I'll put that book on my "must read" list.

I gave her size 16 silk lined Talbot slacks. She gave me back size 18 slacks, that were of a brand I never heard of.
I am now in the process of handling this matter through other means.
It's hard to understand how such a mistake could happen.
I bet the woman who got slacks that were too small was equally upset.

I think Meryl Streep is the BEST actor in movies, she is so talented and can play any role convincingly.
