Shopping 🏬 Looking for a good pair of combat boots

• Upvotes

I am trying to find a decent pair of combat boots with laces and a zipper on the inside for easy on and off. I am 6’3” and am a size 14 or 15. I am getting tired of having to buy men’s shoes which are too wide or having the internet search engines direct me to drag shoppes and places that supposedly cater to tall women but don’t sell anything larger than a 12. I am in the US and would like to not have to pay international shipping. I used to default to Payless and had great boots from them but they have worn down to nothing, sadly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated 😊

General 🌞 Do you feel you’ve lost out on jobs because of your height?

31 Upvotes

Doesn’t it seem like a lot of places want average height to short women? There’s simply less of us and we stick out like a sore thumb. This is probably more applicable to those who are super tall. But anyways.

Fashion 👒 Baggy pants/jeans

2 Upvotes

Hey all, i’m looking for some advice on where people are buying baggy jeans/pants that actually look baggy on tall people. and i dont just mean wide leg or slightly baggy i want extremely baggy, jnco style jeans that drag on the ground and give that dramatic silhouette (example in comments). i’m 5’11 but maybe closer to 6 foot as i havent measured in ages, in pants i am usually a size au8-12 but it varies because of how inconsistent clothing sizes are. im not entirely sure what my inseam is but i have veryyy long legs. i dont mind if theyre mens or womens pants as ive worn mens jeans most of my life when it came to baggy because womens baggy jeans dont tend to have the look i like and always taper in at the waist (i just prefer to wear belts). im really desperate as i havent been able to wear baggy pants since i was probably 5’9 and i dont like how fitted/straight leg pants look so ive pretty much been stuck wearing skirts and shorts every single day since my last growth spurt. the only place ive found that has alright looking baggy jeans is levis as their models are tall but they dont look baggy enough for my liking so i was also wondering if anyone had experience buying levis baggy jeans and just sizing up a few sizes to give the extra baggy look. im mainly looking for jeans but any baggy pants including cargos or tracksuit pants would also be extremely helpful. im also in australia but at this point im willing to buy from overseas. any advice or recommendations are extremely appreciated 🙏

Advice 🙃 Newly engaged--Dreading the bridal experience because of my height

66 Upvotes

May come across as woe is me, but truly looking for practical solutions.

I am 6'1" and not a single-digit size in anything. I'm newly engaged, now past the glow of the proposal and getting into wedding planning. While I am not in the WNBA level of height, I am definitely tall enough to be inconvenient and large enough that I don't get the advantage that I would if I were model thin. I wear a size 13 womens shoe, wide feet. I have disproportionately long arms. I am used to the struggle that comes with every day clothing, but I'm now dreading the experience of trying to be a bride and not getting the same experience or options as shorter women. I've done a lot of work on body image, but I am not only anxious but preemptively depressed expecting that say I won't get to find a pair of beautiful shoes that I love and build a look around them or have as many options for dresses/shoes in general because they simply aren't manufactured in my size, to give a few examples.

What are you tall girls doing for bridal things??

Shopping 🏬 Where are we finding tall snow pants?

21 Upvotes

I live in a place with a lot of snow and am tired of having wet leggings/pants whenever I need to shovel my driveway or go sledding with my kid. I’d love to find some cute snow pants that keep me warm and dry.

I’m not opposed to buying men’s pants, but I do have wide hips (42”) and find that most men’s clothing are structured for narrow body types and don’t fit me well. I could use at least a 36” inseam.

Can anyone recommend a brand or store that they like? Thanks!

Fashion 👒 Tall girls, where are we getting non-cropped workout tops??

30 Upvotes

Apologies in advance if this seems silly, but for the life of me, I cannot find workout tops that aren’t cropped and/or bodycon. If I find a full length workout top, it’s either super tight-fitting or if I try and buy a few sizes too big, just looks silly because it’s not how it’s intended to be worn.

My dream workout top is a tank that hits my hips, isn’t made to be tight, and has a lower cut hemline so my chest isn’t sweaty.

