I am 18, 4'8'', with a 24'' waist, 28'' hips, 34'' bust, and 25'' legs.
How am I meant to buy any sort of jeans that fit me?
Also, I am a C cup but no bra I ever seem to get fits because of how small my back is. Sometimes 34s will fit, other times they won't.

I cannot find clothes to fit me perfectly (and I like them to fit like a glove, no baggy things) because I am so short, skinny, but I am in proportion to the rest of me.
I'm that short that I can't find any jeans that will fit me in the leg & in the hips perfectly.
Given my hips and leg measurements, I'm actually an age 10 in jeans. How depressing. Yes, it's cheaper, but do they do kids skinny jeans? I found some acid wash ones from debenhams but it was a bit steep. I have no idea where to buy clothes from. Someone please help. Holiday soon and I'm stuck :(

I am the opposite in figure and age to you but I would really recommend looking in H&M. They definitely do skinny jeans for girls as well as a host of other stuff that might suit (I have little boys so never looked in the girls section properly but it looks like they do decent basics - you will need to rummage a bit). The smallest sizes in their adult jeans look tiny to me as well but may be too long for you. But definitely look there.

Also - are you sure you are a 34C - have you looked at a bra intervention thread?

Also, while I think on it, summer is the ideal time to try cropped trousers (lots of lovely patterned ones about), which you might find easier to fit than jeans and less hot!

Have you tried Gap girls for jeans? Also try Asos because they go down to UK size 2 and size 4 in clothes in petite. You may still need to have the jeans shortened. One trick is to learn to alter clothes yourself or get it altered to fit - it makes an amazing difference.

I second looking at the bra intervention thread.

This is one of the bra intervention threads Smile
Sorry can't help with the jeans!

Johnnie B or Boden's general kids section for jeans. Proper skinnies.

Miss Selfridge also do super small sizes although you would have to get them taken up.

My MIL measured my back for me and said I was a 34. I have a huge rib cage.
Thank you everyone, I'll be sure to have a look :)
