There isn't much difference between a size 6 and a size 10. But when you think about it, you'd think that the size 6 is obviously better, right? The size 10 seems like the woman would be huge.

I get caught up in it. I'm a size 10, and I would much rather be a size 8. When in reality there really isn't all that much of a difference. There are some styles that would fit me better as a size 12, but something in me just doesn't want to buy that size.

Then different stores/clothing lines have different sizing. A size 10 jeans at the Gap will fit differently than a size 10 jeans at American Eagle. It's fucked up.

Okay, so Misses is for girls, usually pre-teens, teens.... Petites are for women who are of smaller stature. 5'4 or shorter I think, and generally thin. Women are for the rest of us...

I hate clothing sizes.
