GainingADressSizeBetweenShops?!

I have only really taken notice lately, but i seem to be different sizes in different shops!
I would count myself as a small size 10 but i often end up have to buy a size 12 top in certain shops..the main offenders being River Island and sometimes Miss Selfridge. I'm not sayin it's always the case but i always have to make sure to try something on before purchasing as I have had to return a few pieces before, because of this problem. This especially happens with high-waisted skirts or going out tops.It's not that big of a dilemma but it does depress me a bit, feeling like i have gained a dress size. Does this happen to anyone else, or is it just me? And if so, what shops get the thumbs down from you?..

  1. I find Asda and ASOS's sizes are far too big for me. I usaually buy an 8-10 but have to go to a size 6 or in one case at Asda, a size 4!! Madness.

  2. I find it changes in pretty much every shop for me, sometimes even between ranges in Topshop!I think some of them do it to make their customers feel better and keep them coming back to be honest...
