Real Tall Finds Friday: Volume 10

Coming back today for a Real Tall Finds Friday, which has been on hiatus out of respect for many who may have lost their jobs. We realize that many of you may still be shopping, per some feedback we’ve gotten over the last couple of weeks. Either way you cut it, people are in different situations right now. So while we’re not going to necessarily do RTFF every week, we wanted to outline a couple of ridiculous deals we’ve stumbled across lately.

First up are turtlenecks from Gap. Most of the time, I buy my trendier pieces from places like H&M. This gets the job done for cheap and if the trend is super quick, I don’t feel bad about spending a few dollars on it, like the green snakeskin turtleneck you might remember from earlier this year. However, Gap usually has RIDICULOUSLY GOOD end of season sales. Since they have a decent selection of tall pieces, I’m constantly scrolling their site and adding to cart while I wait for the right sale. You can snag this turtleneck for under $5 if pink is your color, with long enough sleeves and body length!

Next up, Caitlin and I were just talking about long sleeve blouses on Facetime with our Grandma. As the OG tall matriarch of our family, you can imagine she had many struggles growing up and finding well-fitting clothing. The ole, back in my day story arc never rang so true! While the list is unfortunately still pretty short of stores with well-fitting button up blouses, Gap made the list! This linen blouse is one of our most reached for pieces, especially because it can easily be worn to work. It is lightweight and the shoulder fit is ideal, as well as the generous sleeve length (yes, for both of us!). We’ve bought them in Large Tall historically, and they are a nice long length and very easy to tuck in. You can get it for under $30 right now… what a steal!

Also, despite it being out of season I must mention this velvet jumpsuit. Every season when holiday festivities roll around, I find myself yearning for all of the velvet pieces. Recognizing that I’ll get minimal use out of it otherwise, I resisted the pull. But… for $11?! In a tall?! I must, and did. I can confirm that this velvet jumpsuit is the right length in the body for tall women! I bought a size 12 tall and although I might take it to the tailor for the upper body, the lower body skims exactly as I’d like it to!

I also like to stock up on long sleeves from Gap out of season. I bought this scoop neck long sleeve, which is also under $10 in Medium Tall. It again, has great sleeve length, and the scoop neck is neither too high or too low!

Also worth mentioning if you’re on the hunt for shorts, Gap always has great length options. They still do tall shorts, which are typically between .5-1 inch longer than the mainline options. I bought these high rise curvy denim shorts, and have to say, we are super stoked to be seeing more and more “curvy” options offered at retailers. We have long had to size up to fit our thighs/butt and ended up stuck with a larger than needed waist gap. I bought these in a 31 Tall and they are 4.5 inches long. Plus they come up past my belly button, so a true high rise!

Lastly, one of Caitlin’s favorite buys from Gap probably within the last year, are the Cigarette Jeans. They are true to size, and hug her curves perfectly. (My side note is, as being five inches taller, I don’t love the length on me). But on her 34 inseam at 5’11, they hit ideally at the ankle. We’re typically between a 30/31 at Gap. This pair does have some good stretch to it, we say stick to your usual size. All in all, they are a polished looking pair of jeans that elevate your look and they are under $35!

As always, we thank you for choosing to click any of our links and/or purchase through them. We do make a small commission, and it is also great feedback to see what you ladies are or are not interested in! Have a wonderful weekend, and stay safe!

Caitlin also just placed a last minute sale order due to their huge sale and got these items:
