i love the smaller clothes too, but I hate how stores sizes are so different. some I can be 14 others 18.
these days i'm trying to be more interested in how they fit n look on me rather than the number on the tag.
another thing i've learnt is that even though it might fit - it may not suit your body type! here I was thinking i could wear anything in a size 14 but no. if it doesn't suit my body type it still looks rubbish.
its all about the look of it now and not the number on the tag.
