Summer Staples: Womens Tall Shorts and V-Neck Tees

By Beth June 25, 2015

True confessions! I haven’t owned a pair of shorts in years because I’ve gravitated more toward skirts and dresses for the summer. After seeing how fabulous several other tall ladies look in shorts, I’ve decided it’s high time I try to find some for myself.

To ease myself into shorts-wearing, I’ve been keeping an eye out for some long-length shorts that fall just above the knee. These tall walking shorts from Ann Taylor seem perfect because I would be able to dress them up or down. The 98% cotton fabric is ideal for hot summer days and the 2% spandex would add to the comfort and make for a flattering fit.

For a casual look, I paired the shorts with a tall striped v-neck tee. To add a touch of glam, I layered a couple of gold necklaces and finished off the look with a pair of gold sandals and a pretty bracelet. I could see myself running errands in this outfit or meeting up with friends for lunch. For a dressier look, I’d switch out the flat sandals for some high-heeled sandals or wedges and replace the t-shirt with a pretty blouse.

Based on the rave reviews of the shorts and the current sale price, they are a great find!

Mens Size 19 Sandals

By Krista Mayne June 23, 2015

I was looking through some of the search terms here on the site and noticed that I’ve had a few searches for men’s size 19 sandals. So I set out to see if this is a hard size to find and sure enough there aren’t a lot of pairs. In fact, I only found these two:

Under Armour Slides – to size 20, 3 colors

Freewaters Flip-Flops to size 22

I hope there will be more of this size in the future. You may also like our men’s shoe section.

Work it! Tall Tanks for Working Out

By Beth June 18, 2015

In order to tone up for summer, I recently started a 30-day exercise program that involves doing a workout every single day. Yikes! My previous workout routine only involved working out a maximum of 2-3 days per week, and I had more than enough tall activewear to support that schedule. Now that I’m exercising more frequently, I’m on the lookout for fabulous tall activewear to add to my collection. Here are some extra-long workout tanks that have caught my eye.

Moisture-wicking tall racer-back tank (6 colors; Sizes: Small – XXL)

How fun is the print on this tank? Cute workout clothes motivate me to workout and this one will have me hitting the gym in no time.

Floral tall tank (Sizes: XS-XL)

This top is right on trend with its floral print, pop-of-color trim and flattering racer-back style.

Plus-size racer-back tank (Colors: Lilac, Black or White; Sizes: 1x-3x)

While this tank is not tall-sized per se, it is the same length as some of the other tall workout tanks listed in this round-up. I really love the pretty lilac color!

High-neck tall tank (9 colors; Sizes: XS-XL)

I’m always a fan of a high-neck workout top so that I don’t have to worry about keeping everything covered while I’m bending over. Another great
thing about this tank is that it’s two inches longer in the back so you get a little extra coverage for your backside.
