Things that annoy you about your clothes

Why would anyone buy clothing that annoys them. Or keep clothing that annoys them.

I find it annoying that the yoga pants I wore when I was pregnant with my son still fit me! I think about that every time I wear them, I really should throw them out for that reason alone but they are so comfy.

Still wearing a nursing bra over here even though I haven’t pumped in like two years!

I think most of my clothing related frustrations are due to static cling in various forms (I’ll just be spending aaaaall day pulling down the front of that tunic top so that I can wear my comfy leggings to work… ooo, tummy control pants, except the fact that my shirt clings to them so much it’s like I’m wearing spandex kinda defeats the purpose…)

I’m bored to death with my winter stuff; I’ve been wearing it since late October. At this point every year I just want to take all my heavy knits, black leggings and boots out to the back yard and set them on fire.

I absolutely hate how they shrink while in the closet!

Because it's very difficult to find comfortable clothing for fat people these days. Plus I don't like wearing plastic clothes. Everything is an athletic fit and ends up skin tight around the lower half of the shirt for example. Tough to find pants these days too. Every pair of jeans I liked through the years moved out of US manufacturing and changed the fit. I don't need clothing for fashion while I am standing around drinking a Latte. I need clothing that I'm not showing too much from behind when bent over and twisted around trying to get the bolt loose in an industrial dryer, or a shirt that my stomach isn't hanging below because I have to reach up there.

Because it makes for a new thread about annoying threads.

Being large chested my biggest complaint is having to buy shirts that are a size or two larger than a smaller chested woman would need and then it being too loose/big at the bottom.

THIS!!!

And don't get me started on crop tops, which border on indecency if you're large chested and try to wear them!

Womens jeans having nonexistent pockets. It's gotten to a point where I might start buying mens jeans. I buy mens hoodies and sweatpants since they tend to be comfier and sometimes cheaper than womens fits.

I have short legs in relation to my torso. I can find athletic shorts with different inseam lengths, but it's hard for me to find casual shorts that don't feel like they're down to my knees.

I have a few pairs of mens jeans from Target. I had to try on a bunch of different sizes and styles to find what fit right but once I did, I love them. Not only do they have real pockets that hold things, they are also made of sturdier denim than most womens jeans I have. More cotton, less whatever else is in them.

I am annoyed that everything now is 90's style. Target is like walking on the set of Clueless. I did that crap once already and it wasn't great then. My 43 yr old self does not need to do it again. Especially the crop tops. Did designers forget there is a whole group of women that want to wear a whole shirt? And what is the point of cropped sweat shirts? It's either cold enough for a sweat shirt, or warm enough for a crop top.

They will have to pry my high rise skinny jeans out of my cold, dead hands. I am also annoyed that I have to do a squat test before wearing leggings out of the house. Why on earth do they make some of them so thin you can see thru them?

Also, why are so many shirts so short? I'm not even talking about crop tops, but regular shirts. With a large chest the front rides up a few more inches and it no longer reaches your pants.

Mens jeans being sturdier than womens is another reason why I'll start buying mens jeans in the future. Why are womens jeans so thin that they'll evaporate in the wash? Right now I wear jeans from American Eagle and I LOVE how comfy they are. Maybe I'll start trying the mens fit from there.

This is why I buy mens shirts most of the time. They actually go down to your pants vs. being too short. Womens cut shirts are terrible if you have a larger chest.

I don't think people purposely buy clothing that annoys them. Sometimes you can't tell about the fit until after you wear it for a while. Most people (at least based on the popularity of decluttering gurus) are hesitant to get rid of items that they spent money on so they keep them even though they are uncomfortable.

For Christmas I got some t-shirts. They were cut for women and not just a regular t-shirt. Even though they were plus-sized and reputedly my size, they fit me like a glove. Not all women have an hourglass figure. Some of us are built like Big Ben.

Shoes especially! I can try shoes on in a store and they are fine. But actually wearing them for several hours and they are horrible.

My two biggest complaints are that some clothing just doesn’t hold up well, and how sizes are very inconsistent, even among items that are the same brand, style, etc.

Clothing Tags

I hate them, all of them, and they must be removed.
