A lot of you might already be perusing Lululemon’s site, knowing you can find certain items that will fit. For those of you that didn’t already know this, we’re here to help you shop Lululemon tall clothing! We also will hopefully shed light on a few new key items to check out as well. Check out our original post on Lululemon here, and also for a few funny pictures to giggle at!

Align Legging

Our top pick would have to be the align leggings. They are available in 31 inch inseam, which works wonderfully for my 38 inch to the floor inseam. The Aligns are our most worn casual leggings. We grab for them first when traveling, and also on errand days when you want to look put together without actually involving effort. For sizing reference, I normally wear 10/12 in bottoms and size 8 is my go-to for the Aligns. Definitely size down maybe two sizes, these have A LOT of stretch. The 31″ inseam is golden for our Lululemon tall clothing needs.

Wunder Under Leggings

The Wunder Under are the first pair of leggings I bought when I won a giftcard. I also need to mention that I wore these leggings throughout my pregnancy and was resigned to them not being wearable after, but the spandex in them recovered! That pair is like 5 years old. They are super pants and worth the “investment.”  

Scuba Hoodie

Along the same lines of the Align leggings, this hoodie is the way to go to update your sweats collection. That is an ongoing discussion amongst friends/family. At what point is it socially unacceptable to go out in public wearing grungy sweats? The limit does not exist! (jk I wanted to make a Mean Girls reference). At some point you don’t want people to catch you out looking like a slob. This sweatshirt is it, for me. I’ve always been a hoodie lover and in college you could catch me slinking around campus with my hood up all the time. The Scuba hoodie is my grown-up option. I have it in red and wear it to/from the gym and also out and about! The sleeves offer an extremely generous length that allow for us tall girls to wear our thumb holes too!

Track That Mid-Rise Lined Shorts 5’

Our athletic thighs fit perfectly in these shorts, which doesn’t happen often! Plus the inseam hits the sweet spot at 5 inches. Honorable mention goes to the wide elastic waistband which lays very comfortably. The only possible thing to improve on this design would be to make them high waisted. But hey, if that’s all we have to settle on, then we’re quite happy! You’re going to want to keep a close watch on these shorts though, because they have a habit of selling out VERY quickly. We are wearing a size 12, so a size up from normal and two sizes up from our lulu leggings.

Swiftly Tech Long Sleeve Shirt 2.0

This long sleeve is one of our initial loves from Lululemon. It’s a great athletic fabric that we like to wear during warm ups in the cooler months. It has the thumbholes if you’re wearing outdoors whether it be running or hiking. The body length is great and goes well over our hips. We have bought both 10 and 12. I don’t think there is enough noticeable difference so go with your regular size! Also, we’ve tried the Swiftly Tech race length if you don’t need or prefer the extra body length. I think the sleeves are a bit shorter on that version, just worth noting. Still a great length on Caitlin at 5’11 but not quite there for me at 6’4. It is worth noting that the swiftly tech tank tops are equally as wonderful and the same review goes for the race length. 

Define Jacket

This jacket is super figure flattering, and another piece of Lululemon’s we reach for in the airport regularly. It also has the thumbholes, which still reach long enough for us to actually put to use. I bought this jacket in a size 12. The size 12 gives it a little bit of extra shoulder room for me. It hugs close to the body for a nice fitted look. It is supposed to hit at the hip, but for me, it ends right above the hip. There are so many great color options so your only problem will be narrowing down your favorite! We both have it in several colors and also love to wear to and from the gym!

Align High Rise Biker Shorts

Our Mom (who is 6’2) swears by these biker shorts for running. She is partial to the Bermuda length (10 inches) but they are also available in 6 or 8 inch length. They stay put while running and are the same lightweight align fabric as the leggings!

Energy Longline Bra

We know you don’t necessarily need a sports bra to come in tall but also yes you kind of do. These offer the right shoulder to underbust fit and the long line adds in some next length if you want to wear just a sports bra with leggings without showing too much off. It offers great support and coverage for Caitlin’s fuller C cup. 

Ebb to Street Tank 

Another tank that offers a little bit of a different feel than the swiftly tech. It typically is offered with a ribbed texture and all the extra length in the bottom. This one also comes with a built in shelf bra so if you are good with light support you can skip the bra!

Fast and Free High Rise

These are also an easy favorite for Caitlin. The material is buttery soft yet thick and compressed enough to keep you feeling held in. Most of them also offer pockets which you know we love. They are perfect for all of our boot camp needs. These workout tights come in 28 length, which as mentioned above still hits at ankle length for Jenilee at 6’4.

