I try to stay closer in size for leggings. The ones she has on are capris, in a size 7. The waist and body on the 8 would be way too big. But I know she'll still be able to wear these for at least another year because the waist is so stretchy and comfortable.Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14963099760885760598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9146144046605838200.post-79198843142050096322013-07-29T16:45:30.706-04:002013-07-29T16:45:30.706-04:00A size 9 or 10?

You had also mentioned that you scrunch the leggings up too- does that mean you purchase the leggings that much larger as well? I wish we had thrift stores that carried nice things like this. I've been to ours and have rarely found what Im looking for. My best is going to the Gymb@ree outlet when we are at my folks house and hitting the clearance racks.

The lady also helped us find a pr of xtra wide ten ish shoes so we didn't have to go up 3 sizes to get her feet in the shoes with the orthotic. Lastly, I am looking at cascade DAFO s next time. Our insurance went cover them but we can use our flex spending account in them and quite possibly be able to wear more styles of shoes.<br /><br />Becca, I never would have thought of a top over a dress like this! I love this look! This color is our go to with Grace- the peach/strawberry. Right now I am knitting a tunic and will sew up lace capris for her to wear with it! Can't wait. Thank you for the awesome ideas.

She does better in dresses so we can avoid button in clips so I'm always looking for cute leggings to accent the uniform since our school doesn't regulate those!

It'...I tend to go a little bit big in leggings. It's not like they're going to fall off in most cases, since they're so stretchy. If the backside is saggy and the legs are long, I make sure I have it layered under something long enough to cover it and roll the pantlegs a little or scrunch them up to mid-calf. And, depending on who's selling them, some tend to run smaller than others so I know to go bigger (can't think off-hand who runs small, but Crazy 8's tight knit fabric, seen all the way on the left in the photos, different than their regular cotton stretch, *does* run small).

I think I've been purchasing things a little too small- buying the exact size she is in. I just recently learned about crazy 8, my daughter has one in KS and bought little G the cutest sweater dress for Christmas. She commented on the pricing. I might have to start sending her $$ to shop for little sister!
