The secret is out, there is a new large size sneaker brand you NEED to try if you have larger feet like us! Tiosebon brand has quietly been making sneakers for some time now and has reached over 10,000!!! 5 star reviews on Amazon. So as a celebration they’re doing a ridiculously good sale that you need to check out! Their sneakers are half off until the end of August. Our Mom already snatched up two pairs for the price of one, as she is a size 13 like me (Jenilee). 

Caitlin and I were just chatting about how unfortunately size 11.5 doesn’t typically exist anymore. She ended up choosing a size 12 as she’s in between sizes 11 and 12 most of the time and it’s nicer to have a bit of extra room instead of squeezing your toes into something too small. Tiosebon is definitely true to size, so when she buys her next pair she’ll definitely stick with an 11!

The year is 2020 and most of us are getting more and more casual in our everyday wear. No matter if you’re stuck at home and only venturing out for a grocery store run every other week or if you still have a commute into work, you need these shoes! They are like wearing socks and have great support. You could wear them easily for a full day of walking around (whenever we can travel again). 

We’ve both been testing them out and each day I’m usually looking for an excuse to throw them on. There are so many color options and two different style options as well. The style we chose has a decorative lace front, meaning that it doesn’t tighten. I have more narrow to regular feet and although I have space in the shoe I don’t feel any danger of my foot slipping out.

Caitlin has a bit wider feet than me and she is very comfortable in hers as well. The nature of the material seems like it would allow someone with a wider foot to still fit in the shoe well. Obviously we can’t say definitively but just our feedback if you’re wondering about your foot size/shape! 

So in summary you will not regret buying these shoes! The price point is ridiculously good and they have up to size 13 and so many color options. If you end up buying, let us know what color(s) you chose below!

We made it to Friday! Nordstrom’s Sale is quickly approaching and you might even already have fatigue about it from being inundated with blogger’s choices. As women with large feet, we shop for at least half our shoes at either Nordstrom or more regularly Nordstrom Rack. With this sale, some of their pricier shoes might become more affordable for you to snap up, so we’d be remiss if we didn’t share with you everything we’re eyeing! Depending if you have the card, some of the sale is already live or about to go live for you. Unfortunately we’re still pretty sure they only go up to size 13 after looking through the options and there still isn’t a ton at that size. Give this post a scroll through and click any of the links right below the pictures if you’re on the hunt for some new Fall/Winter additions!

Drop any questions in the comments below, otherwise happy shopping!

Last year we did a shorts roundup and it might have been one of our most popular posts. Obviously we don’t go all out and buy a whole new wardrobe of shorts every year but tend to update key pieces or new silhouettes every year depending on the styles. If you want to check out last year’s round-up, click here! 

In the meantime, we had gotten a few questions about the shorts we have added this Summer in our DM’s and it triggered us to write this post in case it could help any more of you looking to update or add to your shorts collections! The good news is, now is the time to buy them! We’re getting to the end of July and stores are wanting to clear their inventory to make way for their Fall arrivals. Yea, cue the eye-rolling on our part as well. No one is rushing away Summer in these parts, believe us! So let’s get to the shorts sharing, shall we?!

American Eagle


Caitlin found these 90’s shorts from American Eagle and we are both absolutely loving them. Normally when shopping AE, we wear a size 12 in their stretchy Mom jeans. These shorts do not have much if any stretch to them. I’m wearing a size 14 and Caitlin sized up two sizes to 16 for a slouchier fit (but definitely has way too much space in the waist). We love the high rise waist and it actually does cover our belly buttons. Plus despite them looking like not much length in the front, they go longer in the back so no risk of butt cheek exposure! In fact, she loves them so much she went back and grabbed the other colors/washes to complete her collection.

Gap

Last year, Gap was one of the biggest parts of our shorts round up, and obviously, when things work well for us, we keep coming back year after year. Our shorts collections were missing some higher rise options and considering that’s the bulk of our jeans preference we knew we needed to add a couple of pairs. This year, I added these button fly front shorts. The best part? They are a curvy cut. We’ve struggled so much with the disparity between our thicker thighs and smaller waist shape. I found with the curvy option I didn’t even need to size up and wore my regular 31 Tall! Call that a win. 

Caitlin also has been loving the tie-dye options this year and had to give their tie-dye shorts a try. She got them in a 31Tall as well! They are a super cute way to participate in the tie-dye but are also subtle which we love. Gap does a really great job offering tall shorts for that add on an extra inch or so to make them that 4-5inch mark that feels adequately covered for our long legs. Plus in our experiences, they have some stretch so they will mold to your body really nicely without bagging out.

