Regardless to say even with these sales on i still have trouble having to look for new clothes in my sizes.All my life i have had my mum doing the alterations on my clothes for years.You would think that i would deal with it by now hey.Even to this day when i go shopping with friends i can never hardly shop with them they go off into the adult section while i first have to check out the juniors section.YES i am an adult i.r.l i am 18 yrs old and 4'9 tall or not so tall. My 2 friends are both taller than me Julie is 5'2 and Becca is 5'6.If i find something half decent in the juniors section i can pick up a pair of jeans aged 10/11 they are the exact length needed for me.If i want then slightly longer for heels i just buy the next age.I tend to find a few plain tops that come up just right in my body length has well.So i end up with 1 pair of jean and 1 pair of trousers with a couple of tops.Guess what i have to pay for them £38.00 nor bad hey. I then check out the adult clothes after looking for 20 mins for my friends they end up in the changing rooms.So i decide to look around here,i pick up a pair of trousers in the smallest size i find a size 8 with a short leg and put them up against me and look in the mirror. I look down at them to find em dragging on the floor.When my friends come back to me they check the length and measure it.Now if i bought them i would have to cut off 5/6 ins easily.I mean it's not nice being this short and having to look for clothes to fit me.I then remember to look for a pair of shoes for work.I have no chance in the adults has the smallest there is a size 4.My friends say to me for a laugh get your shoe size checked out.I say i already know it it is a size 1 if i am lucky.Lets me check it out first has i know my feet havent grown for ages.When i put my foot in the block to check my size i then say look a size 1,when they check it out they laugh and say just barely a 1. The size 1 gives me more room to move,Both my friends take a size 6 and 7.Now it doesnt take to long to pick out a pair has the size 1 is loads of pairs.Right that is me sorted for a little while. Now i cant see how shops cant make their clothes short for the shorter than average person. I mean there must be people under 5'0 and i bet shops would make a killing if they did our sizes. It isnt nice looking round the juniors section and coming face to face with 10 or 11 yr olds. I see some of the older kids just snigger and walk off .I find it annoying having to reach the counter to pay and the woman shouting out next please cause she cant see me in the queue. Some of the counter are pretty high and has long has i stand back slightly i can be seen and reach it. So no love lost there hey. That is quite interesting these shops especially with the sale on.
