Hi girlies. I don’t own lots of OA so I’m a bit lost here.
I purchased a pair of unified black shorts in XS during the sale (that’s consistently my size across brands) and after trying them on I feel I need to return them since they feel too tight around my waist and a bit around the thighs! I own a pair of XS effortless and they fit perfectly.
Now after reading some posts I learned (maybe too late) that unified is more compressive, however a full size difference seems like too much. There’s 0 disclaimer on the website about this and I’m super disappointed because I wanted these shorts in black so bad.
Pictures for reference about the size difference, grey is effortless, black is unified.
Is this a definitely return situation?

Hello community!
Looking for ideas about travelling with senior dogs in cars.
My 13 year-old cocker spaniel has come a long way from hiding and shaking and panting in the car to sitting comfortably with me on the passenger seat! Took years and now she even switches her weight based on the car movement 🥹 but I’ve been noticing that the position is starting to feel uncomfortable for her hips since she sinks in the seat a bit.

I’ve tried putting a folded towel in the deepest part of the seat but doesn’t make a difference and I also want her to be safe in case the car brakes unexpectedly. I’ve considered just switching to the back seat since she’s lying down but she gets less of the car experience that took years for her to tolerate.

Do you guys use harnesses or special seats or something else?
Pictures of my pup for reference and because why not!! Thanks
