For $8 you can enjoy that feeling everyday.
Make sure you have good renters insurance just in case.
Here's a new book that's really helpful for particularly tall teenage girls, called Awesome Advantages of Being a Tall Girl. Here's a review of it.
There's an Amazon maxi dress that's popular in a tall group I'm in on Facebook. Lots of 6' women posting that the length is good.

Chefs kiss These are pretty good quality though and have pockets! You can type in the seams of course but I feel like that never fully works, this was that + comments + hoping for the best lol
I think this question is about socks, but in case anyone’s interested, these are the only thigh high boots I’ve ever been able to wear. Still a little tight though. https://www.amazon.com/DREAM-PAIRS-Womens-Chunky-Natasha-1/dp/B08SLQHVBH/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=DREAM%2BPAIRS%2BWomen%27s%2BThigh%2BHigh%2BFashion%2BBoots%2BOver%2BThe%2BKnee%2BBlock%2BHeel%2BBoots&qid=1620420779&sr=8-4&t...
The gown is the Lace & Gold version of this dress. Purchased in 2018 and doesn't look like it's currently available: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07476SNJ9?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Shoes are flats from Old Navy and the dress covers the shoes when standing.
Spandex or other similar stretchy material in your jeans is a must. I bought some shorts on Amazon that I've been able to wear with some weight fluxes. I've bounced between size 8 to 12, and the shorts are a size 10. I have fairly athletic legs, but there's not a lot of juice in my caboose.
I have 3 colors, the regular denim is the most stretchy. I have to wash after one wear to keep them looking more fitted. The black and the red I prefer the fit in the second wear.

I'm 5'10/5'11, a 36B and carry just a little extra weight right in my lower abdomen that I usually can completely flatten with the right jeans or high waisted shorts. This swimsuit does the same! It isn't incredibly sexy or anything, but made me feel a lot more confident than most swimsuits.

I swear by the skirt. I trip on it all the time. When I shop on amazon, I hound the reviews and questions for tall people. It’s not successful every time but I found so many good ones. I have the dark red in that skirt and it’s beautiful
Would these work?

These are super comfy and waaaaaaaaay longer than necessary (I’m 6’1”). Also, pockets!
I've ordered 9 pair of these. I know, it's a problem.
Maybe they'll work for you too? Amazon Link
Amazon but honestly.. I have never had a height-related issue? I don't gravitate towards items that connect.
Example of a recent purchase- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073G3FS4G?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share just throw out the crummy underwear right away.

No idea what style you are interested in, but I got this from Amazon SweatyRocks Women's Sexy Basic... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081981GTX?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Ordered larger size than usual as per reviews.
I love these ones! They are a sturdy fabric (not see through) while otherwise being light and stretchy, and they have deep pockets. The colors are rich and they seem to be accurately sized/run a bit large (likely from the stretch). And when you twirl, skirt go spin!
My brother is 6'4" 215 and got a Steelcase and loves it. There was a pretty lengthy waiting period. I'm 5'11" and have a Humanscale freedom chair and it's been amazing.

I'm a DD, 6 feet tall. Fits like a dream once you get the strings tightened. Very supportive for the bust.
For tights, I highly recommend Berkshire Fleece Lined Tights: Berkshire Women's Cozy Tight with Fleece-Lined Leg https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005IG2MC0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_JGRV6KSWNPWCN0J426HQ?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1. I have them in every color and can easily wear them an entire winter without runs or snags. For activewear stuff, my usual go-to is Old Navy. Their tall leggings are actually a bit long for me. The 7/8 length is my favorite and actually fits that way. Athleta also has tall sizes, but they are more expensive.
I actually love these men's Fruit of the Loom sweatshirts, I have them in several colors and both the hoodie and crew-neck versions. They're super soft and comfy, and the arms are long since they're men's. Plus they're only $12.
They're cotton and I order a size Medium.
I bought this in a medium and large, kept both, but prefer the large. I’m 6’

I've really been enjoying this hoodie that I got in two colors: BALEAF Womens Fleece Full Zip Athletic Running Jackets Hooded Thermal Sport with Thumb Holes
I originally got it because I thought the thumb holes would add extra length but turns out the sleeves are actually long enough for me to use them!

Would these work? I'm 5'10" and they were long enough, I usually need a 34" inseam, but a little less for leggings. I wore them up in Northern Maine around Thanksgiving, pretty warm.

These tights from Amazon are the first tights that ever fit me. I’m usually super uncomfortable in tights but these were awesome!
I love my sketchers go walk. They are stretchy, and you don't have to bend over to get them on. They apparently come in a 13 and a 13 wide.

i love dickies! i have these and they’re sooo comfy. they look like cargo pants even tho they’re listed as scrubs. i’m 5’11 and the hem touches the ground 🤩
I highly recommend these jackets! The same brand also has regular hoodies too. They are men’s, but are slim fit but fit like women’s. I am 5’8, but like you have stupidly long arms and legs. I bought the MT in both black and lavender and I love them! I normally wear and medium in men’s and these jackets fit great. I even bought one for my mom, who has longer arms than me. I highly recommend them!

