- Is a size 12 at 12 stores the same? Sizes in different brands can be so different, so this size 12 girl tries on 12 pairs of jeans to see what are the best jeans for curvy girls. Going shopping and trying a size 12 at 12 different stores on my curvy, mid size body was interesting! What did you think of this inside the dressing room try on?
❤ OPEN ME!
Hey curvy babes! Welcome back to another inside the dressing room try on, but this ones a little different! Trying on different sizes at different stores can be frustrating, and my curvy body can be hard do dress and hard to figure out what size I actually am. So I went to 12 popular stores and tried on a size 12 pair of jeans to compare sizing. I have an in between size body where I'm not quite plus size, but a lot of standard size clothes don't fit my body right.

I think everyone has had a break down in hollister about their sizing hahaha
100% right lol
Yep
Raise your hand if you’ve ever felt personally victimized by hollister
Lol yes
Alexa Schofield 🙋🏼♀️
Sending this to my husband who doesnt understand why It takes so long to shop for clothes.
How true!
Have you fb or email
@@karimkrimo1808 uhmm no.
Ashley AZ Mom boi, it doesn’t take 3-5 hours to shop for clothes, just grab the size you need, try it on, if it doesn’t fit, get another size.
@@streetsignboyo3045 right, who said 3-5 hrs?
I went into a store and tried a size 14, way to large. Try another item in 12 its a little tight but ended up finding a size 10 item that fit xD excuse me what
crazy isn't it??😂
I always have to go up in size, cause my butt and legs are a lot bigger than my waist
I'm watching this realizing that we use the same size and I think I look fat but when I see you I just feel like you look beautiful. Thank you for doing these videos you are making be feel more comfortable with my body
Same here
Dont forgett that overwight can make your life up to 20-50 year shorter. Take care of yourself, looks are not everything. But im sure you both look stuning.
@@user-zp8we4zk2i Dude just shut up. That was just so unnecessary of you to say. They're a size 12. Calm down lol. She looks perfect and healthy...
@@bergen-alexisschmidt9189 she is overwheight and can lose her life way to earli. People seams to think that only looks matter. But it should not. Do you know that more peole die becuse of their weight then becuse of lack of food? When you look at your family at your deathbed, will you really care that you have walked around looking stuning if you cant rock it more then 40-50 years.
@@cakey_cakes good argument:)
I'm sitting here like dang girl u look so good and I'm realizing that we actually have the exact same body like it's kinda weirding me out. But now I'm sitting here like wtf if I think she's gorgeous then why do I hate my bod? Opened my eyes for sure
This is so sweet.
@@Twinkie989 it's crazy how body dysmorphia works! Sierra seriously changes my perspective and makes me feel so much better about myself. ❤️❤️
+Court Schaffner These videos help me, too. I see her as average- and I also see myself as average (even though I know I’m technically underweight)- and it helps me to realize average can look pretty good. These sorts of videos take away some of my panic. I hope that doesn’t sound offensive- I am very grateful for these sorts of videos because they are good for my mental health.
@@Twinkie989 yea I relate! Little while ago I was underweight too in the thick of my eating disorder & I'd feel like that as well. The point is that no matter your size Sierra is helping everyone feel more confident even if they aren't exactly a size 12, bigger or smaller, it helps us all
+Court Schaffner Love her attitude.
That's the most annoying thing to me about shopping!! I'm literally a different size in every store and that's especially frustrating when you wait for a dressing room forever, go inside with YOUR USUAL size and then it doesn't fit...I'm done at this point!
I'm usually the same size in every store for everything apart from Primark jeans, Primark trousers fit me in size 14 (or medium (12-14) depending on what the item is sized as) but for some reason the jeans don't
I've literally never shopped at a clothing store...only Walmart and stuff..actually...I do have a few things from CHEAP clothing stores. The weird thing is, I remember fitting into size 16 women's pants several years ago so I fit into much larger now...I'm not even *that* big...less than 200 I think at about 5'2".
The worst is when you try to discount shop at a thrift store like Plato’s closet and the jeans are separated by sizes but cause they’re all different brands they all fit different so my usual size 7 can be anywhere from 5-11 and when I find a super cute pair of jeans that done fit I can’t even try on another size because there’s only one of each pair 🙄🙄
Alisha Stevens Yeah Primark jeans are SMALL. I tend to size up even as much as 2 sizes! I wouldn’t worry- it’s not just you XD
i always go to the dressing room with 2 different sizes of everything, i hate to wait in the line so i just go 1 time with a lot of stuff
And now she’s a hollister ambassador! Here’s to companies realizing that real bodies are so impactful in the media and shout-out to Sierra for all of her hard work and success!!!!
express: 00
old navy: 00
ae: 00
h&m: 4
women’s sizes are a joke
Completely agree. 💔
😱 In my country at hem I size down. Other brands have way smaller sizes. I have a 38eu size and at hem a 36. I never knew it was an issue in other countries!
