People tell me they envy my being able to wear anything because I'm tall and thin, but it really doesn't work out that way. There aren't many stores that carry a 2 tall, so I have to choose between women's sizes for the length, which then is way too baggy, or misses 2 (or sometimes 4), which is usually too short. This is why I usually prefer skirts. A dress or skirt that's three or four inches too short isn't really noticable like pants , and jeans are just a nightmare.
I'd kill for a bust and hips to be able to wear a 6--all the prettiest clothes seem to be available in that size, and there seems to be the biggest selection.
On the other hand, the "young men's" (ie, pubescent boys) section sometimes works really well for me when shopping for pants and sporty looking shirts, though it does seem to be decidedly sparse when it comes to dresses, and I really prefer the cut of women's slacks, when I can find them to fit.
