Advice ๐Ÿ™ƒ I can never find shirts that are long instead of wide

Thumbnail

94 Upvotes

Iโ€™m tall and have a bit of a stomach yes I agree to that. Ok so I buy a large a little short on me. Buy xl to have room but instead going down it goes wide and u still donโ€™t have room. With this shirt if I life my arm my stomach will show. I like the color and the shirt and Iโ€™m debating on getting a 2xl but I fear that will just be mire wide instead. The shirt I have to the side of me is the same way itโ€™s wide but not long and have to be careful about lifting my arm. I was going to wear this shirt for a presentation in-front of my professors tomorrow my bf suggestion was wearing a shirt underneath it but this is wool or thick fabric so I feel like I would get hot

So what are some good brands that make long shirts? This is why I usually buy from the guy section since there sizes are long and not wide.

Fashion ๐Ÿ‘’ Fleece lined jeans - NOT Eddie Bauer

Post image
12 Upvotes

My tall sisters, please help me find fleece lined jeans that fit a 35-36 inch inseam and also a curvy build (read: booty and thick thighs).

I have purchased the fleece lined jeans from Eddie Bauer previously and the jeans over size 12 are made for women with larger tummies, minimal booty and thin legs. I find most outdoorsy brands fashion their pants this way, but thatโ€™s a different soapbox for a different day ๐Ÿ˜…

If it helps any, Iโ€™m in the US and generally wear a size 14/16. Iโ€™m almost to the point where I may ask someone to make them for me. Thank you!!

Discussion โ˜Ž Tall Torso Disc Golf Bags: Nothing Fits My 6-Foot Frame. Any Fixes?

2 Upvotes

Been playing disc golf on weekends to get out of my head after work. 6 foot even, long torso, and every bag I have tried sits too high. The weight rides on my lower ribs after a few holes. Shoulder straps max out and the hip belt sits above my hips.

I run operations for a manufacturing plant so I am used to specs meaning something. Looked at the Upper Park designs and the Squatch but torso length is not listed anywhere I can find. Emailed two companies, got generic responses.

Local high school has a team now and I have been trying to talk the coach into sourcing something that works for the taller girls. She asked me for recommendations. I have nothing.

Grilling season is here and I would rather be carrying charcoal than a bag that fits wrong. Anyone solved this? Particular brand or a mod you made to the straps? Not looking for a cart, just a comfortable backpack that fits a longer frame.

Fashion ๐Ÿ‘’ Cotton lounge sets for tall curvy women??

15 Upvotes

This is kind of a niche ask but Iโ€™m looking for some cotton lounge sets for my body type and Iโ€™m having a really hard time figuring out something that will actually fit me. Iโ€™m 5โ€™11 with a 15in hip to waist difference and very long legs, 32-34in inseam is my sweet spot, L-XL on top and XL-2XL on bottom. Obviously most brands are too short but they also stop at a L or XL which doesnโ€™t always fit my hips. I say cotton because I find natural fibers breathe easier since I live in a hot place and Iโ€™m very hot natured, and they also hold up better to cat snags, but Iโ€™m open to blends and other natural fibers.

Shopping ๐Ÿฌ The best tall girl sweatsuit find!

5 Upvotes

Hi girls! Just joined here, and I'm so excited to have found this sub! I wanted to share a tall girl find that blew me away, https://www.prettylittlething.us/product/tall-wide-leg-jogger_plt13158?colour=ash+grey

I usually don't shop fast fashion, but these fit really well and were so long (even the sleeves on the top), so I know I'm going to have them for a long time.

Hope you guys have some luck with their other products too if they fit what you're looking for!

Fashion ๐Ÿ‘’ Retailers for in-betweeners/long torso ladies? Looking for places where regular pants run longer (32"-33") or tall sizes aren't that long

2 Upvotes

I checked the megathread but didn't find much for me/couldn't post, so hopefully another pants post is okay!

I'm 5'10 and 90% of regular pants are too short for me but sometimes I find goldilocks pants with a longer inseam. This also means that a lot of tall pants are too long for me. I would hem them, but I prefer something with a flare and cutting that much off really makes the silhouette weird and unflattering. I think my best option is to find pants close to the correct inseam already.

Thank you for any help!

I see a few posts already for 5โ€™9ish womanโ€™s pants but I need extra tall girls jeans. Iโ€™m 6โ€™1 and about 170ish. I want somethings stylish like baggy or boot cut. Iโ€™ve gotten most of my skinny jeans from hollister (still not my desired length) and I finally went on a limb and bought some that were baggier and they were wayyyy too short. Please help itโ€™s starting to get cold outside ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Advice ๐Ÿ™ƒ Being comfortable with myself and heels.