H&M has clothes made in China, so their sizing is chinese, therefore much smaller compared to European or American sizing, because that's the norm there.
Me:Hollister -00
Ae:00
Old Navy:1
I am longingly remembering the days of being a double zero :)
This is the first of your videos I’ve ever watched, and I never comment on videos, but with two teenage daughters I have to stop and comment on this video. I applaud your positive, no apology attitude about your body. You are beautiful! Your openness about fit issues and how much the fit of a pair of pants can affect us emotionally is HUGE. Thank you for putting this out there and letting us all know that we are not alone in our frustrations in the dressing room. Just because our body does not fit into a pair of jeans does not mean our bodies are broken or ugly. Celebrate the curves, straight lines, long legs, short legs, big hips, no hips, and anything else we all have. There is so much talk about spreading kindness in the world and we need to remember to be kind to the person in the mirror too.
Heather Palmer you’re a great mother. My mom has always told me “otherwise “ let’s just say , but I really like your last sentence. Thank you.
Couldn't have said it better!! Great video.
This!!!!!
Preach!
Well said!!
Why did you choose 11 instead of 13 in Hollister? 🤔 You know that odd is Jr sizing, aka smaller so it would make more sense to size up! Lol made me crazy for some reason.
that's what I thought!
Odd is Jr sizing?? I didn't know 😯
@@LoveShelbylee yeah, even numbers are adult sizing too.
She should've tried a size 15 she would've loved them
She chose the right size. 11 is a 12, 13 is a 14. The point of the video was comparing the size 12s, not her just trying to find jeans that fit.
when you say next and click to the right but it goes to the left
Thought I was the only one who was bothered by this
I've noticed this for months!!
Bugs me like no other but I still love the video
I know, it was driving me nuts. Still like the video though.
Absolutely doing my head in
Girl, I admire you! I would get like 7 breakdowns trying on those jeans. Jeans are hands down the hardest thing to try on for me!
I always try on a larger size first that way if they fit, great! If not I can size down and not feel bad 😂
This video is so meaningful to so many young girls + adult women. When I was younger I would cry in every fitting room. I hated shopping !! This video brought back so many memories. Im so happy I over came the way I view my body. Thanks for sharing.
Jazmine Aquino relate ;-; but still struggling with not crying in the room
I still cry （ｖ＾＿＾）ｖ
This video definitely reminded me why I shop on Aliexpress. They give you a sizing chart, so you have a good idea if things will fit when you buy.
Tvshowsareafantasy Andsoaremovies don’t you are so beautiful a size doesn’t define you ♥️
duaimei let’s not even talk about Aritzia
Oh my God! Did she just say she is 22? I'm 21 and I'm not even near this level of having my shit together!
Luiza Lacerda me too me too 😒
Luiza Lacerda girl I’m 26 and I don’t nearly have my shit together either 💕 in our 20s we’re all just figuring it out as we go!
Same. I'm 25 and I've never been more out of it lol
Luiza Lacerda Ik She’s so mature and together
She’s a size 12
a size 12 in junior sizing (like odds) is close to a size 15 not 11
mia verboom yeah, a 34 is tight on me for some places but big enough in others. That’s if they even have a good length
i think you mean 13
I wear a 12 in women’s, 13 in juniors
I bought a dress from hollister and my head would fit through the neck hole. Talk about a complex.
I’m 23 and also a size 12 and I avoid wearing jeans at all costs just because I always get so triggered when something doesn’t fit so this is just so nice to see
girl saaaame! I'm also 23 and a size 12 and i own more leggings these days..
If I can hike pants up to my belly button then chances are I’ll be wearing them
I have 1 pair of jeans
And they are jeggingz
ME.
Same lol have like two pairs of jeans and never wear them lol
TH-cam has been recommending me your videos and I have watched 2 of them previously. You are one of the few youtubers who does review in a respectful manner. You've got yourself a new subscriber! And AND, finally a youtuber who's a size 12. Bless. I especially love your body positivity and your character as well, keep it up Sierra!
I’ve been binge watching your channel the last few weeks and girl I love you and your channel. You are so real and relatable. I gained weight after having a baby and was so sad because my jean size increased, but watching your videos have helped me to remind myself that it’s just a number. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your life!
I'm re-watching all of Sierras videos to make my heart happy, and she mentioned just passing four hundred thousand subscribers and now shes on her way to TWO MILLION and I'm thriving
I cried wen she told her Hollister story breakdwn..this happens w/my daughter alot! I really appreciate this video! I showed it 2 my daughter who's 9yrs old!
