Warning, warning! Buying at the lowest point (ie., the ideal) is a bad, bad idea. Trust me - I have a number of taken-in size 0P suits gathering dust*. True, sweaters have some more flexibility, but at times I do wish my penchant for form-fitting this or that had been tempered when I was in the bottom of the adult sizes. On the other hand, true, size Ms when you'll ultimately settle comfortably at an S (if not an XS) are unappealing as well. Overall, I'd suggest saving the big buys for the size/weight you'll likely stay, ideal or not. Or, just be reasonable most all the time!
*And oh! that XS 22" Ferragamo belt....

I think to guestimate high or low is a bad idea. Some of my sweaters [silk nylon blends] hang on me now. My most recent silk sweaters are a size smaller and are fine. I think high end purchases should be put on hold, agreed. My 6P suits are like dead to me now. Shoes and bags always fit, especially Ferragamo [except with pregnancy and feet, they swell]
