OK it's me again, but I have to vent a wee bit. Went to to fav store to see if I could find something new to cloth this shrinking body of mine with. Found a pair of black dress trousers in my size, a black cotton jersey jacket (you know the dressy kind that looks like a more formal jacket) and a sleeveless lace top in black too. In size L. Didn't dare to go down to M. Asked if they had it in any other colors and it came in cream too. Great, size 44 (euro) I said, forgetting that the black one was L. And here is what galls me - the SA said: XL then. Since when is 44 XL?? When I was the fattest I had XXL and that was absolutely not 46..... So I said I want an L and she said - that's 40 then.
Here you might ask when I didn't try them on in the store, but I have this thing about changing cubicles - gaaaahhhhhh, my self esteem kind of pols round me feet.
But isn't it strange how they make large sizes smaller? Nobody with L can fit into a size 40 (European size)??? Will try them on later and see how they fit.
