I just received two pairs of leggings from two different consultants this week. I bought OS because my first pair is an OS and they fit so nicely. The new ones are a little more snug than my first pair. The also don't come up as high on my waist as the first pair and kind of cuts me right in the belly. Neither are as comfy as my first pair. I bought a solid pair mostly for my dd but I will probably sell the printed pair. Should I really be wearing T&C? I'm 5'1" and about 164lbs. I normally wear a 10 or 12 in pants so I guess I am kind of in the middle of their sizing but the T&C just looks a little too long for me. I've noticed a lot of people comment about where the pieces are made and noticing a discrepancy in the fit. The new pieces were made in China and my original pair was made in Vietnam. Also, my Irma top is more of a polyester fabric but when I tried on my friends, it felt more like cotton. I don't hate the new top but was really thinking I was getting more of a cotton top.
What's the deal with the varying pieces? I'm having a pop up party at my house next week so hopefully I can find some better fitting leggings.

Ok another sizing question... i was thinking of getting a pair for my daughter... she is 5'10... but wears 8-10... So i was thinking TC because she is tall... but not super curvy... im sure OS will be short on her... lengthwise... but i don't know... Soooo what do consultants suggest?

What's the deal with the varying pieces? I'm having a pop up party at my house next week so hopefully I can find some better fitting leggings. My mother is about your height & weight & she wears TC. She just pulls up the extra material & it kind of distributes around her middle instead of her ankles. Where items are produced isn't what causes variations in the fit, it's how they're produced. The fabric is stretched taut & layered in a big stack. A giant rotary cutter cuts through the stack & depending on where a piece of fabric is in the stack can change the size - it's just the nature of the process. As far as the Irma material, LuLaRoe makes the same styles (except leggings) in TONS of different fabrics. Most are polyester based, but there's also rayon, cotton & a really cool recycled fabric called Recover Blue. If you're buying on-line, you can always ask the consultant before you buy for more details. Hope that helps!

Yeah, she's kind of right in between! The One Size will likely fit her more like capris, which won't matter too much in the cooler paired with boots & will be cute in the warmer months. The TC is likely too big, but if you can have her try them on in person at some point, you might be surprised.
