Once again, I am finding myself without reasonable pants.
See, I've gained a lot of weight. Which is fine, whatever, I'm not going to stress about it anymore than I have to. But now nothing fits. Not so long ago, I bought some new pants, in a size 16, at a store where sizes run large. And they fit. Until I wear them for two hours--then they're too big. However, my old pants, which are mostly size 16 from smaller sizing stores, are too tight. And it's not just the ass anymore--the waists are improbably tight now too. Which not only looks bad, but is also quite uncomfortable.
So I need new pants. Pants that fit both in the morning and in the evening. Inexpensive pants. Because it is too cold to wear skirts. And I don't know where to begin. I know of a few brands that fit sometimes, but only some styles fit, and only if they are long. Except the one kind, for which the long drags on the ground unless I wear heels. Why can't shit just fit?

My machine hems jeans quite easily, so if you are lucky enough to find a pair whose only crime is too long, I can assist.
Pants suck, though. Suck suck suck. And yet I'd almost always rather be wearing pants than skirts.

Women's clothing that fits? Gah, you'll be asking for pockets next...
