from: http://getfitandsweat.tumblr.com Sizes are just numbers assigned to garments to make shopping easier. Ever thought of it that way? They're numbers, put in order, that are designed to make our lives easier when we go shopping. They're not telling you you're EXTRA LARGE, or SMALL. They're like, "oh hey this top is smaller than that one, just FYI" So you can be like, "Why thank you size tag, you just saved me so much time!" Size tags should not hurt your feelings. You should be thankful that they exist! And besides, every size is dependent on the brand. There is no universal size. They're sized in comparison to other items of the same variety, for your convenience. Just don't be scared of a number on a tag, okay?
