Buy online: Dorothy Perkins
Price: £12.00 (about $24.00)

Tall Moms website update

December 29, 2007

If you’re reading through your feed reader, click on through and check out the loads of links for tall shopping in the right hand sidebar. I’ve listed U.S. shops, and the international shops I know of, as well as a section for larger than average shoes.

If you’ve got any tall women’s clothing stores you don’t see listed, give me a holler and I’ll add the link.

I’m also playing with the idea of a tall moms (or tall women / girls) blogroll. Any takers?


Black Jean Jacket

Jean Jacket for tall womenHow many times have you tried on a cute jean jacket only to discover the sleeves are too short? Or maybe you went ahead and bought it and keep rolling the sleeves up hoping a 3/4 sleeve on a jean jacket looks jaunty?

Yes, I just used the word jaunty. Well, here’s a jean jacket with long enough sleeves just for you. Cute black denim with some stretch for comfort! Scroll down a bit, the site needs an e-commerce overhaul.

Buy online: Tall Etc.
Price: $108.00


U-Neck T-Shirt

Round Belly Custom

Round Belly offers many tall sizes in their nursing wear and maternity clothing options. You can also custom order any of their pieces made specifically to fit you.

A customer recommends the Wrap maternity shirt, specifically. Thanks Allison!


The Classic White Shirt

December 19, 2007

white shirt tall sizeOkay, I know, I know, you put on a white shirt, and your toddler immediately gives you a peanut butter hug. So save this one for the rare occasion when you actually have somewhere to go. The short sleeves mean less bulk if you layer it under a cardigan and the cute rounded collar means you won’t end up looking like you’re going to a John Travolta disco party. Not that I’d mind going to a disco party, mind you.

Price: On sale for $39.99
Buy Online: Banana Republic


Gypsy Dress

December 18, 2007

Shabby Apple DressAre you tired of layering camisoles, tanks, and tees underneath your clothing to make up for the poor fit? Shabby Apple’s mission is to create clothes that don’t need extra parts and pieces to ensure you feel comfortable and covered.

The longer lengths make them ideal for the vertically blessed. We like this Gypsy dress for its style and sophisticated simplicity. Dress it up or dress it down.

Price: $68.00