These are fleece lined and come in leggings, straight, boot cut, etc., just scroll down and see links. Different inseams up to 37". I have not tried myself but I got the recommendation from another tall girl so I would assume they are decent.
Ballet Flats for casual. These are great, cheap, and up to size 15.
Strappy sandals for heels. Only Maker is a great place for this.
I found these on amazon and they have a 37” inseam.
6’4” and a 38” inseam…and 33 wks at this point. Maternity clothes shopping is ridiculous right now even if you are “average” sized. I highly recommend getting a few nice yoga pants with a stretch waist that you can either lounge in or secretly dress up if need be and some maxi dresses. That’s the best way to get by and stay comfortable from what I have experienced so far. I also just buy the average maternity pants and rock them as capris. Yogispace on Amazon is my go to and they are pretty affordable and come in extended inseams. I have lived in my maxi dresses and athletic shorts this summer though.
6'4" guy here, but I recently got one of these and am quite happy with it. No headrest, but the number of controls/settings you can change is about as close as you can get to a Herman Miller without the price. Forward tilt is a real gamechanger for when you find yourself hunching over your desk. I plan to get one for my companies new office if they end up getting crappy chairs. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003G4OJK4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_DFMXHV1JAP13ZZ0FFXAK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I’ve had the Amazon Basics Highback Executive office chair for the last year and been pretty pleased with it. It’s very well padded and sturdy, especially for the price. I will say, though, the back does not adjust and for us mega talls (I’m 6’5), I wish the back was taller or had a headrest.
But, for a budget option, it’s pretty solid!

I don't know how tall OP is, but this would absolutely not be long enough on me, and I'm not even 6'.
I really like this random microfiber towel I found on Amazon, it isn’t very expensive and at 3’x6’, it has plenty of leftover material. Extra bonus, the microfiber is great for reducing frizz in your hair, especially for complicated curly routines! link
So I made an accidental discovery. Chub rub brand anti-chafe stick does nothing. In fact, it makes chafing worse BUT it does keep shorts from riding up. My too short skimmies stay put, so the combination appears to work.
Also these shorts are1"longer than jockey skimmies. They've worked well to not ride up my legs (sans useless anti-chafe stick). So look for at least an 8" inseam for your legs. Anything shorter will probably ride up.
Specific to thigh width, you may have to size up for your thighs and take in the waist. You can have this done for you at the dry cleaner. They'll use a machine called a serger.
Summary: long bike shorts, at least 8" inseam. Maybe anti-chafe rub (chub rub brand) + your existing shorts. Size up and take in the waist + previous recs.
I have a 32inch inseam and I’ve found these socks to reach well over my mid thighs! Would recommend

This dress fits perfect. I’m your height and it’s a little too long! It is a little see through, so definitely get a slip with it but I highly suggest this dress. I have a shit ton and I love this one the most. It can be dressed up and down!
I have this in the bright blue and a dark green.

No idea on maternity (I pretty much just wore stretch jersey dresses for 5 months), but if you're planning on breastfeeding, these were amazing for me:
I still wear them as base layers a year later.
Wedding photographer here 👋 Is your dress full length? If so, I really recommend not spending too much time or money — so many of my clients spend OODLES of money on shoes that are barely seen. Personally I’d recommend a subtle gold ballet flat — dressy, simple, comfortable.

Another option is Indian juttis, although it’s hard to find 12s. But they’re beautiful! That’s what I wore for my wedding :)
I had bought this black dress before from RomWe on Amazon though and it fit very nicely. I’m a bit taller than you and I thought it covered my bum appropriately. However on sites like that, just how someone else mentioned to check the height of the models, I always check models height and see what size they’re wearing and see how short or long the dress is on them to estimate how it would possibly be on me. RomWe on Amazon
It's this one btw! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079HVLMZC/
I checked all the normal sites for size tall rashguards, but couldn't find any I liked with a zipper. I just wanted something cute to protect me from UV on the beach. Decided to take a chance on this one from Amazon because everyone mentioned the sleeves were too long in the reviews (and one helpful 6' girl said the sleeves were just right).
I'm a size 6 with 36" chest, and the size 6 fits perfectly for a tight swimsuit fit. I usually have to size up for internet orders but I'm glad I stuck with my normal size. The torso is average length, but I just wanted something with sleeves that were long enough. The only downside is that when zipped up all the way, it cuts into my throat, but when it's zipped down a bit, the zipper pokes out in a funny way. Nothing that bothers me too much though.
I lived in Florida when I had my first 2 kids...so "tall" wasn't really important b/c I wore shorts or capris the entire time.
But then I had a baby in Germany and it was pretty cold. I'd already purchased a lot of my Tall clothes before leaving the country b/c I lived briefly near the Canadian border.
Where I was living there were zero plus or tall options and in maternity.
So. I bought a belly band like this. I would recommend doing the cotton+lycra instead of the "seamless" or "no-slip" versions. Cotton is just more comfortable, frankly. I just linked for clarity. It's not an endorsement. The brand I bought I didn't see on Amazon (it was also like 8 years ago). And I bought button extenders like this. Yes, there are plenty of "tricks" with hair ties - but I busted too many hair ties. These work much better and were much more adjustable and forgiving. Having a few backups is good b/c as they stretch out you do need replacements. So I used the pants extender and then covered it with the belly band to hide it and the gap from my shirt. I didn't buy any actual maternity clothes for that pregnancy.
When it got really cold I couldn't close my good coat I just wore an overside zip-up hoodie. The belly band, plus a t-shirt, plus hoodie seemed to be fine. Especially b/c my body temp is much higher when I'm pregnant and even my good coat was "too much" sometimes.
I don’t have great cold weather recommendations, but I do have two pairs I love for indoors.
These are long, and super comfy, but not very warm. Pick the long length size obviously. I’m 5’10.5 and they fit well. I tried the adidas fleece joggers and they were definitely shorter. I still wear them but my legs/ankles would be cold outside.
These are also super super comfy and long, almost too long for me. But also not warm enough for outside.
Hopefully this is helpful, wish I had a good Recc for cold weather too.
I have the same issue... 32" inseam, but also big calves, and somewhat largish thighs... and I really dislike having cold legs. So these worked really well for me.

