[quote=Anonymous]I'm 5'4" but have longish legs and am very short-waisted (short distance between my armpit and waist). I am slim but decidedly pear-shaped. So, e.g., I am a 6 or an 8 in bottoms but a 4 or a 6 in tops. I usually wear petite tops and almost always wear petite dresses, because in order to get a good fit in the hips, I have to, say, get the size 8, which will be big on the top, and even bigger in a regular (non-petite) size. I find that I wear pretty much the same size in regular or petite. Finding pants that look good is a big problem for me. I can't wear petite pants because the length is too short, but regular sizes are too long and sometimes too long in the rise as well. Then of course there is the pear-shape issue--my waist is much smaller than my hips, which creates a whole 'nother layer of pants nightmare. I almost always have to have pants altered, both length and waist.[/quote]
