I'm having problems finding a simple, comfortable, washable dress. We are going on a cruise and will be gone for about a month and I need some dresses. Jeans are easy for me to find and get a good fit but dresses...I tried Dillard's, didn't like the prices, tried some on sale but they just didn't fit. I have found that sale items are often mis-sized. Bras are another major problem. I'm not large or of a strange size??????

Good lookin' pants bella, I'll have to try to find some. I'm a shortie too...its very tiresome to try to find any pants to fit. Actually, the longer shorts look like capri's on me!

For size 18:
I was in the Detroit area and went to Lord and Taylor's Women's Department and found a really good selection of clothing there (and stylish).
A few years ago I was in a pinch and needed to purhase black slacks in a town where WalMart was my only choice. I was surprise to find a really nice pair of slacks that was made just for me.

Lucky you I just hate shopping for pants I always feel cheated I have to cut at least 6 inches off Its such a waste of fabric and since surgery I can only wear the Hip-Huggers and I gave up finding the elusive comfy bra It's a myth I now wear a good quality mans under shirt that looks like a tank top they fit tight enough and they come in enough colors to go with all my shirts and the best part is for the price of 1 bra I can get 12 under shirts

I went the bra fitting route. The bra was very uncomfortable. The fitter said I'd get use to it as it was much better then the off the rack bras. ?? I didn't want to get use to it. That was ridiculous. I wear sleep bras during the day and when I need support for being in public I just wear two of the sleep bras. Works great for me and I don't have to use to anything. LOL. I'll keep looking for the perfect bra but I doubt I find it.