Also, I've bought men's knee high socks before, that work really well as knee highs... but I can't find the link right now, but they were Amazon.
Ok- So I guess the actual ones are listed as 34”. I usually need a 36” or 37” in regular pants and these fit great. The fleece is thin- but still warmer than regular leggings!

Oh my Lord, I just discovered this sub about 4 minutes ago and I have found my people. Not sure if this is allowed but I'll link a pair of sweatpants I ordered from Amazon. I bought them based off how many reviews raved about their length and I LOVE them. They say they have a 32' inseam but I'm 5'11" and they graze the top of my foot without being huge everywhere else. I'm a big old girl and they actually look like they do on the model. I know what you mean about keeping a pair until they wear out, the last pair I had like this was from the Gap and I didn't toss them until they were more holes than fabric. My other fav is Eddie Bauer but I don't think they have much for casual wear.
Good luck!
AmazonBasics! I got these and I'm a 9.5. They are a smidge long on me and could stretch even more: Amazon Essentials Women's 6-Pack Performance Cotton Cushioned Athletic Crew Socks, Black, Shoe Size: 8-12 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FHBS9MB/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_i0sQDbAQ8SRVC
I also have knee socks from Universal Thread (a target brand) that are knit and verrrry stretchy. They have a foldover top so they fit!
I'm the same height as you and have the same problem. DKNY is the only brand I've found whose tall size is actually long enough. The thicker pairs also tend to be good quality, while the really thin ones are delicate (but I think that's true of might nylons). I think these are the ones I have that have held up really well. Though I bought mine at Macy's, not amazon, so I can't speak to whether the ones on amazon are authentic (a few of the reviewers are claiming they're not)
There are loads of no heel boots on amazon- example goes up to size 11: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078JJBC1V/ref=cm_sw_r_fm_apa_i_fRg6Db18E7DMP try "no heel boots" or "flat boots." Note that they won't be as grippy and will be more fashiony.
Unpacking your other point- I like being tall. It took me until I was in my 20s to get to that point.
For jeans I go 2 inch inseam, cotton/linen (like these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078SMRCY5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_m6KwFbY7MY37Z) I think 3-5 looks better. For workouts, my 3-5 inch inseams are only for home workouts- I tend towards midthigh for public use. Exception- my dance shorts for under dresses are like 1ish inch.
Edit to add: I don't like non-athletic shorts, I only wear them if I know I'm not sitting much. They go up the thighs when sitting and then you have to do the weird crotch pull.
I completely understand. It was a lot of trial and error with my first. I never had much success with breastfeeding specific clothes since they, of course, never came in tall sizes. However I did have luck with this dress. It even has pockets!
LOVE Boden. Pricy but quality clothes. They do have good sales if you keep an eye on it.
Bought these Naviskin over the heel leggings last year from Amazon and they are awesome (I wear them as normal leggings and they’re super long): https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B07F8ND3DH/ref=pe_2361882_282382012_TE_item
I did a lot of trial and error buying swimsuits on amazon to figure this out, and this one is my favorite by far. Fit my super long torso comfortably and actually looks good on me: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NN8JPGG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Some amazon sellers go up to 13!
Update: so I bought some leggings from amazon, and they’re actually pretty great. They were about $30. Wish they were cheaper, but at least they fit. Plus they’re over the foot, which is nice. Here’s the link if anyone’s interested: (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K5YFVGP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_fvR9EbS7ZSQWA)
I just bought these from Amazon and they go OVER MY FEET, have giant pockets, and aren’t so thin that you can see your undies through them. (6’1” with 35”-36” inseam here). They are also under $30.

Coincidence that you’re asking/I’m seeing this because I just ordered this one on Amazon and I’m happy with it! It’s definitely the size I wanted- I was kinda shocked how much more comfortable it was to practice compared to the standard size one I upgraded from. I do wish it were a bit thicker but I think it’s great for the price and it’s still comfortable to me! I’m a half inch under 6’1” by the way.

Edit: I'm usually an 11 or 12 (US), not sure what you are, but I have found many great shoes through Amazon.
