If I'm going to have to hassle with the post office anyway, I may as well end up with one item working rather than waiting all that time just to send it all back because I only ordered the size I thought I should be and ended up wrong :(<br /> I have 2 sweaters coming (one small and one xs) from Loft on Friday and I'll let you know, but the first time I tried them last month, both tops seemed too large to me (I ordered smalls). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-a-little-sizing-help-from-some-stores-that-are-new-to-me#post-279162 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 18:02:04 +0000 Heather 279162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/help/womens-fit-and-size-charts.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/.....harts.html</a></p> <p>When you click on an item at Boden, there is a tab at the top "measurements." It will give the specifics on that particular piece. </p> <p>Also, reading reviews can help tremendously.</p> <p>Happy Shopping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-a-little-sizing-help-from-some-stores-that-are-new-to-me#post-279153 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 17:48:08 +0000 Kate 279153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As you can see from this thread (<a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-loft-sizing-has-changed" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....as-changed</a>), Loft recently changed some of their sizing. Is there any way you can go into the store and try things on? Otherwise you might need to order a bunch of different sizes and return what doesn't fit. I've ordered tops in S, SP, XS, and XSP from Loft to keep my bases covered because it really can change from garment to garment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-a-little-sizing-help-from-some-stores-that-are-new-to-me#post-279150 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 17:46:09 +0000 Steph 279150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that AT runs a little bit big. I used to think ATL ran big, but yesterday there was a thread about ATL changing their sizing and now they run small. I haven't tried them in the past few weeks to know. </p> <p>There are several threads about Boden sizing on the site, and I'm sure others can help with that one. I know it's a big question because they use non-American sizing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-a-little-sizing-help-from-some-stores-that-are-new-to-me#post-279149 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 17:45:56 +0000 catgirl 279149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think Boden runs a bit small in tops (but I am busty), and TTS in bottoms. Certainly not large, although reading the reviews is very helpful and people post a lot of reviews on their site. Others here can tell you about ATL and AT! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-a-little-sizing-help-from-some-stores-that-are-new-to-me#post-279145 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 17:43:23 +0000 Cilleena 279145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How does AT and ATL run? bigger or smaller? I am between a 10 and a 12, which means I'm kind of between a M and a L. I am leaning towards the 10, and the M, unless someone tells me that their stuff runs small.</p> <p>Same question for Boden? </p>
