New Boutique: The Tall Look
It’s always an exciting day to find out there is a new tall retailer on the block! The day still remains a distant dream when tall women are able to easily find clothing made for our bodies. In the meantime, we celebrate and champion the new small businesses in the hopes that they will expand as they’re able to. Such is the case with introducing The Tall Look boutique.
Jennifer recently launched her online shop and we are here for it! They have some really great basics, at some even better price points. The Tall Look is for women who are 5’8 and above and all their garments are tested on ladies taller than that, so you know you’re getting something well fitting!
We’re also super excited that The Tall Look is carrying some new denim options! Right now they only have two styles, and Jennifer was kind enough to send us a pair of each to try out. We can wholeheartedly confirm we love them. Both pairs are 36 inch inseam but my pair is the Kendra straight leg jean, while Caitlin’s is the Molly bootcut jean.
I (Jenilee) wear a 38 inch inseam to the floor. If you haven’t measured your inseam yet but find yourself frustrated by the guessing game of jeans shopping, you should prioritize doing it and writing it down in a note on your phone for easy access. At this point I have mine and Caitlin’s memorized from how often we use it on the blog and for shopping. Caitlin’s inseam is 35 inches to the floor so the bootcut option worked perfectly on her height. In fact, you could measure a couple of ways so if you prefer to wear an ankle jean or if you loath anything shorter than necessary you’ll at least have an idea what inseam works for your needs.
So once you have that figured out, you’re ready to order jeans! Great news, both of these jeans are on sale for under $50!! How amazing is that?! I know we’ve all been rocking skinny jeans a ton in the past years, especially as they get softer and more buttery, but this is the time to step away and buy a pair of seriously polished pair of tall girl denim. There is nothing more timeless than a bootcut or straight leg jean to add to your rotation. They are both a great mid to dark wash so they will go with anything.
We both went with 31 for sizing. The jeans are also ridiculously comfortable and have great stretch to them so you could size down if you’re in between sizes. The straight legs say 10 inch front rise and are called high rise, but they feel closer to a mid rise to me as they are below the belly button. The bootcut are considered mid rise at 8.5 and feels borderline low rise to Caitlin. Reminder that is our personal opinion, we know many women love the mid rise and definitely don’t want jeans above their belly buttons.
So enough singing the praises of these jeans! We’ve long been of the opinion that it is terribly difficult for one tall retailer to fit the needs of all tall women when we’re a completely diverse group of individuals at all ages and sizes. Especially when you’re just launching your company, and have to be selective about the pieces you lead with. The good news is, Jennifer is already carrying some plus sized pieces up to 3X. Check out this versatile swing dress here.We’ve had many conversations with ladies feeling ultra left out, because not only are you tall but adding plus size can make shopping nearly impossible.
So not only does she have the jeans but she has a bunch of really cute tops and tunics as well as dresses available to order. Mostly everything is under $30 which is incredible, as we all know the price tends to rise the smaller the business! Y’all have got to check out The Tall Look if you haven’t yet, because we need to support small businesses we’d like to see more out of! Last thing we’ll mention is that shipping in the US is free over $59 orders so if you order jeans and a top you get free shipping, YAY! She does do international shipping for our tall friends outside of the United States.