Pack it Down Jacket and Vest

Caitlin has both of these. The Vest body length is good for both of us. The jacket, I can’t speak to the length working for 6’4 but Caitlin has long arms so it might work if you’re under 6’4!

Down For it All Jacket

MEN’S OPTIONS

The Commission Pant

If you have tall men in your life that you care anything about, these are the work pants they NEED. They come in a 37 inch inseam and are professional looking, while still maintaining a ridiculous comfort level. My husband, our Dad, and our brother absolutely love these pants and would wear ONLY them going forward to work.

Commission Shorts

Also available in multiple inseams, with the same comfortable fit as the pants. The beauty of this material lies in it’s ability to make you look business appropriate while maintaining an unheard of level of comfort (as if you were in loungewear).

ABC Pants

The ABC pants are designed to replace your jeans, so if you’re looking for a more casual pant these are also up to 37 inseam and just as comfortable. For anyone unfamiliar ABC stands for “anti ball crushing.” LOL

Mens Polos 

Our 6’8 brother loves their polos, and the body length works well on him. They are breathable, which is a must for him!

City Sweat Jogger in Tall

Both Caitlin and our Dad have these (men’s) joggers. They have several inseam lengths, up to 32″. Don’t let the mens description deter you, they still fit great for women!

License to Train Jogger

These joggers don’t have an actual inseam on them but in the product description they are designed to fit above the ankle for 32-34 inch inseam.

Happy Shopping!

In summary, we hope this guide will help you shop Lululemon tall clothing with ease! Whether you are shopping lululemon tall clothing for yourself or any tall men in your life, they have options that we have tried and tested for years now! Bookmark this post to come back to later for reference!

2021 has been a year full of.. A year. LOL. I think we can all agree that we didn’t envision this extending on as long as it has. However, 2021 brought me my biggest joy. The birth of Wesley, so it wasn’t all bad! We’re hopeful you had bright spots and moments throughout the year as well and encourage you to try to reflect on those as the year ends. 2021 definitely brought me less consistency to the blog. I know there are people still out there reading it and we hope that it helps you in some small way. That was and is our intent!

Another exciting thing 2021 brought us was becoming Amalli Talli ambassadors. As longtime fans of their quality clothing, it was all too easy to say yes to an official partnership. We especially loved being able to share items AND a discount code to you. Our partnership is coming to a close for now, and we wanted to highlight some of our favorite pieces in case you’re after Christmas shopping and can use the code one last time before it goes away.

Moto Jacket – Black and Wine

One of our most reached for pieces. You aren’t going to find a better fitting, more comfortable jacket than this. It is ideal for everything! Most of all because it is sweatshirt material, but makes you look tailored and chic. Some sort of sorcery involved in the making of this jacket, I swear! We both wear a size large in this jacket. Amalli also released a deep red version that would be a perfect addition to your closet as well!

Shacket – Multi Plaid, Solid Grey, and Red Plaid

Another layering piece that we have integrated seamlessly into our wardrobes is Amalli’s shacket. They have two (almost sold out!!) plaid options and also just released a solid gray that we are just on the cusp of purchasing. With the Midwest weather, it’s something you can easily grab for cold mornings and again know that you’ll have that tailored look instead of a bulkier men’s version! Also wear size large in these shackets, which seems to be our go-to for their outerwear.

Plaid Blazer

If you’re anything like us, you’re constantly on the hunt for tall blazers. Look no further for the perfect plaid addition! We’re typically hesitant about blazers because we constantly have to compromise sizing with our broader shoulders. Not the case thankfully with this blazer. Caitlin has it in large and it feels perfectly comfortable. Plus it’s another piece you can wear casually or professionally!

Sunchaser Cardigan

Are you sensing a theme yet? It’s layering season in the Midwest. We’re just trying our best to stay warm, y’all! Caitlin bought this cardigan, and it is the perfect piece to match both the mustard turtleneck sweater AND the mustard ribbed long sleeve (which already are in her closet). Caitlin got this cardigan in a size medium and it has a nice fitted look.And of course comes with their signature long sleeves.

Ribbed Long Sleeves, Dusty Rose, Mustard, Hunter Green, Burnt Orange

That brings us to the under layering pieces, and these definitely top our list. They are made of a nice thick material, which also has some nice spandex stretch to it to keep it fitted well. There are a plethora of great color options, so something for everyone’s preference. Our pro tip is find the colors you love and buy them instead of picking different colors for variety’s sake. You will end up always reaching for your preferred colors, plus it makes your closet much more cohesive for putting together outfits! We both wear medium in the ribbed long sleeves. We have dusty rose, mustard, hunter green, and burnt orange.

