I just lost 74lbs and have dropped from a size 18 to a size 10. As exciting as this is, I still cant find pants. I'm 5'10 so I need pants marked tall. NY&Company has great jeans but their pants are too stretchy and after 2 hours they are way too loose. What stores can you recommend? $50 an under please as i'm still losing weight and dropping sizes.
Cant wait to hear your recommendations!!

I LOVE Target's jeans. Seriously, lol. They come in tall lengths.0
-
I've always gotten my pants at Target, JC Penney I think (I always go to the juniors section of levi's), and Old Navy. I'm 5'10" and have found a good selection of talls there.0
-
I usually shop at Old Navy and Target. I am short but they have pants in all lengths. Hope you find something that fits you. I usually have a hard time finding short lengths.0
-
I was going to say NY&C. I absolutely love their pants. I just wear a belt with them. The tall lengths are great! (I'm 5'10" as well!) I have that problem with their jeans. I love them, but they are too stretched out in a few hours for me.0
-
Try Old Navy, they are pretty good and they carry tall sizes in all styles0
-
Kohls. I just tried some on there about a week ago. I am 5'7", they were too long for me.0
-
Maurices! I love their jeans and I am 5'11" ... Their jeans are marked "tall" but i sometimes have to buy "reg" length b/c the "tall" are super super long!!!0
-
I'm 5'9 and I find that Old Navy, JC Penny, and Forever 21 have good lengths, especially with their tall options.0
-
Kohl's. They have different brands available in tall.0
-
Victoria secrets always has tall jeans and at a decent price... and they are pretty cool:)0
-
Victoria Secrect's catalogue is where I get most of my pants, I'm 5'11 and a size 10 as well. I love the fit, they don't loosen up much.0
-
I hit the sales at Torrid. Their pants come in tall lengths and I am 6'. Most of my pants actually go past my ankles and a couple pairs even drag the floor if I am not careful. This is rare since I am all leg!
Good luck and congrats on the major loss!0 -
Lands End and LLBean have tall sizes and with Land's End a lot of their pants you can order the exact inseam length you want and they hem them no extra charge. And you can return them if they don't fit0
-
I am 5 9.5 and yes that extra half inch does make a dif in pants lol. I just bought a pair of target jeans in tall online and they are long enough. American Eagle has longs that are actually long. The target sizes run sort of small so if you order them online go up a size. I LOVE NY Co for their yoga pants and slacks though, can't beat them! They do have some styles that don't have the stretch to.0
-
I HATE old navy jeans. The stretch factor makes me look like a took a dump in my drawers after a couple hours.
When you do get to your goal weight, I highly recommend White House Black Market. Awesome jeans.0 -
Since you're still losing I'd suggest going to like Ross or Wal-Mart. I like to buy jeans from Torrid until they're too big. I also get mine from Old Navy and Target occasionally.0

lmao! ))0

Thanks for all your help!! I'll try those stores out!!! Cant wait to start shopping!0

My daughter is 6 foot but has the added problem of having an extremely long inseam (36-37')! The "tall" pants at most stores are not long enough in the inseam for her. The one and only store in our area where she can buy jeans is The Buckle and they are very expensive there. We have had some luck ordering from GAP online. We order from there when we can find a good sale or clearance. Their extra long pants are about 36 inch inseam. Hope this helps!0

my friend is 5 11 and she gets her jeans through a catalog http://www.newport-news.com/ and its a nice place and her jeans always fit0
-
I shop at JCPenny. Also, jcpenny has tall lenght in their shirts and workout clothes0
-
Oh, the shirts and workout clothes in tall are online0
-
I still am going to recommened New york and company. Try the different styles; maybe you need a smaller size if they are becoming too loose. I am 5'10 as well and ONLY wear this brand of pants. I love american eagle jeans as you can order them online in extra long and they are the perfect length to wear with heels/ boots.0
-
Old Navy (these usually produce a huge about of waist band gap-age though), JC Penney (Liz Claiborne Chelsea), and Kohls (the Levi's there are pretty affordable and a lot come in "longs").0
-
I agree...and have the same issues(5'10" and size 8-10) and I love Kohls and Old Navy. Penneys isnt bad either.0
-
I'm 5'9" and rarely ever can find long enough pants at Kohls.
I'd have suggested NY&Company too. Maybe you want to try buying a size smaller there...and once they stretch, you'll be all set?
JC Penney has a lot of talls as well. Sometimes you have to order from the catalog, but it might be worth it! If you do need more jeans, every tall girl I know loves Victoria's Secret for getting long enough inseams to pair with heels.0 -

I am about 5'9 and at the begining of my weight loss. I can't wait to have this problem! I'll be watching for early research.0

I am not a tall woman, but my wife is 5'11" and she swears by Victoria's Secret (She says their tall is actually tall not just non-short.0
-
Express! They carry tall. You may have to order online though to get the Tall length
