Thanks, Ginger. These are great tips. I'll definitely check them out!

tell you how tired I am of people telling me about my height. It doesn't go away

after middle school.

right now, but when I get on my regular one I have several tall clothing sites

bookmarked that I can share. There is a UK site (makes clothes for US too)

called " Long Tall Sally " (used to be Tall Girl Shop) that has great clothes, and

another one called " Long Elegant Legs " that is excellent too. The clothes are

beautiful. My main complaint about tall clothing is the cost. For some reason,

the prices are ridiculously more expensive, which seems unfair to me. But, for

quality clothing for business and casual these sites are really great. You can

slowly build a quality wardrobe.

Land's End has some, and Land's End makes the BEST long torso swimsuits that

I've found. They fit amazing and are fantastic quality. There is an eBay site

called " 's Tall Fashions " that has clothing from " Long Elegant Legs " on

clearance or overstock, for a cheaper price. Not as much selection but worth

checking out, I've found a few good deals there.

frustrating-I hate going shopping in regular stores. Nothing fits. One store in

our Mall here (Indiana) called Vanity makes super long jeans and pants-you might

try to find them online and check them out. I think for now we are stuck

online-retailers are slow to change.

case I forget. I can share with others who are interested, too.
