Clothing

Ah, clothes, we all need clothes, right? I don’t know how many other ladies in my age group have trouble finding clothes they like and are comfortable to wear, but I find it pretty difficult most of the time. I especially have more problems in the winter months than in the warmer summer months. I am in the senior category, but do not want to dress like an old lady, even if I am one. On the other hand, I don’t want to dress like a 25-year-old either! I have some issues with clothes and how they fit. If it has a button waist, or buckles, or snaps, then it’s a “no”, I have a very sensitive waist and if it isn’t elastic, and a loose or easy give elastic at that, then forget it. This tends to rule out a lot of options and I have just started.
Then there are the styles, low rise, high waist, straight-legged, bootleg, tapered leg, ankle length, Capri length, full length. I just want a nice pair of slacks that have an elastic waist that doesn’t squeeze the stuffing out of you in an average length. Is that too much to ask for well apparently it is because I haven’t found a pair of those in a loooooong time.
My other problem is my body doesn’t match the sizing charts. My waist is non-existent, so if I get something to fit where my waist used to be, then it’s way too big everywhere else and if I get it to fit my hips then it doesn’t fit my used-to-be-waist. So, what is my solution to all of this, I live in leggings all winter, they are warm, they fit like a second skin, and all leggings have elastic waists since they are stretchy all over. I do have one problem with them however and that is they tend to slide down from my used-to-be-waist and I need to keep pulling them up, but hey, nothing’s perfect right?