JK Mid it’s sad that that’s happening to younger and younger people it’s like these brands are trying to make people feel bigger than they are the sizing of jeans has been seriously getting worse ( pants size means almost nothing nowadays) no consistency
JK Mid no consistency and the pants could be constructed for certain people , check the brand and their target audience because if a jean company’s target audience is athletic built people then it will mostly be a straight fit for a person with a butt or a small waist compared to their thighs
JK Mid a story most, if not all, girls with a little cushion can relate to 😞😞
I couldn’t find jeans for my 9 year old anywhere until justice plus size jean leggings came down from the heavens and blessed us. Check them out if you’re having a hard time finding jeans that fit your kid right.
@@AD0RER0XX I didnt know that! Thanks, she loves that store but nothing fit anymore!
I hate sizing that’s why I am always scared to buy online! You look stunning! 😍 love the hair!
Rewatching this vid because it always makes me smile. I starting watching when I was also a size 12 and you really gave me the confidence to not be ashamed of my body and to dress it in the size it is and not the size I want. Coming back to rewatch because I’ve been on a weight loss journey for the past two years and still having the same sizing issues. I fit into a 6 in most stores no problem, and am approaching a comfortable fit in a 4, but then I’m not even close in a size 4 gap jeans but I can fit into a size 2 lucky brand? Who knows?? I appreciate everything you do, Sierra. You’re always so sweet, gorgeous, and relatable!
I’ve been binge watching your vlogmas from last year and had NO idea how the reaction to this video made you feel..... I friggen LOVE you. Some people are asshats. You are SO creative & body positive for all! You’ve helped me gain SO much confidence- even enough to make my own channel.
You rock Sierra. Seriously. You do ❤️🥰
I love how you are MY size and not a size 4 doing fashion. Thank you for representing the curvy girls out there.
I get the bulging through the holes in jeans too and i’m a size 4!! I always size up in specifically ripped jeans and then wear a belt lol Ladies (and men): don’t feel bad for having body fat and skin! All of this is super normal for any size. Great video!!
I’m so glad that there’s someone like you on this whole TH-cam community, I’m a size 12 myself so it’s actually really helpful seeing some of your videos and it makes me feel so much more comfortable in my own body
Reading the comments on this I can understand why you would have been hurt. I think many people got on the hate train and started making comments on your body for a few reasons- they really missed the point of the video that you were pointing out. That sizes are never the same proportions at different shops a12 can be a 10 or a 14 like you said in your wrap up. The other is because some people see a positive channel like yours and think it's a perfect place to pull others down and be hurtful and mean which could be a definition of a troll.
You have lots of viewers who get your ethos. You have felt good about how you look , which is stunning. You want others to start to love how they are.
I am so happy I came across your channel. So many beauty guru have this image of been tiny and following every trend is the only way of been beautiful. You are a breath of fresh air. Feel good as you are. Find what works best for you and thrive. You are truly inspirational Sierra.so is your friend Skylar... sending you so much love and prayers.xxx
Bulging out of the distress holes is the story of my liffferee omg girl
same! So annoying
Christina Radford omg yeesss
Same but I still wear them tho..
Yes girl!
Relate!! Spesh when sitting down!😂😂😂
the good American jeans flattered you SO WELL. so sad they’re so expensive 😭😭😭😭
They always have good deals online. Look out around Christmas!
They usually have clearance sales during January, March, July and October. Trust me those $20 AE jeans and $8 AE shirts are well worth the trip. 😆
this made me cry so much because the story of having a breakdown in a dressing room was way too relatable!
I just found your channel a week ago, and I’m obsessed. You have such a beautiful spirit. I’m watching your video where you broke down about the hate comments, and it made me tear up. I’m praying that you don’t ever feel unworthy or down like that again. You’re helping me love my post-baby body. You are truly a gift to so many people!
girl let's just give it to you for being a champ and going to 12 different store to try on jeans I would have given up between 5-7. Honestly going to one store is hard enough for me.
thestaceofspade i hate shopping for pants, it's so exhausting
Your story about your breakdown in the Hollister dressing room is so relatable. Thank you for spreading body positivity ❤️ much needed!
Sierra...Thank u for sharing that story about Hollister with us. You have definitely gained so much self love for yourself which in turn inspires us. Your experience is very similar to what we all went through and I am so glad we have more inclusive sizes now and stores for all sizes. Love your work, babe
You have honestly made me so much more confident and comfortable in my body!!! Thank you so much!
To all of the haters, you all should know that Sierra is seriously the most genuine, kind hearted, humble person on the internet, who just so happens to make around 500,000 peoples days better every single day. So please take your hate and unnecessary comments elsewhere. Only positivity on this channel ❤️
👏👏👏
This! 👏👏👏
👌🏻
Shauna Rohr love this 💕 get em Hun!
Shauna Rohr I get being humble but telling people “it’s the clothes not your weight”
Is total bullshit. Obesity is real. It’s a big problem. Americans have never been fatter then they are now. So telling people “ hey diabetes and heart problems are ok” is NOT a good message
in your vlog the other day you mentioned you were shocked by the amount of hate you got in the comments of this video.
i just wanted to take a minute and let you know you are BEAUTIFUL, PERFECT, and DIVINELY MADE. inside and out. don’t let anyone dim your sparkle!
