Too tired to shop for clothes

Post Reply New Topic

Hello all,

I'm in desperate need for new clothes, but I'm too fatigued to shop. Have any of you had this experience, and if so how did you resolve the issue?

I'm open to hearing your solutions, so please don't hesitate to write.

Thanks,

CFL

I have a few trusted online shops (be/nl located) where I sort of know sizes and style, don't like 'real' shopping much.
But for sizes, quite important you have +- proper measurements so better not if urgent. Depends how well you fit in standard sizes. (example... I know my shoulders are too wide so have to keep that in mind but won't matter for a pair of pants). (not in the habit of just ordering 50 different sizes and keep only what I really want)

Be careful using size tags of stuff you are wearing but does give a baseline. (certainly if you shop in same shop and same type of clothing (pants & jeans are often different sizes), it might help to have a note with them). Check stuff you like wearing.
Knowing some brands that usually suit you make it faster too. If you wear something you like, note brand, fabric, size... Not entirely to get the same thing again but you might find something similar (in my case fabric important).

Buy clothes online only when the seller includes sizing information in the pictures.
That is the most reliable way of insuring the sizes are accurate.

Use a cloth tape measure to measure yourself. Walmart's sewing section has them.
Usually there is one key measurement you need to know. For me was the distance across the chest.
I have no belly fat and a 24 inch waist so it is never too tight across my belly.
