5'4

118lbs

s or xs in sweats

and 24 in jeans from AE or like 25 anywhere else

im basivally a sixe 3

5'9, around 145lb

It really depends on the store, shirt-wise I can fit in anything from S-L, but I guess on average I'm M (at 165lb I was L). I'm guessing about an 8 in pants (my size 9's are too big now), don't know if that's M or L.

I'm 5'3-ish and I weigh 143 pounds.  I wear a size small in scrub pants and a size extra small in a scrub top.  Couldn't tell you about normal clothes 'cause I don't have any. :|

I'm 5"7 147lbs and I wear UK top small to medium bottoms 12-14 = US 8-10 (depends where I shop).

heh scrubs are not a good indicator :) I wore them when I worked in a vet clinic and even I could fit in XS and I've never worn anything XS in my life. I was swimming in L.

5' 2"

125 lbs

shirts, size small or xtra small (gap- they run huge)

pants, size 28 (Citizens of Humanity), size 6 (Express), size 4 (Old Navy/Gap)

Sweats/PJs- size small

I'm 5'3" and 139 lbs.  I'm kind of in between sizes right now.  In pants, I wear between a size 8-10 or M-L; and a S-M in shirts.  The larger size in my range tend to be baggy and the smaller size tends to be snug.  It also depends on the brand. 

Most of my jeans are from Old Navy and they are still fitting nicely at a size 10, but most of my other pants (work pants, etc.) and shorts are size 10 and they are really baggy.

 

Okay, so I tried on some pants and I wear a size 8 in jeans and a size small (4/5) in teeshirts I got from WalMart.

Still stickin' with scrub sizes for the most part, though.

5'6"

130lb

I'm verging on a size 4 in pants.  My size 6 converse one star jeans fit, but they are roomy, same with some other size 6 pants and shorts I've bought from Target.  I buy "small" tops (Massimo was the most recent manufacturer I bought a top in).  I'm pretty much exclusively a Target shopper right now.  Not spending big bucks on temporary clothing.  So, at Target I'm a Small and between a 4 and 6.

5'5

140

I wear a 9 pant(mostly from Khols but also some from walmart)  and a medium shirt(khols,walmart). But I don't plan on staying here for long so I haven't really shopped for new shorts or pants in a while. The capris I wear now are size 13. So they are a little baggy but they are flexible pants so come in a little but they still look bad. I need new clothes but my mom says I can't until next week. Yell I hate looking like a drowned rat in my own clothes. >> But what can I do.

5'4"

my weight is somewhere between 111-113 depending on the day.

For my tops, either a small or a medium. My jeans range anywhere from a 0-3. The size 0's are generally from American Eagle. A lot depends on how you like your stuff to fit. I don't like my clothes too snug, but some people aim for muffin tops..I swear.

 

5'8", high 180s (fluctuates). Size M or L in scrubs (L in older scrubs, M in newer ones - yep, even scrubs have vanity sizes - though also it's because older scrubs were not cut for women at all, so everything fits fine except the bazongas). Size 12 in Old Navy jeans and pants, size 14 in everything else (that I can tell so far, anyway). Size L, XL, or XXL in dresses and shirts (again, depending how the chest is cut). I just bought a beautiful blue Thai wrap dress, size L, that looks like it's custom-made for me. And because of the way you tie it on, it will still fit if I lose more weight (and/or be easy to alter).
I'm 5'4" and 130 lbs. I wear a size 6 from everywhere (Old Navy, Maurices, American Eagle) And either a S or M in shirts

*Sometimes Maurices jeans are a 5/7 though- their sizes are weird

I'm 5'8" 136 pounds.  I wear a size 29 jeans or size 7.  Shirts vary between small and medium (usually medium in juniors section). 

5'7.75" at 150-153lbs. 

I wear a medium top (pullovers), large/12 if button up (I have shoulders...).  Jeans, Levis - 6 in womens/miss, 7 juniors; Calvin Klein (and most other places) -- 28 ; dress pants -- 6 at Ann Taylor, Nordstroms, Macy's, Banana Republic.  Skirts -- 6 most places; dresses -- all depends on the shoulder/chest style -- 8-12 usually.

Ok.  So I'm 5'5" 210 bs.  I wear a 14-16 in the plus size shops like Lane Bryant, or Deb.  Unfortunately, although they fit me almost everywhere, I have small boobs so the chest area is so big it technically makes the shirts too big.  Generally I have to make alterations to get them to fit.  Otherwise, I wear from a 16-18 and on occasion a 20 in the rest of the stores that don't have a technical "plus" section.  I have found that I have to pick up about 10-20 items to try on just to walk out with 2-3.  I have never in my adult life been able to wear anything smaller than a size 14, so I'll do the happy dance when I squeeze into a size 12 for the first time!!! 

I'm 5'6", 170 pounds, and size Large in tops, 10/12/14 in pants which translates to 30/31/32. It really depends on how old they are (the older the larger the size), and the brand.

My favorite jeans are Lucky Brand, and I'm a 32/14 in those.

 5'6", mid 180s, and about the same sizes as trustwomen.  Except I don't own/wear scrubs!  I'm bigger on top, esp. in the stomach, so tops always need to be a little larger.

5'7'' 118 lbs

Size small tops, jeans are usually size 2 but if they go by waist size - 26 (citizens of humanity jeans) size 2 dress size

I'm 5'6", 130 lbs.

I'm an 8 in pants from The Limited, but 6 in Gap/Banana Republic/Ann Taylor.

I'm always a small on top, and 4-6 in dresses.  I have no boobs, so as long as the dress is A-line, I have to fir to my top.

In jeans, I currently wear Paige Premium Denim in 30.  The now fit straight out of the dryer, and get baggy be the end of the day.  I ordered a paid of Chip and Pepper jeans in 29.  I haven't gotten them yet, we'll see how that goes.