Tiff Prendergast ❤️ kindness and love are always free
well said!:)
Girl I love your message in these videos. Because even in kids clothes it’s so crazy! Nothing is uniform! Sizing for girls in general is nuts! Keep it up- I love it 💯👏👏👏👍🏼
In 54 and LOVE ❤️ ALL YOUR VIDEOS! you have actually helped me be more forgiving of my body as I wear a 12 also thanks
Why the heck is everyone suggesting sizing up ? Did u even read the title . It's trying on size 12(!!!) in different stores not looking for a fitting jeans in every store. Stop those hateful comments, Sierra is gorgeous and she can call her body shape whatever she wants. Love her ❤
👏👏👏
Exactly it was to show inconsistencies
Well she didn't size right for Hollister at all. "Teen" jeans run smaller, so sizing down to an 11 was a mistake and isn't even equivalent to a 12. If you wear a 12 in women's, you would need a 13 or 15 at Hollister. I just don't know if they go up that high. Also Hollister jeans suck if you have any kind of curves. I loved their jeans when I was a skinny, shapeless teenager. As soon as I started getting older, getting curves, I can only fit women's jeans. I'm only a size 4-6, but I need something with smaller waist, bigger butt and thighs, small calves. Hollister just isn't made for that body type lol.
I like how she said American Eagle is her favorite. For all the same reasons American Eagle is my favorite too 😂
@Nina S. So all she showed was that sizes run differently??? LOOL why complain... all sizes run differently even for skinny people.. just find things that fit you. This video was aruoud
In American sizes I'd be a 4, but I am curvy and I am so glad you cleared up that one can be curvy no matter what size! I haven't seen these "curvy" jeans anywhere here in Europe yet, but I hope they're coming soon.
exactly!! im a UK 8 (i think US 6?) but have wide hips. ive never seen curve fit clothes in my size here. whenever i try to find curvy jeans all i find is plus size
last year I bought some jeans from zara which were called "love your curves" but I don't know if they still sell them! :) they only were like 25 bucks too
Have a look at fashion nova they ship to the UK and fit like a glove..
In Greece we have a lot in almost all stores thought ....
Girl, so many brands that are sold in Europe have "curve" fit!!!
I recently started watching your videos and I can’t get enough of them! They are so good and you seem like an amazing, kind person that would be really fun to be around. I also love you confidence and make others feel more confident
The H&M jeans didn't fit because she chose European size 31 which is between a UK size 12 and 14. A US 12 is a UK 16 so she would've needed a European size 36.
Not 36, I think 40.
I noticed that while shopping at H&M and it confused me
actually european 44-46
@@elenavalkeriye Yeah. 36 is S. 32/34 are the smallest they sell at HM here in Norway (not including the "curvy" clothing line) and 42-44 the biggest. I have pants from HM that are size S and then size L, so I think they're confused... or maybe I'm confused. I actually think they have a 'teen' clothing line (without calling it that) with smaller sized clothing, and then the 'regular' size for adult is one size larger, or something. When I was in Germany, the clothes that said S were actually M, and in France a M is an S. It's confusing as hell.
@@theresevontodderud3901 sizing is weird af everyhwere. here the biggest in hm would be 46 i think. Maybe 44, i am not sure
Im trying to figure out why people are saying that she's delusional about her size but she shows you what size she picks ( a size 12) and shows you that size on. So clearly she has to be around that size if she's putting them on.
Some stores (especially GAP and Old Navy) run bigger than they are. So she MAY be bigger than she says because those stores are EGO boosters.
Jean Valerie Go-Oco I can’t even shop at those stores because there 0s aren’t even true 0s.
@@hellokittie9664 exactly. They run so big. I dont feel good wearing a 0 there when I'm truly a 4
Thank you, Asia. I don't know how people can be so nasty with their comments...
You can't just look at someone in a video and think you know their size, and to comment saying she doesn't look such and such number is actually the whole subconscious lesson of the vid..it's not about the size! Bodies are a funny thing. Me, for example, I just purchased a size 23 (000) jeans. They are designer, not vanity sizing. Yet, if you look at me, some may consider me a little chubby (still can't bear my mid-drift). I am not some tiny little Asian that fits into tiny clothing like nothing, I'm a 5'5" white girl with hips. Yeah, I'm a good 2 sizes bigger at teenager stores (that don't account for womanly hips in their clothing)...that just goes to show, what the heck is in a number?! Quit judging. Do what makes you feel healthy!!!
Sizes are different as a Usa12 is a 16uk
When clothes don’t fit: Thank u, next :)
lmao
Aaliyah Antone oi oi directioner
Saw what u did there
your profile pic omg
I just found this comment and it’s hard to believe Thank U, Next came out in 2019 😨 Time flies!!
you have the kind of good energy and vibes I need in my life!!! Ly girl!!
