fashion advice for real people

As a tall girl myself at 5′10″, I understand firsthand just how difficult it can be to find pants that fit. We all hear about the shorter women who have problems finding the right size pants but at least they can get theirs tailored, whereas we tall girls are left looking like we are waiting for a flood!
I used to find myself shopping around from store to store trying to find pants that were long enough for my legs, and more often than not would end up frustrated, with no luck.
I know a lot of other women as well who are taller than average and who deal with the same problem, and this combined with the simple fact that I would like to know where I can go and find pants that are going to fit and look great, made me decide to do some research.
One of the best companies I have found to date is Alloy. They offer pants with inseams up to 37″ which includes even women who are over six feet tall.
I especially love their denim collection, which features all the most popular styles of jean including wide leg, flare, skinny, destroyed, new washes and treatments, and even crops and capris.
They are only available online which is unfortunate because then you are not able to visit an actual retail store to try on the pants first, but I have ordered many times from this company and trust me, you will not be returning or exchanging anything.
Not only do they offer an incredible selection of jeans but also pants, hoodies, tops, dresses, shorts, skirts, accessories, swimwear, and more.
Gap is another clothing retailer that offers pants in extended sizes. Their women’s apparel is actually divided into two specific categories: petite and tall, to make the shopping experience as easy for you as possible.
Their pants are available in five different sizes of inseam ranging from 29-36 inches long. Another thing I love about the Gap is that they have different styles of jeans listed including boot cut, curvy, straight, and fashion denim, which makes it easier to choose just the right pair of jeans for every occasion.
The pants are also actually affordable which is often hard to find when you are shopping for a specialty item, which apparently extra-long inseams are.
I love how comfortable these pants fit and how they keep their shape even after washing and drying them. It’s great knowing that whenever I want a pair of cute new pants I can head here and find a great selection.
One of my favorite stores of all time, Victoria’s Secret, is the third to make my list here. Not only do they have a gorgeous line of lingerie and swimwear, but as well apparel including pants with extra-long inseams.
They have a great selection of pants for both work and play, and they too are very affordable which is important to me because I simply cannot reason with paying hundreds of dollars for a single pair of jeans.
If you are not already aware, they offer the VS Uplift pants, which feature a built-in powerful mesh panel that lifts from the inside but which is invisible from the outside. This gives the ole tush a little lift, which no woman can complain about.
I have found a few other stores that cater to tall women and which I have visited a few times, but these are definitely three of my favorite. If you are a tall girl like I am who is looking for a pair of pants with a great fit, I am sure you will have success at any one of these places.
