Pants are tough because I’m just tall enough that a lot of average length pants and jeans are just a little too short, especially when I sit. But I’m not tall enough to wear tall length and if I get them, I have to cuff the legs. Also, pockets are an absolute requirement when I go buy pants or any kind of bottoms now.
And so many pants are high waisted because it’s in fashion now, but I can’t wear anything across my stomach like that. I have a scar that cramps when I wear high waisted anything. Trying to find leggings to work out in is a nightmare!
Bras are tough because, while I’m not really skinny, I’m thin enough that I have a smaller band size with a larger cup size. I think stores stock maybe 2-3 of my size and they are all gone quickly. I have to really dig to find anything that fits. Sister sizes do not work for me, but I did find a brand I actually like and I can order from them online. And no demi or bralette or anything for me, I need that full underwire support.
There are 2 items I always struggle with.
