How do you feel about this? I hate any time a whole new style comes out. Finding stuff for talls is such a PITA! Of course, it's always more expensive as well (and I have no money). I also hate to buy clothes when I hope to be losing weight. Sigh.

As a tall woman (6 feet with a 35 inch inseam) I always felt like tunics made me feel more proportioned. As an overweight woman, I love that tunics 'hide' my fat, but I feel like they make me look larger.

    I'm not a huge fan of leggings but I love tunics! I borrow my friends "dresses" and wear them as tunics =) However, I do realize I'm using them to hide the parts I am not happy with, but I'm working on it!

    As long as stirrup pants don't come back. Such an attractive look on us tall gals with the crotch of the pants around our knees!