Amalli Talli

If you’re less into denim shorts, hopefully, you didn’t miss Amalli Talli launching their shorts collection this Summer, with two different colored linen options PLUS a pair of camo athletic shorts! We’re all about both pairs, for different reasons. The linen has been cut for a wonderful midi length, plus they’re lined for a chic classy look you can wear anywhere. We’d say there isn’t stretch to them, I (Jenilee) am wearing a Large and Caitlin sized up to XL for a more relaxed fit. The camo shorts are a bit shorter and so so comfortable. We’ve been living in them during our work from home days. We both sized up from our normal large in Amalli bottoms and are happier with the fit!

ASOS

We haven’t bought any new options this year, but they have dropped several in updated prints but the same silhouettes we’ve gotten last year so we wanted to share those in case you missed out! We both wear size 10 across the board for ASOS design and they are all true to size. We love the high waist of their paper bag waist options and the loose leg fit. They are also work from home approved due to their jersey fabric and comfortability. Plus they are priced very reasonably. So no regrets after adding these to your closet!

That’s all we’ve got for our shorts round up this year, we’re hoping it helped. Shorts are a triggering item for many women to buy, ourselves included. Our advice to you is to never be afraid to size up. It’s much better to go up a size than to have ill-fitting shorts that you can’t be comfortable in. Comfortable you = happy you, and size is just a number! We all know stores vary on sizing so don’t spend any extra time getting hung up on it. Find your favorite pair and enjoy summer and bare legs while you can.

High on the list of tall girls’ most needed items, is a work wardrobe. Obviously not every woman will need business professional pieces, but we’ve heard enough pleas for where to shop loud and clear! Obviously it’s an odd time in the United States and most of the world, with COVID continuing it’s spread and keeping most of us on lockdown. We’ve at least transitioned part-time back to being in office and are super excited to introduce you to a new tall brand, Tall Moi!

Tall Moi is founded by Bukola Bankole, for the reason most tall companies begin: solving our fashion problems for lack of choice. Why should it be so difficult for tall women to create a wardrobe, especially one professionally? It is an inevitable part of our adult lives to have to own clothing you can wear in a job setting. I distinctly recall having to dress up for basketball game days in high school and whining to my Mom about a lack of options. We are lucky to have a Mom who gets it, as she is 6’2 as well! 

The secondary part of that is having updated “cool and current” workwear. As a teenager, I liked my Mom’s wardrobe, but I liked it for her, not me! Later, as I began my career, her wardrobe was there to save me until I could afford to build my own. So for those game days, I wore too-short skirts and the same culottes (then referred to as gauchos just to age myself), to get by and fit in.

Plus if you’re a potentially still growing teen, it’s difficult to pay a premium for the few option dress pants available. Knowing they might not fit for long makes deal hunting critical! That is why Tall Moi is so GENIUS! Founded with the idea of meeting fashion needs for tall women, we have to agree they are doing just that! They have designed reversible capsule wardrobes and we’re so excited to share them with you.

Business wear is tough enough to find pieces in your length. Now you can buy one pair of pants and get two! The Brook Herringbone/Green Slim Pants are such a fun yet classic addition to our closets. No longer do you have to get by with your boring options at some of the larger retailers who provide options in only black and navy. If you travel for work, it suddenly makes your packing a breeze. Just turn the pants or dress to the other side and it’s a fresh look!

Tall Moi is doing their part to make sustainable fashion a reality for us, and we’re here for it. As two women who love fashion and creating new and unique looks for the office, the versatility of their pieces is a must for our closet. So now instead of having to shop for an additional piece, we can create double the looks with one piece of clothing. Like we said before, complete genius. 

The clothing is made of polyester/spandex/rayon and skims our bodies in a feminine yet professional way. Another thing we love about Tall Moi is the clothing is designed to be seasonless. Meaning you can wear it throughout the whole year! As Wisconsinites can attest, we have many pieces in our wardrobes we have to switch out depending on the season. Obviously this can add up quickly in building a work wardrobe. 

You can invest in any of these pieces, knowing that you will be able to wear year-round. Like the Geena Reversible Ponte Sheath. Cut for our tall bodies, they thoughtfully designed it three quarter length sleeves. We all are subjected to the office’s arctic air conditioning temperatures in the summer months, so we definitely are never searching for sleeveless options to wear there! Plus we love the piping detail down the front, as it draws the eye downward and therefore creates a slimming effect.

You’re going to be so happy to add these pieces to your wardrobe! If you check out Tall Moi’s website they have a ton more info on their design process and not contributing to fast fashion. We feel lucky to be able to introduce you to these exciting pieces that will be timeless pieces in your closet and will ultimately save you from wasting money elsewhere!

For sizing info, we’re both wearing a size large in the dress and the pants. If you’re in between sizes we’d say size down. There isn’t a ton of stretch to the pants, however, there is more for the dress! As always, we’re happy to answer any other questions you might have.
