love in a one piece

pros:
It made me sad that most people don't even realize your wearing a one piece when your rocking this TNF one piece. This suit has a hood that actually goes over your helmet. Total bombshell. The fit is perfect! (small - 4'3") and the legs don't drag on the ground. the inside has this wonderful corduroy and purple satin. and most of the time I could just wear a t shirt and shorts under this and be so comfy in the middle of a freaking blizzard. love the bold colors and the quality is so supreme for the price. I don't look like a snowbunny but also it doesn't look like a sack. So So happy.
cons:
my only downfall is trying to go to the bathroom and the Sleeves are yellow and they are hard not to attract dirt from getting in and out of the car.

I agree it is sad people can't really see it's a one-piece suit. After all, one-pieces are so much better and more fun, and also looks so much better, so you want it to show. Still, this is the only one-piece for women Backcountry is selling right now, it seems. Good then that it is good enough to get five stars from you anyway, this makes me able to recommend it to people.

I can't decide whether to go for a small or medium, do you mind posting your specs? height, weight? normail size in ski clothes? that would help me out hugely! thanks!
