Take Me to Paris

If you haven’t seen Long Tall Sally’s Karl Lagerfeld collection, you need to.  This designer collection is lots of fun.  Today I picked a few items to put together a Paris inspired outfit for Spring. (affiliate links).

Tall Store Spotlight – JCPenney

Today’s tall store spotlight is on JCPenney.  Have you seen their new back to school commercial? I love the tall girl in the commercial. Let’s take a look!

I can totally put myself in the place of the tall girl as I was always taller than the boys. In fact, every year for the school class pictures, I remember the photographer saying – “tall girl right here in the middle” as he stuck me on the top row right smack in the middle of the row.  I just think of it like I was the center of the universe! 🙂

Smart tall girls know they when they get to be teens they can shop at JCPenney as they have a fabulous girls tall shop and their prices are excellent!  Here’s an affordable tall outfit I put together:

Liz Claiborne Tall Denim Pencil Skirt – sale $24.99.  A2 by Aerosoles Wedges sale $24.99.

And for guys their tall shop has substantial and affordable options in casual and dressy tall clothing.

If you are lucky, your local store may sell some tall items in store – probably more for the guys than the gals.  But, the majority of tall clothing items will be found online.
