No Stereotypes Here

I'm not your average woman. I hate clothes shopping and try to get away with only doing it once every three years or so. This is not always a good thing. First, I'm short. Finding anything to fit the bottom half of me is a colossal pain in the arse. I have to take up almost everything I buy. I've had this problem since the dawn of time.

Second - women's clothing is a freaky thing. In one designer's label I'm up to 4 sizes smaller than another designers. And I have to wear different sizes on the top and bottom since the top is a bit, umm, large. By genetics - not surgery I assure you.

Not to mention the only place I can reasonably shop to find what I'm looking for (especially in formal wear), has the smallest selection. Whatever. I'm pretty sure I'm destined to HATE clothes shopping no matter what. It always makes me feel miserable about myself.
