I go shopping with my mom and when we shop for clothes. I prefer buying the shirt and pants that's just right for my size unlike when I was a kid that they buy clothes for me that has allowances. But when I buy shoes and sandals, I buy those with an allowance.
How about you? Do you prefer buying clothes with an allowance or those that are just fit with your size?

whiling going for shoping of clothes i perferfitting& combination of colour
instead of allowances .becasefitting the of clothesonly matter not the allowances
onty the correct fitting addes the personality of person. it also high light the beauty of inner organs.BUT when i buy the shoes & sandal i perfer allowances.the
shoes are not less important than clothes.It makes personality of more attactive.

well, what you're pointing about the internal organs is after you've given birth right?"cause it's better to have clothes that really fit and are tight after giving birth so that your as s/belly won't bulge out making you look very big and fat. LOL
Thanks for sharing.

I like my clothes to be a good fit, not too tight but not looking like I am swimming in them.

Hello kharen!
I always buy clothes that are just right for my size. Not too big, not too small. I am on the plump side so big clothes would make me look bigger and small sizes would just emphasize those parts that I would rather hide. It's sad though that there are not much good designs for chubby girls like me especially here in the Philippines. That is why whenever I get to go abroad, I buy a lot of clothes because I get to find good sizes for me. Well, yeah, there are specialty stores here in the Philippines that sell clothes for women like me but their designs are not so good and the quality of the material is not so good too. Besides they sell clothes that are about two or more sizes bigger than what would comfortably fit me.

hi kharen,
i prefer bu clothes with allowances. i don't like wear clothes tightly. for shoes and sandals also, i would rather buy a number bigger than which fits me. moreover, buying clothes with allowances make me feel that i get more than what i pay

i always buy clothes that are just fit for me.. i dont gain much weight that quick anyway so it wont be a problem for me to adjust or deal with my fitted clothes. well i have clothes with allowances before such as my college uniforms and other types of uniforms and i always ask my mother to adjust it.

After giving birth to my last i never plan on buying new clothes because of weight gain
.Now that i have started losing some weight...
sometimes i get clothes somewhere fitting to a bit smaller than my size.It sort of motivating me to remove some more fats here and there so i can wear those clothes
.I am actually starting to wear few them.

I do the same too when it comes to clothes I buy those that fit me well. In footwear I leave allowances so that my feet would still be comfortable. Well I buy fitting clothes because it encourages me to stay in shape always.

Most of all I buy those that fits my size and my need :), and of course I will also have to buy something that fit my allowances... I dont wanna use a credit card just to buy cloth, bags and shoes... doesnt seems that important and urgent so you need to use it :)
