to be annoyed at having to find somewhere else to buy pants now that M&S have changed their sizing?

So, I stroll along hoping to pick up some of my boring usual 12-14s when to my shock and horror I am mildly perturbed by the new sizings of 10-12 and 14-16. So I pick up the 14-16 on the basis that I am actually a 14 and go to pay.

But when the assistant takes them of the hanger, they are ginourmous!! (is that a real word)

Try them on and they fall off me. Try the 10-12s and they are unsurprisingly a tad snug.

I have been buying M&S pants longer than I care to remember and I am a little heartbroken. And possibly need to lose some weight.

Can anyone suggest somewhere else to buy nice pants that are a bit colourful and a size 14? Or preferably a 13.

NOTE: all pant-trying-on was done over the OP's own underwear.

Just checked the M&S knickers I bought recently and they are just size 12, not 10-12 or 12-14 (the no VPL range, most comfortable ones I've ever bought.)