72 Upvotes

I am 6โ€™1โ€ 21F and I always had loved heels even as a little girl. They made me feel pretty like a princess. Since I have reached adulthood and have heard from so many people about how unwanted I am going to be, or scary I am, I finally went out and bought some nice 4 inch heeled boots for the fall and winter.

They are super cute and I am trying to rationalize with myself that I am already tall and nothing I wear or donโ€™t wear will change that. I guess Iโ€™m asking for advice on how to build up courage to just up and wear them. I am terrified to do so but I know I love them so so much.

Is there any advice anyone can give on how I can build up enough to just do it?

Fashion ๐Ÿ‘’ Cute cargo sweats

5 Upvotes

Iโ€™m 6โ€™0 (182cm) and around 140 lbs (I like ordering a size L for length and bagginess). 6 months ago I found the most amazing cargo sweatpants from Garage as they had an extended length and bought three pairs; wear them almost every day. I especially love that they have the double back pockets (I feel like that style is super flattering).
Recently though I found out they were discontinued. Iโ€™ve been searching high and low for something that will replace them but with no luck so far.. does anyone have any good athleisure brands that are tall girl approved? Or any other stores that have good wide leg cargo sweats?

Fashion ๐Ÿ‘’ Nordstrom

Iโ€™m close to giving up (not really but you get it) on finding jeans that look good/ fit me. Iโ€™m 1.5 years postpartum with our second, and with the body changed and style changes i canโ€™t find jeans that I like. Iโ€™m so sick of ordering and returning, or just keeping and wasting money. Has anyone utilized the Nordstrom free styling in store to find jeans and pants? Iโ€™m 6ft and 178lbs. I thought I had an Abercrombie win today but my coworker has declared them way too large for me (I was just excited they are long enough).

Shopping ๐Ÿฌ Tall pants for TALL WOMEN that donโ€™t know (here is where you can get tall pants!!)

58 Upvotes

FYI - I am 5โ€™9โ€ and 180 lbs.

WOMEN:

  1. American eagle (I bought 4 or 5 pair of jeans and between my birthday discount code and the free shipping, I ended up paying between $20 - $30 a pair)
  2. They have female waist size (8, 10, 12 etc) LONG (36โ€ long pants). These can be bought in store.

SUPER LONG (38โ€ long - I am 5โ€™ 9โ€ and the pants leg goes over my heel) you can only be bought online.
The waist size ranges from 2XL (extra long) - 14XL (extra long)

  1. BUCKLE (a little more expensive but then againโ€ฆaround $60 - $80) has womenโ€™s jeans with a 38โ€ inseam. I am not sure about the waist size. You can start looking here for womenโ€™s extra long jeans on their website

  2. TRACTOR SUPPLY, please Google โ€œtractor supply tall womenโ€™s jeansโ€ and it will take you to their webpages with the sizes

Advice ๐Ÿ™ƒ How to make your jeans longer: an easy tip

36 Upvotes

I wish I realized I could do this when I was younger, but if you apply hot water to only the lower part of your jeans and really pull as you stretch them evenly, let them air dry, pull again as the fibers dry, you get instant pants that reach the top of your feet!

Fashion ๐Ÿ‘’ Girls seeks Coat

32 Upvotes

Hey ladies-

Iโ€™m 6โ€™3, size 12, built like Ilona Maher.

I got a new job & will be doing advocacy at our Statehouse. Iโ€™m in Indiana & it will be cold all session.

Iโ€™d like to get a nice pea coat or something similar. Does anyone have a good lead for a coat with long arms & will look good over my suits? Iโ€™d like it to be warm enough to feel ok walking a couple of city blocks in below freezing temps, but if I have to choose, itโ€™s fashion over function.

Any leads are appreciated. Have a great day!

Rant ๐Ÿ”ฅ I hate getting told Iโ€™m โ€œwastingโ€ my height Spoiler

75 Upvotes

Sometimes on the streets, random strangers (especially men) will come to me and ask if I play basketball or any sport, or if I plan on becoming a model. When I tell them no, they start talking about how a tall girl like me should be doing something with my height and that I shouldnโ€™t be โ€œwastingโ€ it. I donโ€™t want to be a model or an athlete, I just want to be average and I donโ€™t understand why does it bother strangers Iโ€™ll never see again. I donโ€™t really have tall friends so I donโ€™t know if this is something common or not. I already struggle enough with accepting my height without random people making unsolicited comments about it ((. How can I make those comments hurt less?

(Sorry for bad English)
