This band-collar shirt from J. Jill comes in tall sizes at 27″ long. It has 3/4 length sleeves, pearlized buttons, and a notched band collar. To top it all off, it’s machine washable. And nearly half off. But hurry over, some sizes are selling out quickly.

I can’t put my finger on it, but there is just something I love about square neck tops. They are hard to find in tall sizes though. This one is not tall-sized, but is from Shade Clothing, whose tops are notoriously long. It has vintage crochet trim around the neckline, and the shoulders are a bit gathered. Available in three colors.

I’ll admit, I usually don’t. With two food-slingers under the age of four, I generally stick with low maintenance tops. Ok, low maintenance everything. But if you can pull off silk, this is a great blouse for evening or the office. Because it comes in tall sizes, the wrap around waistband may actually hit you at the waist instead of the ribs. Not for the faint of heart though, this blouse is 100% sillk and dry clean only.

I so want to be a $30-50 jeans girl. But with a 36″ inseam, it’s usually not going to happen. I’m not willing to pay $150-200 for ‘designer’ jeans. But The Buckle offers a happy medium. You can find a decent pair for $60-80, and inseams go up to 37″. Their website is fantastic. You can shop by inseam, waist, rise, fit, & more. This saves time, and narrows your options quickly, especially if you know what you’re looking for. It keeps me from getting excited to find a 36″ long pair of jeans, only to find that they have a super lowrise that accentuates my spackle crack. My thrifty side has finally caved, and decided it’s better to have a couple $75 pairs of jeans that fit great, than to have 5-6 cheap pairs that don’t.

This pleated shirt is screaming spring to me- especially in white. Pair it with a pair of capris or a skirt for play, or under a sweater or blazer for work. The fabric has a subtle textured pattern, and cute puff sleeves, with banded cuffs and pleated trim. Available in tall sizes, navy and white.

Finally, they’re making shorts long enough to cover these long thighs! These cute plaid bermuda shorts have a low rise, and flap pockets in back. They have a long 17″ inseam, and can be dressed up or down.

Ok I admit it, I’m a t-shirt slob. But wearing one like this would make me feel less guilty. It’s feminine, flattering, and tall-sized! You get the look of something fancier, with the comfort of a tee. Available in Aqua or White.

The Wonder Tee by Downeast Basics is a great staple for any wardrobe. It comes in many colors, and while it is not tall-sized, it runs very long. Flat tummy? Wear it alone. Have a mama-roll? It’s great for layering. At this price, I may get a few different colors.

The return of capris may have been the best thing that happened to tall women in the past 15 years. They’re not tall-sized, but they often do the trick. Love capris or not, they are better than high-water pants, or too-short shorts. We have a bit more flexibility with where capris hit our long calves. This style has a mid-rise waist, and a removable tie-front belt.

These are not advertisements, just stores I've found online that cater to the vertically blessed!
Tall girls often have a larger foot size that local shops don't cater to. Here's a list of places you can find wider, larger shoe sizes.