Ribbed Mockneck Long Sleeve – Black and Dark Mauve

If you’re like us, the more body parts covered in the Winter, the better. This ribbed version just adds the mockneck. We would say, it fits a bit tighter than the regular long sleeve and feels less stretchy. Still stick with your regular size, unless you’re looking for a looser fit and then you *could* size up. We both wear size medium in the mockneck.

Smocked Sleeve Top

We also both have this in several colors and luckily Amalli Talli decided to restock the black so more ladies could get their hands on this perfect top. It has the perfect fit in size medium for us and the sleeve detail is everything we look for! I only linked black above but there are a few left in the wine and white!

V Neck, Crew Neck, and Turtleneck Sweaters

Depending on your neckline preference, Amalli Talli has you covered with all! We like a good crew neck but are drawn to the v neck in this soft sweater style. My sensitive skin loves that this sweater has no wool content in it and that it is lightweight and therefore can be easily layered! We both wear a medium in this sweater and it is an easy looser fit. I have the berry color and it is an amazing vibrant sweater for those dreary winter days. The mustard turtleneck is also one of our favorite colors!

SALE SECTION

If you haven’t been paying attention, you might have missed some great Amalli Talli items that are marked down to either sale or final sale!

Camo leggings

We both have these tall leggings, because CAMO and they are a great crossover, meaning you could wear to workout but also as athleisure (which is our preference).

Tall Tweed Jacket

Another great tall jacket from Amalli Talli and this one is also perfect for your workwear needs! I have this in size large and also love that there are plenty of colors to mix and match. 

Brighton Sweater Dress

A truly beautiful vibrant sweater dress, you won’t find a better fitting option than this sweater dress! Caitlin has it in size large and it lays really nicely.

Linen Shorts in Natural or Sage

Honorable mention to these shorts because we don’t technically have this iteration, but we have the linen shorts from the year prior and they are great. A good length on our legs to feel comfortable and confident and a nice lightweight fabric!

We could go on and on about everything you need in your closet, but we have plenty of other Amalli Talli posts waxing on about it for you to reference as well. Legitimately we could recommend most of the products with ease, which again made this ambassadorship very easy to say yes to! All you really need to know is use the code THEREALTALL10 for 10% off your purchase and rest assured you’ll be happy with whatever you buy. Lastly, always happy to answer any questions discussing fit if you’re concerned! 

Happiest of New Years to you all!

It still feels slightly strange to be shopping, as life has morphed so much over the last almost 2 years (insert emoji holding face in horror here). The gradual shift to what we need and now even want is still happening. I thought there would be a cap on the amount of workout clothing and athleisure I’d want to buy but I haven’t found the limit yet! So with that in mind, we just want to talk about what we’ve been buying lately. Apparently, we have been shopping Gap a lot and have a lot of Gap tall favorites! Also, holiday shopping is upon us so keep these in mine for gift inspiration!

I wish I could blame the baby, but I am terrible about spills without him. Instead, I’ll pivot and blame trying to multitask eating while pumping during the work day. The amount of times I’ve stained my clothing is no joking matter. Looking on the bright side, I’ve upgraded some workout wear (since that’s all I wear during my WFH days). Check out our Gap tall favorites below!

ATHLEISURE

Matching Waffle Knit Sweat Suit – Hoodie, Joggers

Caitlin bought this matching sweatsuit last year on major sale and has been loving it! We love to show you how clothing fits on both of us and I’m super pleased to show that it still works well on my 6’4 frame. I’m wearing her set in size medium tall. Be forewarned that it is a shorter cut to the hoodie so don’t expect it to cover your hips. However, the joggers are high rise so there is no skin showing. Luckily they brought the sweat suit back in some additional great colors. Guess who had to have one for herself? 

Vintage Soft Crewneck Sweatshirt

We have a penchant for buying Gap items on deep clearance and this sweatshirt is no exception. We bought the balloon sleeve version of last year, which is now sold out. But this year’s version has so many yummy colors and the length of these is perfect for a slouchy laid back weekend look. Plus the inside fabric lives up to the name and is like wearing a hug.

WORKOUT CLOTHING

Sky High Rise ⅞ Leggings

I have to say it. These are my new favorite workout leggings. Gap has so many fun patterns and the fit of these are like butter. I prefer my workout leggings to go above my belly button comfortably and these easily do. Plus they don’t move around when I’m doing burpy after burpy (looking at you Burn Boot Camp). I wear a size medium tall, and the inseam works quite perfectly. 

