Goodness woman, where haven't you lived!

Seriously. I've lived in every part of town except the West side (people joke that Northside -- despite the name -- technically qualifies as West side, since it's west of 75, but...no) and Northern Kentucky. I moved a LOT until I was 30.

Flea, the back yard area looks great for kids and entertaining. And all that wood flooring looks great, too.

I'm wearing a skirt at work for the first time in ages. It's a black pencil skirt, and it keeps creeping up my thighs as I sit and type, so I suspect it won't get into heavy rotation. Pity--it looks pretty good.

That's basically my theory with jeans. They are not too too short, but like a half-inch shorter than I'd like. But Tall pants are now too long for me, and I can't be bothered with hemming, basically. I'm right in the middle, leg-length-wise.

Me too. I keep thinking that if I get back in the habit of exercising I'll probably drop another size and the talls will be just right. That doesn't seem to be quite enough motivation though.

I am this way with jeans, except in petites. Petite length is just slightly too short, whereas regular almost always requires a ridiculous amount of hemming except when it doesn't, which makes NO SENSE since I am the average height of women in the U.S.

More proof that Women's clothing sizing is ridonk.

But also people's bodies are ridonk! I couldn't believe it when I figured out that my friend who is the exact same height as me was cuffing her regular length jeans when I was wearing Talls in the same style. Our bellybuttons are almost six inches apart, because I am a little short-waisted, and she is super long-waisted.

I can't really wear pants, and always had trouble. The only size where pants fit me was a size 16? Now that I am bigger, the front always comes up over my boobs, while the back fits. Which is weird because I have a belly. On size lower though and I can't close them. When I was thin, and lower rise pants were in, they always got sucked into my waist because my hips are disproportionately wide, and I had a perma wedgie. When high waisted pants were in fashion, I had a super big gap in the waist, for the same reason.

Dresses are just easier for me.

I sometimes end up buying petite sizes because if it's big enough to fit me in a regular size, it's too long. I laugh when that happens, because....I am not petite.

But also people's bodies are ridonk!

I know, but I mean that dudes get to buy pants based on their waist and leg length! Why can't women get waist/hip/length sizing?! Other than the fact that the entire clothing industry would have to change how they operate.

I would settle for skirt waistbands that fit like pants. I'm fine in either pants or dresses, but tailored skirts always cut into my belly, even when they fit.

Hubby and I wear the same length of jeans. He's nearly a foot taller than I. Then again, he also has extra vertebra.

Woman Within has betrayed me, I bought a skirt of the exact same size and length and style as another one that is the perfect length, but this one is 4 inches longer. I bought a pair of pants from them that were also petite, and they're nearly six inches longer than my legs. Petite is marketed for short people! I don't want to hem! Unfortunately, it's been months since I bought them, so complaining about it now is stupid. I've just been staring at them and glowering about I have nice dress wide-leg pants that I don't wear because I hate hemming.
