Waist is the smallest part.
Hips are over the widest bit I believe.

Have you got a clothing catalogue? They usually have a section in the back showing you exactly where/how to measure yourself.

Couldn't tell you, I'm afraid, as they all seem to merge into one with me. There's a size chart in the Shop With Confidence Section here .

Do you mean what your ideal weight should be? Doubt you would find your actual weight as some people are more muscly than others, and as muscle is heavier than fat ...
My friend and I are both size 14, but she is nearly a stone heavier than me as she is all muscle, whereas I am a big lump of wobbly lard.

Um, wouldn't have thought you could find out your actual weight just by measurements due to everyone having a different BMI. Like I said my friend and I are technically the same size, but there's a vast weight difference, not to mention that our body shapes are nothing like similar (she is willowy-looking and I am more on the marshmallowy side).
If you've not got scales could you nip down to Boots tomorrow as they have in-store scales, at least ours has and the shop's tiny.