This video actually helped me feel better about my own body image because I had never considered the idea that a pair of jeans might just not be good for my body proportions. Really opened my eyes.
I'm a 12 year old and i have a curvy stucture, i would usually get bullied for my body. But watching your videos make me smile, especially when I am starting to like going shopping. Thanks and keep doing great! 💖
SisterBreez same I’m 12 and I’m curvy.
girl be lucky! dont listen to those people
no offense to you at all, but why are they worrying about body type??? they're way too young to be worrying about that
@@dollbunni i agree but now in school it really feels like curvy girls are just fat.
girl you are beautiful just the way you are ! don’t you listen to those kids who are jealous because they can’t look and have the curves you do ! YOU DO YOU BOO ♥️
I also had the jean break down too
The Teletubbies everyone has
The good American LOOKED SOOO GOOD on you !!!!
Legitimately almost cried when you talked about having the breakdown in the dressing room... I’ve been EXTREMELY self conscious for a very long time (I’m 20 and was bullied a lot throughout elementary and high school) so it was nice to relate to someone 😂❤️❤️❤️ love you and your channel so much :)
I recently bought a couple pairs of Good American Jeans from hautelook! Definitely be on the lookout because I got them at about half off!
Leah Janae Nordstrom Rack puts them on clearance all the time too! You can get them for good deals there.
Kari G you are lining the pockets of any company you buy jeans from. Doesn’t really matter if it’s the Kardashian’s or Levi’s .... someone is getting richer!
@@Thorsdaughter007 believe it or not you usually get what you pay for with jeans. Especially if you get a classic wash that you can wear for a long time without it looking tacky and outdated in a year or two.
For the trendy washes and styles id go for cheap options because who knows if pink jeans or ripped and distressed jeans will be popular next year where as a classic blue, black or even white washes will always be safe.
@@Lemonade_Stand_ I used to buy cheap $20 jeans and just started getting 7 For All Mankind & Paige jeans 2 years ago, I will never go back. I'd rather invest in one nice pair and have them last years. There's certain things I cheap out on & jeans aren't one of them.
Sierra,
I’m normally a small or size 5 in juniors. My wedding dress was a size 12! But as you said, I just had to remind myself that the size is just a number!
@Mandi W Are you being sarcastic? A size 12 isn't *that* big lmao. 😂
Mandi W I totally see your point but I don’t think she was trying to be negative! I think the point was just that being really used to seeing the same size on you and then suddenly being told you’re 7 sizes larger is a little jarring. Nothing is wrong with being a 12 (or a 2, 8, 16, 24, etc) but we as people get used to the way we look and what we wear I suppose.
Thank you so much for this video, so many people have no idea how frustrating it is to buy jeans when every store is different with the same "numbered" size. What esp frustrating is if you have a curvy shape or short waist the cheaper brands don't work and have only found great fit in those more luxe brands. Great video! :)
I'm so glad that stores are starting to carry "curvy" pants. I think a lot of people have this perception that curvy means big, but it doesn't. I am a size 2-4 but I have very wide hips so I often have to get a 6-8 and then end up with a huge gap at the waist...it's one of of the reasons I stopped wearing jeans and just wore leggings all the time
I love your outlook on body shape and size. I had a baby earlier this year and I have been struggling with my body changes and weight gain. Thank you for the body positivity reminder ❤️
I'm a size 12 and I only wear American Eagle. Literally the best jeans I have
Robyn Stephens yeah same!
I totally suggest trying out the Dream Jean's we have now! They're literally the best pair of Jean's I've ever owned and honestly the only ones I ever wear now despite the couple other pairs I own 😂😂
I own about 14 pair of AE jeans, I love them that much! 😁😁
Saaameee
Can I just say that you’re absolutely gorgeous Robyn!!! ❤️
Omg I can relate to this!!!! Such a struggle when your size is different in different stores.
AE jeans are the best, especially now that they have extra short online :)
Sarah Gaeta I think their online store’s sizing is off. I have a size 8 from them that is to tight and I am a 2 or 4 in their store jeans. That’s not the first time either
so true on the sizes! High rise are so much better! l just subbed and loved it!
Yes, high rise is the only way! So funny that you said this because I was just having a conversation with some friends about the fact that we can't believe that low rise jeans were a thing. Never again lmao
@@ParkeAvenue lol so true. I used to hate highrise pants but im finding myself preferring the highrise more and more. I wont go near a low rise pant with a 6 foot pole, mid rise and high rise only!

