Still Falling for Amalli Talli

As many of you know, I am a huge fan of Amalli Talli. If you have not read my first review on their amazing launch, please do (click HERE).

While I am definitely going to talk about some new and exciting tall options from Amalli Talli, let’s start with the remarkable women who founded and developed the line.

Sisters Alli Black and Amy Rosenthal felt the void that we have in fashion. They literally know how we feel because they are part of the ‘we.’ Amy is 6’4” and Alli is 5’10”. They saw and felt a need and literally went and continue to go after it. They create, test and release amazing tall styles to help us find what we need. It’s their passion and it drives them every single day. Check out this WWD article about what they do and the lack of inclusion of tall girls in fashion.

A prime example of the hard-to-find styles they create is the tall teddy jacket. I mean when was the last tall teddy jacket you have seen? I’ll wait.

These types of trendy items are incredibly hard to come by, if at all, and they really hit a home run with this one. The cut is appropriate for a tall frame rather than just having a couple of inches added on to it. It hits the waist right at the appropriate spot, is well constructed and it really does keep you warm. It’s an outerwear option that I will be wearing for cold seasons to come.

Now, I think my face tells the whole story. Who else is shocked when the busted knee actually hits at the knee? They hit this design right on the nose. The denim is soft but not too soft, as you can see the fit is right and the length is a true 35” or 37” inseam. I also personally love a great dark wash. Really, what is not to love about these jeans.

Now, we all know the trick where you roll up the sleeve to a faux 3/4 length to make it look like it was supposed to be made that way. I have been doing that to my jean jackets for years.

Not with this one right here hunni.

Just like the teddy jacket, it is the appropriate body length and the arms are spot on. I also love the light wash. While I don’t think they were made to go together, I like to wear it with the light wash Blakely Skinny jeans. Add a simple shoe and you are set.

You can also easily transition this look from day to night simply by taking off the jacket and rocking the jeans with the lace cami. Also, a hard item for us to find that Amalli Talli slayed.

As you can see. I am literally STILL falling for Amalli Talli. I love everything they have released and am on pins and needles to see what they are releasing next. I can’t wait for you to try it and remember to enter TALLSWAG15 in at checkout for 15% off your order.

Thank you Amy and Alli for everything that you do. I am looking forward to rocking Amalli Talli for years to come!

PS. My beautiful niece took all of these photos. I would put her name and photos on here but don’t really like to put her information on the web. Just know that she is super talented, strong and smart. I am blessed to be her Auntie.

Falling for Amalli Talli

We have been tall style blogging together for years now and I hope you know that sponsored or not, I am always going to give you the real. If I like something, I am going to tell you. If I don’t, I will certainly tell you. So when Amalli Talli approached me about working together to bring their brand new tall line to you, I needed proof. So they sent me all the things. Almost every new piece that they had and let me tell you, it delivered.

The quality is amazing. I was incredibly pleased especailly for the price range. Pieces from moto jackets to jeans to cozy sweaters range from $44-$95. That is unheard of for a line such as this. You may or may not know this but it’s incredibly hard to hit a price point like that when you are an independent designer like Amalli Talli. It’s literally two amazing women spearheading the whole operation and they did everything they could to make the price points affordable for tall women everywhere. That in itself wins my support.

But on top of that, the clothes are specifically made for our tall bodies. It’s not a let’s add an inch to the bottom of these pants type of line. It’s crafted for our beautiful long arms, remarkable torsos and killer legs. You feel it when you put the pieces on. It’s an experience that we don’t often get and I for one appreciate the moment.

Last but certainly not least, I am super happy that they are pieces that you can mix, match and layer. You can create so many outfits. As you can see, I created 6 and I could have styled more.

So in summation, I am looking forward to the next drop (which I will obviously show you). Check out all of the pieces and let me know what you think. I can’t wait for you to experience it yourself. Report back and share because I think we should all know about stellar tall style, don’t you?

Good Day Sacramento

November 30th not only marks my birthday, it will now also be known as the day that I recorded my first style segment on Good Day Sacramento. I am so incredibly thankful for the opportunity and here it is! Drumroll please...

Now for the deets! Neutrals will be taking over this season and to celebrate the trend, I styled 4 Tall looks that go a little somethin like this:

 ISSA WRAP

Carly (6'2") rocked a Tall wrap dress from Alloy Apparel. The arms are super long and the midi actually hits where a midi is supposed to. The shoes are by House No. 3028. You can order any shade of nude in sizes up to 13. In addition you have the option for a 2"-5" heel and a matte or shine finish. 

SPORTY SPICE

Monique (6'5") beautified an all black look with a little edge to it. The jumpsuit is from Height Goddess and is built just for our tall frames. It's not available right now but here are some options from asos and Long Tall Sally. The asos Tall leather look jacket and BRASH sneakers (up to size 13) completed this look.

PS. Neva, eva, eva, eva buy Payless Shoes without googling a coupon code or waiting for a BOGO. Also, you can order online and get them shipped to the store for free. I always order all the styles that I like, try them on in the store and return the ones I want right on the spot. 

SWEAT EQUITY

High necks and belled sleeves are both on-trend this season. With this tall sweater dress from Long Tall Sally you get both! Monica (6'1") served this navy piece (up to size 18) with a belt and these killer over-the-knee boots from Smash Shoes (they are REALLY over-the-knee and up to size 14). A simple, chic look that will never go out of style.  

COAT OF ARMS

Now you know it's hard to find a coat that keeps those wrists warm and hunni asos has one straight from heaven. Lameka (6'1") slayed it on Good Day with some 36" Height Goddess Jeans, a roll neck top from LTS and some beautiful Smash booties (up to size 14). Check out these jean options from asos, LTS, Alloy Apparel, Doubs Clothing and Amalli Talli.  

As for me...I have on a Long Tall Sally dress from last season and a pair of Eleanor Anukam heels (size 12).

A segment like this really takes a village to execute and let me tell you...my village is gorgeous and strong! Thank you to my dear friends Carly, Monique, Monica and Lameka for shutting these looks all the way down, my ace Nikki Notarte for always having my back and enhancing all of our beauty with her talents and last but certainly not least Courtney Dempsey for making all of this possible! God has really placed some incredible people in my life. I am blessed in every single way!

Let me know what you think about the piece. Also, if you have any ideas/connections for more pieces...please let me know. I mean...a closed mouth doesn't get fed lol. I am here for all of the constructive criticism, suggestions and connections:-)
