Setting Yourself Up For A PNB (Pants Nervous Breakdown)
I don't think I'm alone in feeling that, next to swimsuit shopping, there is nothing more likely to induce a nervous breakdown than looking for pants. It turns out there is actually a reason for this, and it's not (just) my freakishly short legs! Fashion blogger Marie Denee, editor in chief of <a href="http://thecurvyfashionista.mariedenee.com" target="_blank">TheCurvyFashionista.com</a>, says, "In production, pants are cut in batches of 100s, so the top one in the batch will fit slightly differently -- especially in the same size and especially in jeans -- so it's important to bring one size up and down into the dressing room when you are trying out bottoms."
