I am the 7 1/2 floor...

I am totally in between sizes, or so it seems here in the UK. I try, and try some more to find something that fits me..mainly a good bra, shoes and "trousers" and 99% of the time it is a total disaster. I recently found myself thinking something along the lines of "I should just go to America and shop cos they make clothes to fit Americans....?" or something really dense. I bought a bra 2 weeks ago from M&S thinking I had finally found the right one, or at least one that might hold up for a little bit and in less than a week it had become something I hate, today I just gave in and put my old bra back on.

I also went to H&M today only to discover that everyone working there is a total Asshole, also that apparently plain black flared trousers and black fuzzy hats are not in season! What the hell am I going to do?

I literally do not fit into the sizes here, either way to big or WAY to tight not to mention beyond too long. I am not the worlds tallest person but I am no little person. The only jeans I got here that did not require hemming stretched so badly after being washed (and not dried) that they could not even be worn and had to be given to my husband- and that isnt the first time that has happen!

I would like SOMEONE to tell me how long they think a pair of trousers should last? How many years? How many patches? Im not exactly the worlds most crusty person but I do still repair/patch my clothing-one has to hold on to the good finds in today's current fashion crisis!

I have actually reached the point though now that I feel that I need to look a little bit more classy than I used too at work-which to be fair isnt even remotely difficult, but still fail to be able to find suitable clothing to do so in!

Overall I think the fashion is not so good in the UK, or perhaps its Edinburgh..I really dont know and I guess I really dont care..I just dont think I can bother/bore my husband with the exact same rant on all this..Thank god I didnt go in to shoes..
