[QUOTE="Chronicle_Cat, post: 1962287, member: 486327"] [QUOTE="SaskiaKC, post: 1962144, member: 487111" My next step is to start replacing tops that are now too big, but for those I will wait until I can go into the store and try things on, since sizes don't run consistently across brands. There is one wonderful online vendor whose clothes are true-size but whose pants (trousers?) run long. Even when they give the inseam, it's too long on me. But it is nice to buy their L instead of other vendors' XL. :) It definitely gets expensive. I had just ordered those new jeans when my printer ran out of ink and right now I need to make several copies for the renewal of my lease. I tried to cancel the jeans order but was thankful it was too late and didn't go through because I need the jeans too. So I bit the bullet and ordered the ink cartridge on credit.

It is harder to find plus sizes in them, I do find as I've gotten smaller, there is considerably more choice and I enjoy shopping more. Both the top and the bottom in my avatar are from the thrift store. I do buy clothes at Walmart sometimes, especially socks and underwear. George clothes are fine, I do buy them at Walmart.
