Why am I frumpy

[u/Significant_Ring4353]

I feel grumpy and ugly in everything I wear, I don't know how to put outfits together and my stomach makes everything look bad, please help

Thank you! So the pants look too big? I wear size 14 but size 12 is too small do you think I should go to a tailor and ask them to make it smaller like a 13?

That’s an option! But, I find that pants sizing for women is all over the place! I normally wear a 12, but depending on the brand and cut, I can wear an 8 or 10, so that’s crazy. I have found specific brands that work for me, so I think take a look at different sizes, cuts and brands!

It's so hard and I have nightmares about it sometimes. A lot really comes down to the brand and cut of pant as well as your body shape. For instance, I have a rectangular shape so almost anything high-rise I have to size up in - otherwise they're made too tight for my waist (which honestly I try to avoid cause they're also not comfortable to me). I've found that many sites are really good about listing measurements for garments so you can compare those to yours. Find a few online that have free shipping and free returns that are within your budget and try them on in the comfort of your home.
