Tall Plus Size Fashions at SWAK

By Krista Mayne November 6, 2014

I have the most interesting conversations when people hear the name of my website. Today I was talking to my web-host company and the lady on the other line happens to be 5’10” tall woman who wears plus sizes. We had the best conversation and of course we discussed where she shops. One of her favorite places to shop for tall, plus size fashions is at Sealed with a Kiss Designs or SWAK for short.

Hi Low Plus Size Top

She buys a lot of basics there including pants, skirts and cardigans as well as maxi dresses. However she did note that she loves the designs, but wishes that the fabrics were a little thicker as they tend to be a bit thin.

So, I’ve gone through the site and don’t seem any inseam lengths longer than 33″ long. Perhaps some of the leggings may stretch. I don’t know. But, I thought I’d share this resource with you as I know there are many tall, plus sized women looking for additional places to shop.

Have a great day!

Womens Tall Hiking Pant Review

By Krista Mayne November 5, 2014

Submitted via Karen:

If you are tall, you must go to Athleta. They offer an awesome hiking pant in “Tall” called the Shasta Pant.

It comes in a variety of colors and the best part is that the tall inseam on these pants is 35.5 inches. I’m 5’11” and this inseam is perfect. If you are tall, you know how hard it is to find a long enough inseam. But, the length isn’t the only thing that makes these pants great. They have snap down cinches on the bottom of the pants, that allow you to convert the pant to 3 different lengths. They can be dressed up or down. They dry quickly which is great when traveling. Go to Athleta and pick up a pair. You won’t be disappointed.

Thank to Karen for the review, you will now be entered into the contest to receive a $50 gift card. For the month of November 2014, it is a gift card to Gap. Please keep the reviews coming as it helps all of us.
