At 5’8", I really don’t consider myself ‘very tall’, but as I’m also ‘a few’ pounds overweight, finding pants is horrible. I say all the time when shopping, as a woman I guess you’re allowed to be tall OR overweight, but not both.
There used to be one store in my area that sold ‘women’s’ sizes in taller styles, but now they’ve stopped stocking them and that store no longer even carries them online.
So, I guess my choices are to buy one of the very few styles you can find online without being able to try them on for fit before hand, take the retailer’s hint that I need to lose about 20 pounds, or my preferred choice of buying the regular length off the rack and telling those I know well at work that I just pretend they’re Capris ;).
