    Clothes can sometimes be tricky as she generally tends to be between UK sizes 6 and 10
    She has found she must always try them on first and often complains that the sizes vary too much.
    Very often she does buy children's clothes and she's very happy with that. No VAT helps.

    Small size is best when it comes to the time of Sales though

    My missus is a size 3 as well and sadly I'm finding she doesn't have much of a problem either!

    Bit of confusion on my part. Evidently my wife is a size 3.5 UK size (not 3.5 Phils size). So thankfully she should be able to get shoes reasonably okay here. Sigh of relief.

    Relief !!
    If she follows the way of many I doubt you'll feel relief
    I think DaveUk would agree by the sounds of it

    Come to think of it there are lots of ladies here who do love their shoes (oh and handbags)

    Ha ha ha, happy days ahead lastlid

    I know what you mean. I just want to get her out of her flip flops and into some warm and waterproof boots. Slight exaggeration there but you know what I mean.

    So I really am not alone then in finding the small bedroom is slowly developing into a walk-in wardrobe! Makes me feel a little bit better!

    just the small bedroom!!!!, Ligaya has managed to infiltrate just about everywhere with her "Essentia and must have" stuff, but if any of it (recently discarded lingerie excluded of course) makes it into MY DEN, there may be a hastily arranged garage sale hehehehehehe
    Live your life for a reason and don't worry be happy

    if you don't know where you are going then any road will do!!