High Rise Blackout Full Length Leggings

Another thing that Gap does super well? Make sure you aren’t showing off your underwear during all of the inevitable movement of a workout. Right now they only have black, but as these are a customer favorite, I’m sure it’s only a matter of time before they restock more colors. I have a pale pink leopard pair and a tiger print. 

In comparison with the above Sky High Rise ⅞ leggings, I’ve found that there is a bit more compression associated with this pair. Other than that there is minimal difference beyond a miniscule lower rise.

High Rise Print Pocket ⅞ Leggings in Sculpt Revolution

Of the three I tried, I like these the least and probably shouldn’t have kept the pair I did. It’s not to say they are bad leggings, it’s just a fit preference. If you look at the product page you can see the waistband panel is cut differently to lie flat and suck you in. That’s all well and good but I think I would like them more if they were sky high rise and sat up higher on my waist. Plus they don’t have a tie cord on the inside of the waistband, like the others which I missed. Other than that the fit is the same, so if you find that you like more compression then these leggings will suit you well. Also wearing medium tall in these leggings.

Breathe Halter Tank Top

I found this tank top returned in store when we were shopping at Mall of America. The length is great for me and I like that it skims over the body while still giving a shape. I wear a medium tall and it is definitely true to size! They also have an option with a built in bra available here if you like all in one tank tops. I recently tried one of Old Navy’s versions and was very surprised how much I like it. Plus it makes one less thing to remember in my gym bag!

LAYERING BASICS

Modern Crewneck T-Shirt

I bought a couple of colors of these long sleeves last year in red and olive green and the length on them is great. They are a nice weight for winter but not too heavy so you can easily layer them. If you’re more partial to a V neck long sleeve, fear not! They also have them here. 

Featherweight Funnel-Neck T-Shirt

We both got this funnel-neck t-shirt as well last year. I wouldn’t say the sleeves are super generous compared to Gap’s “modern” line of shirts but they are still long enough on my arms! Note that the sleeves have a very wide cuff and the hem is rounded. I was able to wear it well into my pregnancy. Next on my list to grab is one of their Modern turtleneck options as well, click here to shop the turtlenecks. Lastly, if you prefer ribbed fabric, they have turtlenecks in more fun colors, here.

We hope you found our Gap tall favorites round up helpful! Have you grabbed anything from Gap you love recently? Share it in the comments below!

One of our more regular requests is where to shop for tall pajamas. We are back and pleased to introduce you to Lola Long Tall Sleepwear today! Sorry to disappear for some time, life gets busy and we are still quite active over on Instagram. We would love it if you’d drop some comments below and tell us what kind of blog posts you love the most and/or find the most helpful! Anyways, back to the good stuff – all about these magnificent pajamas!

You would think sleepwear should be the least of our concern, as tall women. Selfishly, it actually has been a low priority for us, especially when it came to assisting our tall sisters in shopping. That is because we are spoiled and have a Grandma AND Mother who have made us wonderful pajama pants for 30 years running. We realize most of you might not be so lucky and that is why it is exciting to be able to share Lola Long tall sleepwear for your shopping needs.

Sustainability

We’re excited about Lola Long tall sleepwear for a myriad of reasons. First, we believe they combine sustainability with accessibility. What does that mean? You’re not spending hundreds of dollars on pajamas but you can also feel great about shopping with Lola Long. The pajamas are made in California, so you know you’re supporting the US economy plus someone is getting paid a fair wage for the garments.

Fabric

The fabric is bamboo and is so lovely and luxurious. We tried out the long set (the long sleeve tall top and the tapered leg pant) and the tank and shorts set and honestly we both need both in our lives. Especially since becoming a mother, I had never been someone who ran warm at night. Now, I regularly find myself having hot flashes and sweating much more easily. Bamboo fabric is what I didn’t know I needed in my life! It is super breathable plus it is so soft and moisture wicking. 

Perfect Length and Colors!

As you can see, the long set is an amazing length on my 6’4 frame. No wrists or ankles hanging out in these frigid Wisconsin winters. The tapered leg is a favorite for me, because it is not skin tight or too baggy. It is absolutely something I would wear when having company visits on weekends! I consider these my grown up pajamas, they are luxe looking and the color options are also perfect. Navy, grey, or pink will never go out of favor! At least not in my house, haha.

Mix ‘n Match Pajamas

Lola Long also carries a straight leg pant option which sports a 35/36 inch inseam. Despite being wide leg, they also manage to look much chic-er than my other wide leg pajamas. If you prefer sleeping in shorts, check out the perfect pair Caitlin is rocking (tall tank top and relaxed sleep shorts). As we continue to shop, we’ve become much more selective about what we will and won’t accept in our closets. A certain inseam is required to sleep! Lola Long hits the mark perfectly, so again you wouldn’t feel strange wearing your pajamas in mixed company! A mid thigh without making you feel like you have on Bermuda length.

