There sizing is similar to Zara? I have to buy large in their jackets.
I would say so. My knit thing is a size M and pretty tight under the drapey bit. I am 5 7 and size 8/10 (sorry boys). Zara I would wear a M I reckon.
They do sales often, so worth keeping an eye on the website.0 -
I spend my whole working life speaking "corporate".
It's just shorthand.
There are actually real people behind all the cliches and jargon.
If you aren't going for a customer facing job PN it is absolutely acceptable to say you are useless at interviews and then dazzle them with your ability to actually do the job.
Any interviewer for a largish company just wants someone who can do the job and wont give them any griefRetail is the only therapy that works0 -
FC, will a large fit a 34 (cccccough)E?
And if so, black or grey?Retail is the only therapy that works0 -
Fc, you need to eat more!
I eat the same qty as OH but no junk (he likes a bit of sweet junk on the sly) and I rarely eat sugar (except that dark brown stuff in coffee) or much processed food (except the odd bag of crisps).
I have never had to 'watch' what I eat, I just stay the same size all the time (or lose a few lb if overworked/stressed)........I had a few issues when I was a teen and had my appestat tuned to perfection so I can't overeat (when full) but neither undereat (or I get all faint and tetchy).
However, I think it's more down to genes as all my family are very lean.0 -
Edit:
My reply was to WS and you posted in between :A0
