I’m a size 8 and did a Skims haul in small to medium – I wish I’d gone bigger in nearly every item, they were tiny
SKIMS, the shapewear and loungewear line by Kim Kardashian, is known for its flattering styles and body-sucking undergarments.
Fashion lover Brooke, or @brooketarynartistry on TikTok, made the mistake of ordering Skims pieces in a size small to medium – but nothing fit.
Posting to her TikTok account, she explained her usual sizing: “I’m 5’5”, 150 pounds. Usually an eight in things. Small/Medium on tops, medium/large on bottoms, and size 28 waist.”
She began her haul with the bone-colored Cozy Knit Tank and Shorts set, which is on sale for $56 in total.
“So cute. This is the small/medium but I almost feel like I could have gotten the medium/large just for a cozier fit because I’m never going to go out in public in these shorts.
“The top I also feel like I could have sized up in as well.”
The shorts hugged her bottom a little too tight, and the top was more cropped on her than pictured on the website, making them slightly uncomfortable.
Next, she tried on a pair of brown Velour Bike Shorts in size medium, which are on sale for $26.
“When I first put them on, I was like, ‘Oh no, they cut off my thighs.’ Which they do a little bit, but now seeing it it’s not that bad.”
She paired the shorts with the Fits Everybody Scoop Bralette ($34) in a size small, and it revealed too much chest for her liking.
“Definitely wish I would have sized up. I wish I would have gotten a medium.”
Her last two items were two pairs of underwear – both size medium.
The first was the high-waisted Cotton Rib Brief, which she said she would wear with low-rise sweatpants.
And the second was the Fits Everybody Cheeky Brief, and she was skeptical about the fit.
“Definitely wish I would have gotten a much larger size in these. I haven’t tried them on but they kind of look really tiny.”
Her overall advice was to size up, and viewers were thankful for the haul.
“I was looking for sizing specifically, found this, and we are the EXACT same size! Thank you!!” one person wrote.
“You are beautiful,” added another.
