Unless you can morph your body whenever you feel like it, you're going to run across clothes that fit you perfectly in some places and leave other parts much to be desired. Don't you hate it when that happens?! You love those jeans but they are just too big in the waist and with a belt they tend to bunch up. I have one word for you...Tailor! Tailoring is so simple and easy and can fix clothes in a jiffy.
Now I know what you may be thinking, "where would I get the money to have several pieces altered to fit better?" That really can be a problem. Alterations can get a little pricy especially if you are having more than one thing altered. So, here's my solution, ask around! Most of the time, all it takes is a person with a sewing machine who has at least a little bit of knowledge on how to use it. Ask the sweet little old lady next door if she knows or even ask your mother or grandmother.
For some of the more extensive things, resizing dresses or structured pieces like blazers, you might want to invest in someone who knows more of what they're doing. But there again, do your research. You may be able to find someplace that is running a special or a discount on your first visit.
Once you have your clothes tailored you really will notice such a huge difference! It's worth the effort to make those clothes fit just right.
No pictures for this post, but don't worry! There will be in the next time!
