Do you have a hard time selecting your right size when you shop for clothes?

When you get home, does your clothes fit differently, than they do when you buy them out of the store?

I do have trouble sometimes since I can wear a medium in some brands and a large in others, I always have to try on everything I pick out to make sure it is fitting properly.

Yes sometimes this had happen to me you try them on in the shop then find when you get home they look completely different. Than i am not so sure that i like the clothes anymore.

oh yes, that happens all the time. I think the lighting in the store makes everything looks nicer too. then you come home and you realized, gee it makes me look short, stubby and many more. i had to return a few items because I realized it was not my style or did not fit me the same way.

Yeah since i have a medium built i pretty much make sure that if i decide to buy any readymade stuff then i do trial them in the store and then purchase them. But most of the time i buy dress material(i.e. unstitched clothes) and get them stitched as per fittings.

i am rather thin for my height .so i usually buy dress materials so that i can stitch them later.

I have this problem sometimes with jeans. I will try on a pair and decide that I like them so, if they have the same brand and cut in a different color, I'll sometimes pick up a second pair, too. More than once the pair I didn't try on fit differently. I've also recently had a problem with new jeans becoming looser as the day goes on. I know I'm not getting any thinner sitting at my desk so I can only assume that they're stretching.