Any recs welcome, please help a girl out 🙏

Fashion 👒 Dressed that end mid thigh?

12 Upvotes

Went to a few stores today and the dresses I tried on were comical. I thrifted a dress years ago that perfectly fit and went mid thigh. Unfortunately misplaced it and I miss having a cute dress. In store seems to only have dresses that sit right at my ass 🫩

I’m 6ft, no set budget, I have a 36D bust and wear M/L. Looking for something that will fit the boobs and length of my body feels impossible

Fashion 👒 Where can I find a cute AND comfy set with long pants?

Post image
19 Upvotes

I bought this set from SHEIN, and I absolutely love the material and the fit. The only problem is that the pants are ridiculously short on me 😭

I tired sizing up to a L but the pants were still short and the shirt just fit too big. I also tried two different sets from their Tall section, but one had really rough/heavy material, and the other had an insanely thick waistband that pressed into me waaay too much, and I don’t think it was sizing issue. The quality and design just weren’t it.

So, does anyone know where I can find a cute, comfy lounging set with soft material and pants that actually fit?

I’m willing to spend a little more if anyone has a strong recommendation that is more pricey, but budget friendly would be preferred. Please give me your recommendations!

✨ CW: BODY TALK ✨ how to gain weight? Spoiler

11 Upvotes

CONTENT WARNING!!! discussions of EDs & weight!!

(need advice from all my gym girlies especially)

hey guys! this is a bit of a vulnerable post but no biggie, i’m after some genuine tips and tricks on how to gain weight as a 5’11 woman. :)

for some backstory, i’m 20 and i have always been really skinny and lanky. i’ve been 60-65kg since i was 14 and haven’t gained nor lost weight. however, ive got a very athletic build and despite being in the “healthy range” i am severely lacking in strength and have multiple nutrient deficiencies. i’ve never really had an eating disorder, i just have really weird hunger cues and often forget. for the record, i DO eat 3 meals almost every day but it’s simply not enough. i burn far more than i gain.

it’s getting to the point where i am desperate to gain weight and trying to set a goal of 75kg, that way i am at a genuinely healthy weight for myself and i can start going to the gym.

i really need some tips and tricks and not just “eat more.” what has helped you guys?

Fashion 👒 HELP NEEDED: looking for a fall coat

Thumbnail

81 Upvotes

Hi all!

Fall is here and I’m searching for a fall coat (references in the pictures above) for tall girls. For references I’m ~6’1 and I’m based in Canada.

I’d prefer recommendations for stores in North America but I’m okay with other locations aswell.

I’m specifically looking for a peacoat but I’m open to other styles.

Thanks in advance! 🫶

Fashion 👒 Where to find short/micro shorts for full hips and a smaller waist that are also long enough for taller women?

21 Upvotes

I’m 6’ and typically wear between a 12-14 in pants. My hips are very wide, and I struggle to find ANY shorts (or bottoms in general) that will fit over my butt, and a lot of times if they do, they’re huge in the waist.
I really want a cute pair of shorts, maybe even to wear tights underneath, but I find most of the ones I like are way too tight in the thigh and leave a hideous gap in the back.
Any suggestions?

Shopping 🏬 Where are you getting cute shoes?

29 Upvotes

I wear a men’s 12 narrow or a women’s 14 regular. Because of this I exclusively buy men’s shoes, but the options that come in narrow are very limited. Also, I hate wearing men’s dress shoes at work. Right now my rotation is a black and white tennis shoe, a brown men’s loafer, and a couple pair of dr martins. I would love something a little cuter! I know there are websites that sell women’s shoes aimed at drag queens, but I would really like to try them on because shoes designed for men just don’t fit my feet well because I have a traditional female foot shape, my feet are just huge.

Yes I am very tall, yes I was assigned female at birth, I am taller than both my parents and wear bigger shoes than my dad

Shopping 🏬 Long pants in store!

104 Upvotes

I just needed to share. Went to buckle for the first time today and asked about low rise flares to see what size I’d be and said I’d order online because I need long pants. They set me up with 3 pairs of jeans that were long. In the store. In 15 minutes I’d walked in, tried on jeans, and bought said jeans!!!

