Ok sorry link to Daily Mail httpwww.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2034066/Kirstie-Allsopp-reveals-shes-worlds-sexiest-ladies-vacation-vacation-vacation.html
Ok now normally I would tend to avoid posting DM links of ladies in their swimming garments, but as I am an actual 12-14 either I have an extremely postively distorted view of my own body ( unlikely) or KA is a somewhat bigger size.

EVERY YEAR i look at the allsop and think, hally are you fatter than her?

she is the Plimsoll line of fat in my head.

HallnotOates · 06/09/2011 16:05

the comments on that thing are very funny.

BananaMontana · 06/09/2011 16:07

Maybe she is 5'1"? Then that would make sense.
Who cares, she looks great though!

rookiemater · 06/09/2011 16:09

Yes but is she a size 12-14, I care

HallnotOates · 06/09/2011 16:10

i STARE at her

am i fatter or thinner

she is teh demarcation of obese

noddyholder · 06/09/2011 16:28

She is so pretty in a henrietta kind of way. I think I am 12-14 but if I am that size I am going to start low carbing immediately

candytuft63 · 06/09/2011 16:30

It depends how tall she is.My friend is a size 20-22, but at 5ft 8 looks gorgeous really curvy/voluptuous. I am a 16 and look like a weeble.

HenriettaFarthingay · 06/09/2011 16:32

I don't think she looks remotely like a 12/14, but she is a lovely, beautifully proportioned lady. Wish my wobbles would curve like that.

noddyholder · 06/09/2011 16:33

She is like nigella kind of gets away with it because of her other attributes

Thepoweroforangeknickers · 06/09/2011 16:34

I hate that bloody woman and all her property ramping business. She's caussed misery to lots of idiots who followed her advice and bought "property"

picnicbasketcase · 06/09/2011 16:35

She's a 16-18 if ever I saw one. And I have seen several. Maybe she should wear less wool.

LillianGish · 06/09/2011 16:35

I think she looks gorgeous in those photos - especially if you consider they are not posed/photoshopped etc a la most of the celebs you see in Hello etc.

talkingnonsense · 06/09/2011 16:37

Well she looks bigger in that photo, but she is definitely thinner than me when on tv and I am 5'4 and a 12/14. I think it's just a bad shot. I like her figure, and think she dresses well for it.

The daily Mail doesn't actually like women - her phot ohas been put there to invite lots of comments about how fat she is. Tomorrow there will be a photo of Leanne Rimes to invite lots of comments about how she should eat a burger.

banana87 · 06/09/2011 17:01

12-14 for a top maybe. Not for trousers.

rookiemater · 06/09/2011 17:03

Scribbler - The DM does frequently comment on males on their holidays as well ( perhaps not as frequently as the females)

But then any woman who looks comfortable in only a bathing suit without some cover-up/kaftan/sarong is good!!

I never know about sizing - it is such a minefield and so varies ...

ForYourDreamsAreChina · 06/09/2011 17:07

I imagine she's a 12-14 in the same way that Natalie Cassidy is a 10 and Dawn French a 16. (ie in that parallel universe I'd very much like to be transported too known as Meedja Measurements)

PennyFothaguy · 06/09/2011 17:08

Feltz is my plimsoll line of fat

She's a 12, apparently

VivaLeBeaver · 06/09/2011 17:08

I would say that im very close in size to her and I'm a size 16.

rookiemater · 06/09/2011 17:09

I feel mean for posting it now, Kirstie you are a fantastic woman, I was just looking for a reference point against my own size not just making cheap digs
Oh yes how about Vanessa Feltz I remember when she was allegedly a size 12 as well

OP posts:
VivaLeBeaver · 06/09/2011 17:10

Apparently she is 5ft 7"
