Tar-get, size 10 at New York & Co, but a 14 in, oh, Diesel or D & G?

    As if we didn't have enough things to keep us on our toes - let's play the ever-changing size games. Different store, different size. Different year, different size. Damn, different color, different size~

    Target cannot fit me, 6s too large in the waist, 4 (my thighs laugh at 4s). NY&C I am a 6. My all time rant is GAP. I go from a tight 6, to a nice fit 6, to a too loose in the waist falling down my butt 6- AND that is all in the same style jean.

    Augh!
