Tips for finding clothes that fit

First of all when I go into a story, I see some clothing that I like. I"ll try it on and if I don't like the way it makes me looks or if it feels to tight, or to loose I just won't buy it. On the other hand my mom doesn't like trying on clothes. Now in some style depending on the make of the clothing a 18 could be too tight and a 16 to losses.

Also some style and colors might look good on some people and hideous on others. I think that when you buy clothes you should have a full length mirror. Suppose you are buying shorts and when you sit down you see that it looks to short.

Now another thing you have to consider are you buying work clothes, School clothes, dressy clothing for when you go out to dinner. Some time a pair of earing or nice nickels or piece of jewelry could make or break the outfit. Sometimes a pair of sandals, or low pump could make you look very smart,
depending on what kind of outfit your wearing and where you are wearing too.

Lets say you were going to work in office you might want dress in dress or nice pair of slacks, Where if you work at gas station maybe a pair of overalls might be good enough. Jobs that have uniforms great
some jobs have dress code, I think that every one should be allow to wear what they want as long if stays with in the jobs dress code.

So you ask what about nail polish, Will on some jobs you can be written up if color shows. I think some colors look ok, with different outfits depending where you are wearing to.

Now take a story like Wall Mart, I see top and pants that was nicely put together and I go and look at them. Other stories like Bells outlet will be so unorganized that its such a turn off.. When clothing is presently nicely people are more like to look. When its thrown together people are less like to even brother to look. There are some pants that can go with different tops or blouse, and some blouses and shirts that can go with different pants.

When its below freezing I personnel like a turtle nick sweater, but right now since I live in Florida I don't have any need for them, but one thing is for certain I would go and try it on before I buy it. Because sometimes the shirt that looks good on the hanger some times can look terrible on me. Some time the darker color will look better and some time the lighter color look better.

In the winter time when I lived in New Jersey I would put on a turtle neck sweater and it would feel nice. Thats how cold it would get. or if your shoveling snow. A turtle neck could be perfect.
