Okay, so I’ve been eyeing Lauren Conrad’s clothing line for a while now. Her style is just so cute and chic, you know? But the big question always is: does it fit true to size? I mean, nobody wants to order online and end up with something that’s way too small or too big. So, I decided to take the plunge and do a little experiment of my own.
First, I headed to the store that carries her line. I grabbed a bunch of different items – tops, dresses, and even some bottoms. I noticed that the tops and dresses seemed pretty consistent with my usual size. I usually wear a medium, and the medium in Lauren Conrad’s tops fit me just right. They weren’t too tight or too loose, just a nice, comfortable fit. One of the dresses I tried on had a boxy design, and I could wear it without any problems.
But here’s where it got a little tricky. The bottoms. Oh, the bottoms. I tried on a pair of jeans in my usual size, and let me tell you, it was a struggle. I managed to squeeze into them, but they were definitely snug. I also tried on a skirt, and it was the same story. I even tried the 3-6 month clothes for my daughter, because I used to buy Carters which run 24-27 inches, but when I measured, I found that 3-6 month LC clothes are 23.5-25.5in and 25.5-27.5in for 6-9. It’s a little confusing.
So, I decided to try a size up in the jeans and the skirt. And guess what? They fit perfectly! They were still flattering and stylish, but way more comfortable. I also took some measurements just to be sure. I followed this tip I found online – stand with your heels together and use a tape measure around the fullest part of your hips and rear. For inseam, I used a pair of my own pants that fit me best to compare.
My Conclusion
Based on my little experiment, here’s my advice when it comes to Lauren Conrad’s clothing line:
- Tops and Dresses: You’re probably safe sticking with your usual size. They seem to be pretty true to size, at least in my experience.
- Bottoms: Consider sizing up, especially if you’re between sizes or prefer a more relaxed fit.
Of course, everyone’s body is different, so your experience might be a bit different. But hopefully, my little experiment will help you make a more informed decision when shopping for Lauren Conrad’s clothes. Happy shopping, everyone!
