Tall News

Seriously. I just want to scream to the world how happy I am that more clothing stores are carrying their clothes in TALL sizes. My torso is long and when I try on shirts from places like J. Crew it looks like a (polo) belly shirt from the 90s; it is awful. But now stores (at least online) like Banana Republic, Anthropologie, Old Navy, J.C. Penny, J.Jill, Lands End, carry a tall selection! Although it’s only a few, rather preppy stores, it’s still something! Someone finally realized that ALL women like to shop no matter what their size (and that not everyone has stumps for trunks). I get the fact that it’s not easy for anyone, petite people have it rough too, and so do plus sizers… and everyone else that falls in between, on the sideline, out of the box, or whatever. But nobody has ever cared about the tall people before. So this is big tall! I’ve spent my whole life being too “freakishly tall like a gorilla” to dress very girly and I’m excited about the prospect of having more than just tunics, men’s clothes, and potato sacks in my wardrobe. Yay!
