[quote=Anonymous]OMG, if you are not a very thin person you can't possibly understand!  Grass is always greener.  Enough with the sour grapes!  For the record, the AVERAGE store (Anne Taylor, Banana Republic, etc.) does NOT cater to very thin women at all.  We are not talking about wearing couture on the catwalk...just trying to find some nice clothes to wear to the office that don't need to be taken in.

I am 5'4" and barely 100 pounds.  I've had a very difficult time finding work clothes.  If you are 100 pounds you do not fit into size 0 for work clothes.  It's very very difficult.  I've had to shop at places like Forever 21 to find pants.  I've spent tons altering clothes.  It sucks.  Sure, I'd rather have this problem than be on the other end of the spectum, but it's no picnic.

OP, I've had the best luck with Theory.  They have size 00, which is smaller than 0.  You can find it at Bloomies or saks and some boutiques.  They are on the pricy side but very good quality and stylish but simple clothes.  You're taller than me, but I think Theory is on the long side.  I think Banana also started carrying 00.  If you can pick through the cheap looking stuff and find the more mature pieces, I've found that places like Forever 21, Arden B, and bebe run smaller but you just have to do some digging to find work appropriate stuff.