I'm just gonna stick to my crappy $16 Walmart jeans
$12 Walmart jeggings are the best
I literally get $5 jeans from the thrift store lol
Or JCP jeans buy one $20 get one for a penny. lol shopping for jeans is my kryptonite! Partly because any good stores are over 2 hrs away. It's a whole day trip and I'm lucky if I come home with two pairs. 😭 👖
I love boot cut target jeans
Omg yessss I flipping love Walmart close and I fell like that they don’t get to much street cred but like fo real Walmart close are fire
This and your PCOS video are my fav of all time. THANK YOU for being so real. ❤
I love how confident and comfortable you are in your body, its such a good feeling to know that you can love your body no matter what size you are ❤️
Abercrombie, Hollister and AE are all owned by the same company so it's crazy how much the sizes differ.
Aimee Gardiner they may be owned by the same company but their production is handled separately and they likely employ different fit models.
Hollister is owned by Abercrombie, but AE is not affiliated with Abercrombie or hollister. Hollister is one of Abercrombie’s sister brands similar to how Aerie is a sister brand of AE. AE is a completely separate company therefore there is no connection to Abercrombie/Hollister other than they share a similar customer base. I’m not sure about how the design process works for either company but I do find the issue of sizing interesting.
Hollister is owned by Abercrombie but Hollister is basically teen sizes; their clothes are smaller. I’m normally an XS in almost every brand but in Hollister I’m an S. AE has nothing to do with the other two but the sizing is kinda like Abercrombie.
AE and Abercrombie are sister brands. I’m pretty sure they all have different design teams tho
Tbh it doesn’t help that she tried on the wrong size in Hollister. She tried on a 31waist elsewhere but a size 11 in Hollister is a 31” waist.
I have lost over 70 pounds this year and am now in a size 12. I’ve been only wearing Maurices but this was a neat video that has given me more ideas! I would have never considered Abercrombie or AE because I’ve always been too big for their store. Maybe I need to go back.
Hollidy Magadan i will always recommend American eagle to everyone definitely try them out!!!
I work at AE and it's not even the employee in me that makes me recommend it to everyone 😂😂😂 like literally, the first time I got to buy a pair of Jean's and wore them I swear to god it was like a revelation lmao right now I LOVE the "dream jean" they're literally the best thing I've ever bought, but they're pretty pricey. But I'd say, considering how stretchy and move/breathable they are it's definitely worth dishing the money on
Hollidy Magadan is there something specific you have eaten to lose weight. My lower belly is so big and saggy I cannot button up the jeans it feels so tight when I bend down to tie up my laces
@@kainatmikael9761 I've lost 17 pounds this year and I just did it by making sure I ate 1800 calories or less, everyday. I downloaded a food diary app and used it to keep track of how many calories were in each item of food. If you eat about 2000 in a day, you'll maintain your weight. By dropping down to 1800, you should lose weight at a slow, steady pace (this is also a pretty healthy way to do it because losing weight quickly makes it more likely that you'll gain it all back once you've finished your diet). Of course, there are many ways to lose weight, but this is what worked for me.
Rainy Day thanks for your reply. This is so nice. Great job :) can you please share the app name?
Yesss!! I feel the same way now too about my sizing Thank you for saying it out loud girl!
I love your body positivity!!! I have had issues since middle school, and through to young adult. This channel has helped me in so many ways you dont even know...
Omg I also had a breakdown in a Hollister dressing room when I was a teenager! I wonder how many of us have shared this memory lol.
Carly Suplita same. Between the lighting and the tiny sizing you’d think they want you to hate yourself. Now I’m an adult and realize my body was fine. I just didn’t realize you’re set up to fail in that store at the time.
That was me last week lol
The great irony is that by stating that she does not look like a size 12, people are confirming the very point she is conveying in the video: How very different brands manufacture a size 12, and thus affecting the publics' perception accordingly. If this is aimed as an insult, the joke is actually on the person making the comment, because the very obvious point in this video escaped them.
Well she did literally say a true size 12, basically setting herself as a standard 12. Im an 8, and a lot thinner so yeah to me it seems weird.
Natasha Bergstrom an 8 is 2 sizes smaller so that makes sense
@@jehebdjbrbrve548 mhm, and i dont really know how many lbs per size is standard, but im a LOT thinner, im thinking maybe sizing might be different canada vs US (if thats where she was from) but a 12 would only be a little baggy on me
Well yeah, but also as a whole different countries have different sizes. Aka I’m from Australia and I’m a size 12, but my waist is 28/29 inches, whereas she was buying 31 inches. I was that waist size in 2017 and that waist size was/is considered a size 16 in Aus. And I remember going to Singapore when I was in high school and trying on clothes there and nothing fit because I‘m kinda tall (172cm) and I was quite taller than virtually all the women I saw there and so I was buying XXL or sometimes not being able to get anything at all. So it can also be a case of a different countries needs for clothing. But I do agree, I’ll go into a store and be a size 8 in shorts, or a size 14 in jeans, when I’m generally just a 12, or a size small in a top or if it’s got sleeves (I have broad-ish shoulders) then I’ll need to go up a size. It’s all pretty silly, but there’s no organisation that says “this is what a true size 12 is” because different companies from all over the world decide what this number means, and it’s just a pretty arbitrary number in general. When it comes to jeans/pants, sizing by waist size in inches as opposed to “size 12” is the best way to work it out because you can actually measure it yourself and you’ll probably be close most of the time.