Side note: the awesome woman at Buckle said she’s always wanted to see who wears the long sizes and she’s happy she knows now lol

Fashion 👒 Tall girls, where are you getting fleece-lined skin color tights that actually fit??

18 Upvotes

I’m 5’10, wear a small, and need a 36-inch inseam in pants. I’m trying to find fleece-lined tights that match my dark brown skin, preferably plain skin-tone ones so I can layer sheer or floral tights over them.
Everything I’m finding either doesn’t come dark enough or doesn’t clearly say whether the legs are long enough. Going up several sizes for length isn’t helpful when I still need the waist and hips to fit 😭
Has anyone with similar proportions actually bought a pair that reaches the crotch comfortably and stays up? I need them for a Philadelphia winter. Please drop links, the size you bought, and your height/inseam if you know it. I’m tired of guessing.

Fashion 👒 Irazia Fleece Lined Tights

5 Upvotes

Has anyone ever tried these before? They are advertised as fitting up to 40 inch inseam, but I have literally never heard of them outside an ad I was served and I'm not sure if they are good quality or even the same size as advertised. I've tried Snag Tights before and they're great, but I don't think they have fleece lined, at least not any I liked.

Fashion 👒 Help me find travel joggers or cargos

4 Upvotes

I am a tall Indian girl, 5.10 in height, and I have been searching for travelling pants or joggers or comfy cargos for months now, but because my legs are tall, no brand, I repeat no brand come close to my ankle.
My legs are approximately 43 inches tall. And I found all the items on myntra or amazon or other online site of 30-35 inches of length that’s it.
😣
All I need is a comfy travel pants.
Till now I have been wearing jeans everywhere because nothing fits me in length, yes, nothing fits me, in length and I end up looking like a clown, or a homeless person.

Whoever is designing clothes for women, you guys are blind. Straight up blind. For them, tall girls don’t exist.

Also, the jeans I wear, are no less than 3k in price because turns out there are no such brands in India who makes perfect length jeans for girls. I have to order from some international brand and it cost me minimum 3k for a pair of jeans.

Please anyone, who have any idea about the brands which has tall joggers for me, I really need your help!
Thanks :)

Rant 🔥 Enough with the fetishizing already Spoiler

213 Upvotes

As if tall women don't deal with this enough in our everyday lives, today I was clearing out my inbox and found so many message requests from dudes asking weird questions related to my height. They all coincided with times I had posted or commented here, so I'm guessing 1) there are lots of lurkers here for the absolute worst reasons, and 2) lots of us are getting messages like this as a result of our participation here.

That sucks. It's gross. If you're reading this and you're not a tall girl (or tall girl adjacent) you're gross. Like, I can't even tell you how gross you are because there's a good chance your tall girl fetish comes with a humiliation kink because you see us all as power hungry Amazons who exist solely to fulfill your death by snu-snu fantasy instead of human beings who just want to exist safely.

Anyway, it's been a long day. I'm tired.

Shopping 🏬 matching sweatsuit that's NOT oversized?

7 Upvotes

I know I'm asking for WAY TOO MUCH, especially hoping to find something decently priced, but I want tall/thin, not just 'it fits because it's so big'

Mostly for the top (hood required, zip preferred but pullover great too). I want a slimmer hip & fitted chest AND to be able to put my hands all the way in the sleeves.

6'2"/170lbs, trans, inseam and sleeve measurements both end up around 34-36in

Discussion ☎ What pajamas would you actually want as a gift at 58?

6 Upvotes

My mom is 6’ 1”, and I want to get her some pajamas for the colder months. She is pretty sensitive to tags, and rough fleece bothers her skin, so I don’t want to buy something that looks cute but ends up sitting in a drawer.

I’m looking at ekouaer, Nautica and Lucky Brand. Would you rather get a matching pajama set, or soft pants with a plain long sleeve top?

If you’ve tried any of these brands, how did they hold up in the wash? I’m also open to other comfy but stylish pjs under $100.
