So yesterday I went shopping. I needed wanted to buy myself some jeans. I went into Steve & Barry's and started looking for my size. But all I found was the size I used to be! A lot of jeans of that size! And I didn't find one single pair of jeans that was my present size. I was laughing and I was frustrated. What insanity! Back then when I actually needed jeans of my former size, I couldn't find ANY! Not one. And now that I don't need it, it's there. It's like if the world just turned on us. Or...the jeans Haha, so has this ever happened to you?

I understand what you felt! hehe. It is really annoying if you are looking for a size that can fit you and can't find it. I have problem looking of jeans too because I am petite and small waist line. I wanted to buy cheaper jeans but they don't have the size of jeans that can fit me. And if i found jeans that can fit to me, I still have to hem them because it is too long for me..grrr

of course it would happen that way right? i mean isnt that always the way? seriously, i hate buying jeans because my legs are so short but i have a thickish waste. i tend to buy my jeans at old navy because they are the only company that has jeans for my size/height without hemming them!

This always seems to be true for me too! Doesn't matter if I go up or down, they just don't have my size normally. It is funny. The only good thing is, with shoes I wear size 10 so I can often get nice clearance shoes.

That always happens to me too. Especially at Steve & Barrys too. I love S&B, but I can never find anything in my size there! Everything is either way too small, or too big. Nothing in my size. When this happens, I just figure that I wasn't meant to be spending money that day.

Haha, I agree with you on that last sentence. I always think,"Okay, for some reason, I couldn't find it. Maybe I'll find something better to waste my money on. Or maybe I shouldn't waste it today" Although it still frustrates me. Lol :P

have pften found myself having trouble finding my size especially in shirts. I will look sometimes and the neck will be wrong or the sleeve. I usualy have to have things ordered for me.

It always happens that way. Just like when you need a certain color top an it cannot be found. When you no longer need it it's the only color they have!LOL All of the Steve&Barry's stores around are area are closed now. They were bought out by another company. They had some really good buys when they were going out of business. I hated to see them go but maybe this new one will be as good!