Just came from your recent vlog. I'm like a size 2 and still have body image issues. I love your body positivity content. You're reaching so many different types of people. You should be so proud of what you are accomplishing. Keep your head up!
Girl, I'm watching this video for the first time and am tearing up! Thank you for being you and spreading self-love and confidence!!
Sizes are bullcrap! It can creep up on your self esteem and Thats Sad. Mens sizes fit me better than womens sizes. (Oh well, enough reason to keep stealing my boyfriends sweaters 😬). Don’t let sizes get into your head girls! You slay no matter what number ❤️
I remember someone saying once no one else sees the size on the label once you get them home and cut the tags off. If it truly bugs you that you are 16 instead of the 12 you used to be -cut the tag out yourself! If they look good - they are your size!
Wow that's genius. I'm doing that now
I saw the girl on What Not To Wear say, who cares about sizing. If you want to be a 6 and you're a 16? Scratch out that 1 and proof you're a 6.
Yeah, the point is to show that same size varies in different stores. She is a 12 in most of them
The point of this video wasn't about her forcing herself to fit into a particular size or caring about what other people thought of the size you wore. The point of it was to show the inconsistency in clothing sizes for women. It's just really disheartening that you can't just know that you're a size 10, 12, 14, 16,.... whatever that number is I'm just pick it up.
@@laurenc9458 or don't be a fat shaming ass. 🤷 You don't care about being "healthy," you just care about looking morally superior by policing other people's bodies.
Not even lying you make me more confident in my body you make me realize I can wear blouses and I was stuck with t-shirts because I thought I couldn’t wear them seeing you makes me more comfortable and realize that I can shop at certain stores that I didn’t think I could and now I’m going to try and shop at stores that I’ve always been too scared to look at, approach or even shop at.
I love your channel so much I have had body issues all my life and after binge watching your channel I finally had the courage to leave the house in a higheasted skirt and a crop top with a kimono over it and I went the whole day without thinking that people were looking at me you keep giving me confidence in my body thank you so much for giving us big girls the courage to do something everyday that we are scared to do ♡ keep up the good work!
what the heck. I’ve only watched one video and I already love her so much. She’s so inspiring😍
She is amazing. Hope you join her channel!
anessa whidbee sis ur picture i am SCREECGING rn😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ann boi😂😂😂 I’m so dead
anessa whidbee lol I like your profile pic
Breanna Camarena
Omggg thankss😂😂
Omg girl ur not alone on the hollister breakdown thingy. I ALWAYS leave the store crying 😂
IKR GIRL!!!
CliffordTheVulture aww
CliffordTheVulture I’m a teen and I’m her size and I range from a 9 to a 13 in there.
I love that you're so true to who you are and the realities of being a thicker girl. No negative self talk is ever spoken with you on your channel and I love that about you girl! I think we've all had a breakdown in a store because I've had my fair share forsure! Lol! Love your channel girl, THICK GIRLS RULE THE WORLD.
I think with hollister you should have tried a 13 because they are sized smaller in general.
Really? I'm not American find them true to size, even running big compared to UK/EU brands like Topshop.
I’m going to turn 32 in a few weeks (yikes!), and I STILL feel like an insecure teenage girl when shopping sometimes! Your channel has helped me improve my confidence because we’re a similar size and body shape. And if you can rock it, so can I! So thank you Sierra! 🥰
Sierra, I’m not surprised that your channel is growing the way it is - you are so good at this! The way you share your perspective is honest, positive, and infectiously charming! More importantly, your thoughtfully-worded messages are lighthearted, but powerful; you truly help people see themselves differently and feel good in their own bodies ... I get tears in my eyes thinking about it. I’m SO glad you’re doing what you’re doing, sis, and I wish you all the success in the world. ♥️
Hearing your story about that hollister dressing room is so relatable, I used to hate back to school shopping for the same reasons. New subscriber because i love your channel!
I love how your not afraid to express your body type you are a great role model for girls everywhere
The Hollister story was so heartwarming thank you for sharing a being a great role model 💖💖💖💖
This video was SO empowering and comforting for me. ❤️ From 85lbs to 180lbs and everything in between, I’ve always had a curvy build and I hated myself for it and put SO much stock in numbers (on the scale, in clothing sizes, etc). Now I realize that those things don’t matter and that my body is beautiful because it’s mine, and I LOVE that you preach that kind of message and do it in such a well-informed way. Well done ❤️
watching videos from you always leave me with a good feeling that fuels me for the rest of the day
So interesting that in a body positive video nearly all the comments are critiquing her body 🙄 we’ve still got a lot of work to do in lifting each other up.
