So when I first joined YLF I found that a lot of my pants were too short, and I went on a PPL odyssey. I have accepted, to a certain extent, that I have to buy talls in most brands of pants (which I think is nuts, by the way, because I'm not that tall. What do actual really tall ladies do?)

What I'm figuring out recently is that a lot of my shirts are too short as well. This is actually not that easy to solve since a lot of brands don't do tall tops and jackets. And I'm already on the big end of misses, and I know that when I was smaller it was even harder to find things that were long enough.

On the other hand, shorter cardigans and jackets work well with dresses, and sometimes skirts. Do you divide up your jackets and cardigans as to what will work with pants and what will work with dresses?

I tried to come up with a cardigan to wear on top of my dress-of-fail today and nothing worked at all; everything was too long.
