tall reader tips

i would like to give a shout-out to our new reader, christine, who has sent these tips for us tall chicks.  thanks, christine!

christine found a workout jacket with extra long arms.  the body is not extra long, but it is "tolerable" for her at 6'.  nice.  i like how you can see the length of the sleeves in the product picture.  this long-armed pullover is by cloudveil and is available on zappos.

christine and i also share a secret tall girl trick: wearing a dress as a shirt or tunic.  christine made some great finds at american apparel.  she says the chemise below is "a *perfect* camisole" for her.  she also has an american apparel funnel neck shift dress that she wears as a top.  very cute.  i want one of those.  i think american apparel sizes run on the smaller end of juniors sizes.  you might want to read the reviewer comments to help you determine the right size.

thanks again, christine, for your tips!  anyone else got any great finds?  let me know!

i often wear those new mini dresses as shirts and pair them with black pants or jeans... :)
