I was telling my sister just yesterday that the one unexpected downside of living in a warm climate is that I have no use for all of the cute coats/wraps/scarves/boots I see online. You win this round, East Coast weather.
Yeaaah, fashion sizing is a PITA. It varies from retailer to retailer and even from brand to brand. I wear a small in tops, but depending on where I go a small will either be tight enough for usage as a corset, comfortable in places but distorted in others, or just right. The biggest problem I run into is that designers seem to not expect people buying small to have big boobs. So many cute tops are beyond my reach because if I wore them I'd get slapped with public indecency. Sigh.