Crystal Caffrey okay theres barely anyyy people critiquing her body so calm down
Brianna Brietzke agreed. I literally have not seen any
Brianna Brietzke me niether. This person is just making this up for likes
or the negative comments were more prevalent 6 months ago when they commented? the first reply was 2 months ago. last I watched this video, I found a plethora of hate comments - so, no, not lying at all. ya’ll just came late.
I would definitely recommend finding your size of jeans in american eagle jeans to all people because they are probably the best jeans in my opinion. They are such great quality for the price and fit curvy girls so great!
K i work there and i’ve worn american eagle since i was 13, now i’m 18. the clothes are really great, usually modest but super comfy and cute. the freaking jeans kick ass.
K the iiii
they stay in tact for a long time too!! really amazing jeans
I vibe with this video so hard!! Women’s sizing SUCKS. I’m pretty thin but I have an hourglass shape and I’m very top heavy and I have pants ranging from 0-9 or XS-XL and tops ranging from S-XXL and I hate trying clothing on because I struggle a lot with my body image and weight and I always have sobbing fits in the changing rooms. I’m so glad I watched this video because it genuinely helped me see that those sobbing fits are unnecessary and the fit of those pants or tops aren’t because I’m “fat” or “worthless” or “too big” it’s because sizing is different everywhere and women’s sizing is awful.
You said you're pretty thin, so obviously you are not fat or too big...🤔🤔
thank you for the body positivity! you are so inspiring.
Rewatching this gives me so much nostalgia because it’s the first video I watched of yours which got me instantly hooked!
Awesome vid but why did you size down in Hollister? I go to hollister a lot (I’m in highschool) and like you said, they are mainly for teens. Wouldn’t it make more sense to size up?
Yeah I didn’t get that lol
The whole video was her trying on her true size 12 in all stores to see the difference in size 12
Pellinor I’m pretty sure she was aware of that but she was just trying on different size 12s in different stores
@@franciscabarcenas7163 I know but if they didn't have even numbers and she had to pick between 11 and 13, 13 is closer to a regular 12.
Someone said 11 is closer to 12
You have to get those Good American jeans, they looked amazing, you deserve to treat yourself 😂 but there’s a 30-60% sale on their website rn !!
Kelvinkat321 Their jeans are the best! I bought a pair a little over a year ago and ended up selling all of my other jeans and now I only wear GA 😂
I'm curvy and I LOVE shopping, no one is gonna stop me. And this video helped me a lot! Thank you!
Came to share love from a video you made about the comment section on this video! You are an inspiration! 🦋🦋🦋🦋
It makes sense that men usually have an easier time with sizing in comparison to women. Men don't typically have curves in their hips, butt, and thighs like women do. Curves are complicated because not every woman is curvy in the same way, which makes it a challenge for designers. At least there is options at different places. Just don't get discouraged trying to find them!
Lizard Stauss A guy here with large thighs/butt and a curvy body shape. Not all guys have that stick and flat stomach thing going on. Literally anyone can have a curvy body. Just frustrates me when it comes to jeans. They almost never fit me because of this. Women at least have options to combat these issues, but men have nothing. Every store is like Hollister for curvy women to put it into perspective.
@@owen_z_schwartz I get it. I'm just saying it is more common for women to have curves than not, but yes I agree that anyone can have curves. I hope there will be options out there for you in the near future. Even as a girl with options I still have a hard time.
Also if it gets too difficult guys will find something different to buy
She’s moreso talking about how a 33/34 in men’s jeans will be the same for many stores but women’s sizes will be a 8/9 in one store but a 29/30 in another store or a medium/large in yet another store.
It's also easier to design for men because of that. For the most part, men are shaped the same. Sure, some may have beer bellies or extra-large shoulders, but almost all have a rectangular box shape because male fat distributes itself differently than female fat. There's also the fact that men typically don't give a shit what size they are.
I’m only 5 minutes in but Hollister’s jeans run so small. I am usually a size 6 in jeans and I had to size up to 11 and that was still snug.
that's so weird because I usually wear a size 7 and their jeans fit me perfectly!
I find that my normal size fits with them, but I don't like the style of hollister, imo it's quite an ugly clothing line.
Ashley ASHLEYM personally I love their jeans! The only jeans I will wear are from Hollister
Richa Shah same. The rest of their clothes are ehh but I love their jeans!!
really?? im confused because i wear a size 0 there and size 2-4 everywhere else
I love this video. What a refreshing attitude, your bright personality made me instantly happy. You are beautiful!!
Im having such a positive experience watching all ypur videos. I know you probably wont see this as this video is 7 months old but that story about being in the change room going back to school shopping with your mum and just loosing it because nothing fits... It's so good to know we aren't alone. And it's good to see some companies are changing their tune and putting real sizes out there 😊
