Size 6 tops/vests

My wife has the same problem. It is worth looking at the kids ranges of clothes, as often the 15-16 yr old range is huge because some kids that age are near enough in adult clothes.0

I have a similar problem, im small framed at 5ft 1 but i have quite disproportionate breasts!
My bust size would give me a size 16 in tops, but my waist would give me a size 8/10!!!!
With breasts my size tops tend to be alot shorter on than on hangers!
George at asda did some lovely vest tops before winter0 -
Thanks everyone, will try the recommendations
Re Primark - I get summer dresses from there in a size 6 and they're great, loads of choice and they're starting to get them in now - bought four last week for £20 the lot. I don't agree with their principles and if I could I would shop elsewhere. If it wasn't for Primark I would be walking around naked on top. I bought loads of vests from there last year and they're on their way out, getting baggy etc. I looked last week and they only had a really small selection of the string strap ones, which for some bizarre reason don't fit me.
I've bought tops from the M&S teen range before, the only trouble with the kids ranges is finding clothes that don't have kiddy motifs on them0 -
OneYorkshireLass, I like some of the kids' clothes in Next. Not all of them are childish. I wear about an age 9.0

I am size 6 and find it a pain too, not many shops seem to cater for this and it is annoying. However... I found that ASOS seem to be quite good, as their size 6 is a true size 6 rather than the ones you get in the high street which like to make them slightly larger as everyone likes to fit into a smaller size than they are.
Also I only buy long length vest tops as I have the same issue, just because your a size 6 does not mean your shortComping wishlist for 2017

I've been meaning to look at kids clothes in Next, thanks for reminding me
Just looking at the website at the moment and there's some cute denim mini skirts which I bet I could fit into even though I'm an 8 on the bottom
Will check Asos out too, thanks.0
