Jean shopping is probably everyone’s least favorite kind of shopping. Jeans are a fashion staple and perfect for loads of occasions, but it’s not easy to find the right pair. If a pair fits your waist it mightn’t fit your hips, and if they fit your leg, they might not sit well on your butt.
These jeans were advertised as being 32 inches long. Unless this person has incredibly long legs, it looks like that can’t be the case.
Somebody Figure This Out
You would think that clothing sizes would be standardized in some way. You know — everything labeled a size eight would have to have the same dimensions. That way, when you’re trying to find clothing that fits, you would know where to begin.
In reality, clothing stores just make up what their sizes mean. A size eight in one store could be a size 14 in another. This picture shows several pairs of jeans that are all supposed to be the same size. Outrageous!
Is Anyone Else Cold?
Ripped jeans have been in fashion for decades now. While they were once associated with farmworkers, distressed denim is now a trendy look for just about anyone. The only problem is, when jeans are ripped, they keep on ripping.
Some ripped jeans are designed so they don’t pull anymore, but others are like a constantly unraveling ball of string. One minute we look great in our jeans, and the next we feel too exposed because our skin is showing!
Strapless Slip Ups
Ugh, how annoying is the way strapless tops slip down? Though tops, dresses and rompers without sleeves look great, they don’t always stay up. This tends to be based on the shape of people’s bodies, and the fabric used. Those with a larger chest can usually keep their tops up, while others are constantly tugging at theirs.
Apparently, the best way to deal with this common clothing issue is with a little bit of double-sided fashion tape. This way you can make sure your neckline isn’t going anywhere.
As much as we love fashion — and trust us, we do — we can’t deny that clothing comes with its own set of problems. There are all sorts of ways our clothing can make us feel uncomfortable, frustrated, or impatient. It’s too big, it’s too small, it’s too tight, it’s too loose! Plus, even tried and tested items that we love can end up turning their backs on us. Join us as we take a look at the clothing troubles that all of us can understand.
