Don't Make Mustard Hard - The Real Tall

What an odd week it’s been. Daylight Savings happening, along with Instagram/Facebook conveniently crashing. Which hopefully isn’t code for hackers. But so far so good on our end, back to normal programming on our end. Maybe it went down so we could all catch up on our sleep to acclimate from our missed hour. Personally, I don’t have a problem with scrolling before I go to bed. I prefer to read a book and get away from the screen. However, I’m bad about clearing my notifications in the morning when my alarm goes off. That’s definitely something I need to work on! I’m not a morning person, so I’ll spend 10 minutes groggily scrolling and wasting time.

Luckily with the outage, we post almost everything here on our blog as well! The only thing that we tried to share on Facebook yesterday was a mainline bodysuit win. I tried on this bodysuit at the mall and was astounded that it fit and was true to size. So of course we had to share it with y’all. Plus the pot was sweetened with it being 40% off as well and three different colors, including this striped option and this floral option.

We got a few DM’s asking if the white was sheer, and it was a thick enough fabric that I wouldn’t worry about seeing through it. Obviously don’t wear a wild colored bra underneath though haha. (Also, if you don’t follow on Facebook, that’s where it’s easiest to post sale links right now because we don’t have the swipe up option on Instagram. So go give us a follow if you’re interested in those!)

We’re still working on getting better at doing pictures or videos of in store try-on sessions. If anyone has a specific store that we have in our area, let us know and we’ll try to test it out! In the meantime, take my word that the bodysuit fit my 6’4 frame with ease. The other tops I ended up buying were these mock neck tanks in the plumberry and white. We’ve mentioned before, a lot of their blouses are longer in the body and work well for tall women. The caveat being, only the short sleeves or ¾ sleeve options.

But enough of mainline options for now. Today we have a perfect tall girl sweater. We are very into mustard, and it’s all due to our mom’s love of the hue. If you saw our Instagram story a month or so again about a Nordstrom Rack mainline bodysuit win, we also got that for our mom in Mustard! She always looks incredible when she wears it, and of course we want to emulate that. I last wore this incredible mustard dress of hers here, and then last summer I wore this mustard tank here. Despite the fact that she and Caitlin are more olive skin toned, I think I’m still able to pull it off.

When Caitlin ordered this sweater, she was relieved to find that the sleeves were a great length. The body of the sweater is also not overly long, which makes it great for most mid rise and all high rise jeans/work pants. Y’all know we’re always searching for those versatile pieces and this sweater definitely fits the bill. A great crew neck top, and some drama on the sleeves.

She paired it with her favorite Madewell dark wash jeans and some amazingly beautiful leopard booties from Long Tall Sally-stay tuned for a LTS shoe round up in the near future. She mentioned that next time she wears it she thinks she will add in her favorite Gap flare jeans and a head scarf for a bit of a retro look, how fun!

Here was the best surprise. We want to try to show you the difference in fit between her and I as much as possible going forward. I was happy to see the sleeves were just as awesome of a length on me as well!

Y’all if you made it to the end, we have good news. This sweater and everything else on asos is currently 20% off with code LUCKYME. I know we’ll be shopping this sale, as we’ve been impatiently waiting for a good discount to happen. We’ve added an extra widget below with our favorite finds, snag them before they sell out!
