What size do you think she is?

I know, I know. I shouldn't read the DM, but its my guilty pleasure to read the showbiz pages.

Anyway, I saw this www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2129370/Natalie-Cassidy-squeezes-pair-tight-fitting-bottoms.html and I have a pair of similar jeans and wondered if thats what I look like in them. Mine are slightly darker but still, very similar.

What dress size do you think she is? I'm trying to gauge if that is what I look like in mine and maybe I'm blissfully ignorant of what I actually look like in them!

I think she's probably a 10 actually. She has a small frame and although she isn't thin she looks slim, she doesn't look that bad in those jeans. I wear a 10-12 in clothes and yet I am really quite chubby, certainly chubbier than her, because I should be a size 6-8 but have kept the baby weight.

GilbertandGeorge · 13/04/2012 20:20

Size 10?? No.

16

Encouraging to see most of the comments below are actually supporting NC and her right to wear what the hell she wants - not you lot leaving them is it? Grin

Similarly nasty article today about Ladies' Day at Aintree. Every year they do it. Yes, most of them look a bit of a state but just so wrong to make fun of them for getting dolled up and having a big day out. I always feel really sorry for them. What harm are they doing?

PuffPants · 13/04/2012 20:22

I mean the comments below the DM article...

CupOfBrownJoy · 13/04/2012 20:24

Funnily enough Puff I just started a thread on exactly that.... Its awful. Angry

droves · 13/04/2012 20:28

Think she's about a 12.

Horrible horrible jeans ...dark ones would have looked good.

Wonderful hair though ...vavavoom hair !

HappyHarmony · 13/04/2012 20:31

Droves I thought her hair was a too-old-for-her style, especially with that necklace. I think she looked fabulous with her hair like this i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/04/10/article-2127428-1288BB4D000005DC-709_468x326.jpg and she should do it like that again, she looked younger and less 30 going on 50.

She is stacked, no way she's smaller on top than on bottom, the other way around, for sure. I am a classic hourglass & am a 14-16 on top, 8-10 on bottom. She's not as symmetrical as me, but still no pear-shape, either.

I don't think she looks bad at all. I would criticise her top more than her bottom, for not making better use of her natural curves. Don't know if beige ever flatters anyone, either.

piratecat · 13/04/2012 20:59

just bloody awful jeans on anyone. if you have boobs like that you need a nice bra too under a flesh coloured top.

ledkr · 13/04/2012 21:05

She looks ok,blimey no wonder we all have body hang ups.

ggirltwin2pinot · 13/04/2012 21:14

bloody misogynistic shite

KristinaM · 13/04/2012 21:27

What ggtwin said

drywhiteplease · 13/04/2012 21:51

I think the Daily Mail are hideous mean people. Poor girl, next thing shell be anorexic and they will say she's too thin.

villydilly · 13/04/2012 21:55

I'd say she is a 14, not a 12.

AmberLeaf · 13/04/2012 23:09

Actually agree with drywhite, this is just ripping the piss out of someones outfits and will do nowt but damage, tbh who hasnt worn a shit unflattering ensemble in their time? lord only knows I have!

Shes a woman and from what ive read/seen shes had a bit of a time of it lately...,.....so I will say......good bloody luck to you Natalie!.......and FUCK THE FUCK OFF DAILY FUCKING BLOODY MAIL

DilysPrice · 13/04/2012 23:13

To be fair, she does seem to make a good chunk of her income from her weight loss and gain - if it wasn't for the DM running stories like this she'd be homeless.

DilysPrice · 13/04/2012 23:18
  • actually that was harsh wasn't it, I'm sorry, it's a bloody awful game to play even if the supposed target is compliant.
DilysPrice · 13/04/2012 23:19

compliant ....complaisant

FoofFighter · 13/04/2012 23:24

12 top 14 bottom.

Back shots don't look too good but front one looked ok and on the LW shot she looked tiny compared to them.

I think she looks good. i'd be more than happy to have her figure.

Iamgiulietta · 13/04/2012 23:58

12-14

startail · 14/04/2012 00:04

Slightly smaller than me, 14-16.
The outfit is just Yuck, beige satin is never a good look in day time and surely needs black, brown or white trousers.
Part neutral, part pastel is just wrong!

stayfree · 14/04/2012 01:09

Definitely no smaller than a 14..

thefroggy · 14/04/2012 01:25

I'd say 12-14 top and 16 bottom. I'd actually rather be that shape. I've quite broad shoulders and big norks but no hips and tiny bum...I look like im about to topple over most of the time. I'd love to wear nice flowing tops but if I do, I look very pregnant, they just hang off my boobs like a tent. Clothes shopping is no fun at all!

HappyAsEyeAm · 14/04/2012 04:54

About a 12/14. She is my height, and I find that if I put on weight, I don't carry it at all well, and I don't have the confidence to just wear whatever I want and think sod it.

I look in proportion when I am a size 10 and about 8 stone 5. Its because of my frame.Otherwise I tend towards the barrel shape and a big muffin top creeps in and its all downhill from there.

That said, even at 8 st 5, I would look dreadful in what she is wearing. I 100% suport her right to wear it without the DM publishing such horrendous criticism though.

NightLark · 14/04/2012 06:56

Amazed how small people are guessing. I'd have said a 16 easily. Unless she is only 4' tall.
