In your opinion, what is the best size clothes to fit into?

So I've dropped a lot of weight, and am looking for opinions on what sized clothes looks best for a tall (5'9") middle aged, athletic curvy type woman.

Update:

I'm not there yet, size 14 right now but have bought some inspirational size 10's that I can get on and buttoned though they look too small, lol.

    I'd have to agree with most of the others. I think somewhere between size 10-12 is perfect for a naturally tall, curvy woman. Med-Large in shirts. Size 6 in undergarments. Those are the most common sizes to find, and there are a lot more choices in clothing if you are right around those sizes too. Wish I could join you in that, but I am still in a size 20 in pants...so I have a long way to go yet. Congrats to you on the weight loss and keep up the amazing work. It doesn't matter what size you fit in, as long as you like the way you look and the clothes you wear.

    12 is a great size for a tall middle aged woman. I am also tall (5"9") and large boned and look quite curvaceous in certain clothing. I can wear 14's too, depending on the cut and style of the clothing.

    It all depends on your bone type and structure.

    Fortunately, every person is unique and we all do not have to be the size of Twiggy to look good!

    I would agree with the answer above me. A size 10 is a great size. Not to curvy and not too skinny! Congrats on the weight loss.

    12-13ish.... Am i shooting too big? I know every woman has a different body type.. Im only 5' 2" but have big hips (no matter how much running i do lol) and wear a size 11.. Not fat or anything but its just my body frame. People act surprised when i tell them i wear 11's. So it all depends on your frame really..

    I would say size 12 (English size) is perfect for you. I don't believe in ladies being too skinny. I like a bit of curve is more sexy and feminin.
