Does Size Matter?

We’ve all seen it at work, the mall or maybe in our own mirror. Women wearing clothing that don’t fit. I’m not talking about not fitting their body type and being unflattering, I mean wearing clothes that are obviously too small. When shopping, do you not try on the item in a size larger if the smaller size you tried doesn’t fit? Do you swear yourself to be a size 10 and not buy clothing unless it happens to fall in that size? Or do you buy the smaller size with the intentions of losing weight so it fits better? If so, then STOP! No one wants to see your extra skin peeking out! No one will even know you’re wearing a 12 instead of a 10. What they do notice is that it is too tight. Sizing is so inconsistent these days that you do have to try on a few sizes even within the same brand. It’s just a number that only you see. Wouldn’t you rather have someone think what great pants those are instead of, wow, how did she get those on?
