At Last Tall Denim – A New Love

“At last

My love has come along

My lonely days are over

And life is like a song

Oh, yeah, yeah, at last

The skies above are blue

My heart was wrapped up in clover

The night I looked at you”

Etta James

Okay, okay, I know you all might think I am inane for relating those lyrics to a pair of denim. However, when you are part of the long limbed club you understand that it really, truly, can feel like the clouds cleared up and finally found the blue skies you were looking for (or tall denim). I know we can sound like a broken record in regards to limited options, the fit still being off when it comes to certain brands, and the lack of trendy pieces. Unfortunately that’s because we are still facing this problem on a day to day basis. Enter At Last Tall Denim!

As some of you may have seen on our Instagram story last week we shared again how Poshmark still doesn’t have a tall range filter even though they have petite, plus, and maternity. It blows our mind and makes us so sad that in this world where being inclusive is constantly preached about we are somehow still ostracized. Are there not enough tall women? Seriously, what needs to change to make it more of a norm? 

I will hop off my soapbox and dive head first into this new to the blog brand: At Last Denim. Jenilee and I usually race each other in who can share a new tall brand with the first. Usually we find out via a new page discreetly showing up and following us on Instagram. We then proceed to stalk the new page waiting to see the new goodies in store for us. And then we always feel blessed when we can get in touch with any new brand that aligns with us and create a collaboration to share them with you!

We got in touch with Ashley the founder of At Last Denim to see if our brands aligned for a collaboration and indeed we did. Like me, Ashley is 5’11. She has struggled like all of us to find clothing that fits correctly. At Last Denim is sustainable(!) including skipping tags because they are trash anyways. All of their fabrics come from farms and factories that have adopted sustainable practices. They also practice eco-friendly washing techniques that save 70% of water that is traditionally used in denim manufacturing. They also use waterless bleaching which reduces chemical use by 80%. Lastly, all of their labels are made with organic cotton and the packaging is made from 100% recycled materials. We applaud her for making all of this happen because it’s not easy to start a company (especially a tall denim company), and keep it sustainable. 

When we chatted with Ashley she mentioned that her company has been in the works for over four years. Ironically she picked the name without knowing what a long journey it would be to get this dreamy denim into production. The two of us are so excited that this tall denim is finally on the market. And also so excited to have another small tall company entering the playing field. We are also so thankful she is open to crowdsourcing. So if you have anything you are dying to see feel free to share it because the people wearing this tall denim are the ones who represent this company!

Finally let’s dive into the fit. I went with the No. 1 – Acid Wash found here.  I am wearing the size 29×35. Typically I would be a 33 inch inseam but they were sold out and I needed to have these jeans in my closet ASAP! They still work wonderfully. They have a long torso approved high rise that is 4” higher in the back than the front. I am not exaggerating when I say wearing these feel like leggings because they are so comfortable. They are made with T400 fibers that give you a more durable stretch while still retaining maximum recovery. The raw edge and ripped knees have me swooning. 

When we were first browsing the website I knew immediately which pair I needed. Both of us were laughing because Jenilee called out the exact pair before I could even say it. Sister things. We all know I love a good grunge/edgy look.

I went ahead and styled these a handful of ways to give you a good idea of how many possibilities there are with these jeans!

Look #1/2/3

If you want to go for an edgier look throw on a destroyed or band tee and some combat boots. For a mildly edgy look you can try a turtleneck and blazer also with combat boots.

Look #4

If you are more into the basics you can’t go wrong with AF1s (or any white sneakers) with a plain white tee. Add on a sherpa jacket or shacket to add some warmth for winter. That look will never go out of style!  

Look #5

For another pretty classic look I tossed on a chunky sweater with some snakeskin booties. 

Look #6

And for the most timeless look of them all I went with a button down white blouse and my favorite Coix heels. 

If the combination of all those stylings don’t prove how versatile these jeans are I am not sure what will! I could keep raving about these jeans but I think y’all get the point. Check out Jenilee’s pair, here. As always we encourage you to shop small and support out small business tall retailers. Especially right out of the door so they can continue to expand for us.

    What a fabulous review and it’s great to see the acid wash in action since I’ve been debating about getting them. Love that you showed how versatile they are.