We love that you can buy everything separately, which allows you to customize to your sleep needs. Plus if you like wearing complementary but not matching sets, this allows you to get different colorways in each piece as well! All of our pajama separate’s drape beautifully. That is another pet peeve of mine. You may like how a garment feels, but you look in the mirror and the fabric is super unforgiving and shows too much for my preferences. Especially with thin fabric. This fabric must be magic because it is very thin but still skims just how I need it to! Lastly, did we mention that this fabric does NOT shrink?! Can’t tell you how many times we have bought items only to wind up heartbroken after one wash due to shrinkage.

Perfect Christmas Gift

So in summary, Christmas is coming! These Lola Long pajamas are the perfect gift to your favorite tall woman (even if that happens to be you!!). As we continue to clear out our closets we relish holding onto the quality well-fitting pieces from tall small businesses more than ever. You better believe Lola Long is on the “to keep” list!

PS, if you think you’re checking out those slippers we aren’t surprised! They are from SAE London and are super luxe and well fitting for anyone with larger feet like us! Also check out our large size shoe guide here, they are included!

If you pay as close of attention as we do to Amalli Talli’s launches, you likely have been snatching up items as often as we have. Amalli Talli is going from strength to strength as they expand their offerings. We have been loving all the new color ways, as well as the different cuts. Basically, Amalli Talli tall tops are a must add to your closet. I think the valuable lesson here is to make sure you’re on their email list as the new items tend to sell out (within hours to days!). Today we’re back to talk sizing and share our recent favorite Amalli Talli tall tops. The last time we shared some of their tops, were the amazing turtlenecks and henleys. Check out the post, here.

Smocked Sleeve Tall Top

One of our favorite recent pieces is the Smocked Sleeve Tall Top. Luckily there are still all sizes left in white. Black and Wine colorways are sold out except for XL. To discuss sizing, we went with our regular medium. This top is meant to have a relaxed fit and despite it fitting a bit looser, still is very ideal for tucking without adding additional bulk. It is a thin fabric, so if you go with white, you might choose to wear a cami underneath. The feminine details drew us to this top. The shoulder and wrist detail create an ideal top you can be proud to wear anywhere. Plus, you can always rest assured the shoulder placement will be perfect.

Josephine Button Back Tall Top

It’s been many years but I feel super happy to announce that Caitlin now loves turtlenecks like I do. Super bonus points if they are a looser neck fit, which was the original deterrent from her conversion. Josephine arrived on the scene and we were smitten. Still a very streamlined fit but more of a skim than the Amalli ribbed mock neck drop of last Winter. The buttons on back neck are there to elevate it from a basic. Given that we both love to wear our hair in a top knot bun, you better believe that will be our go-to hairstyle to show off the back! We also adore the two neutral colors, mocha and dark grey. Sizing, we stuck with our usual medium but you can size down accordingly if you prefer a tighter fit. Personally I like the difference of being able to go tighter with my mock necks vs this skimming fit. Click here for my mocha or here for Caitlin’s dark grey.

Thermal Henley Tall Long Sleeve

Get you a company that can do both. What do we mean by that? Peep the Henley’s Amalli Talli dropped last Winter and then check these updated versions. Why should we have to choose between the tight fitting option and the heartier thermal option? Wisconsin, while relatively reasonable in the Fall, gets frigid indeed the rest of the long Winter. Which means there is a necessity for both! Plus we love that the buttons are functional for personalizing your look. Stuck with medium in these Henley’s and they have a nice roomy fit. Go ahead and size down if you prefer something tighter. Click here for my black henley and click here for Caitlin’s white henley!

Ribbed Long Sleeve Tall Tee

I don’t know about you, but it feels like every time I find a long sleeve style I like, the company never makes it again. Au contraire, with Amalli Talli. They not only brought their best seller back, but they improved the fit with a bit of extra stretch to the rib fabric. It makes the tee look AND feel super luxe. We all need high quality basics in our wardrobes, because they get much more wear than special occasion pieces. Now the only question is, how to choose which colors to add?? Our problem is to not always “treat ourselves” to every single color. But they are all SO GOOD! These are the problems we like to have. We snagged the dusty rose color here and the hunter green, here.

We hope this Amalli Talli tall top guide is helpful for you! Click here to shop the Amalli Talli site. I know we’re all anxiously awaiting for their future sweaters as the temperatures are already starting to drop in Wisconsin. Lastly, don’t forget to use code THEREALTALL10 for 10% off your order!
