Longer-length t-shirts

If it's just a plain t shirt you want try the men's sections. Same materials, same colours, longer and often cheaper.

I have to admit, that link to Long Tall Sally does tempt me...

The other thing I do is buy jersey dresses on eBay and cut a few inches off the bottom. Sometimes what is sold as a dress only comes to just below my bottom anyway!

Thanks all. Will have a look at some men's t-shirts. As I said up thread, tunics are mostly long-sleeved and too thick and I only need one layer in this house! It is difficult because I only have a few days to shop, deliveries are difficult to time and the thing I really like about coming to England is the chance to go shopping! I think Cotton Traders do deliver here though. I used to buy from them when we lived in England, but found the t-shirts went out of shape round the neck quite quickly, have they improved that? I can also get Land End delivered here but they have got very expensive.

I've still got some Cottontraders Tshirts from 2002. I know that was the date because I bought them to wear when first Grandson was born in Kuwait and I went over to help. Long sleeves etc, they wash well. But I don't think they use the same quality cotton now.

Think they missed a trick not letting you search for their stores, but the nearest Primark to Tunbridge Wells is the Maidstone one - 15 miles away!

Primark Stores Ltd
62 - 64 Week Street
ME14 1RT
Maidstone (Kent)

Uniqlo do lovely long tee shirts which are not baggy, they are cheap and wash well, but there's not much on their website at the moment - wrong season I suppose.

I find TK Maxx is always good for a look, as they tend to have all seasons, all styles, at all times and all price ranges. You'd need a bit of time though to sort through it all.

NanaRayna I think it is hilarious that I wasn't allowed to search for where the Primark stores are. Obviously classified information.
I don't think I can get to Maidstone but I can go to Uniqlo at Bluewater and to TK Maxx.
Off to catch the ferry tomorrow, so I will let you know how I get on....

IBought long length vest style tops in dunns, very reasonable and Aldo long enough for leggings. I am quite tall 5ft 7.

Try Cotton Traders, they have a good website. Have had many different items of clothing from them with no complaints.

Well you are all right, no longer-length t-shirts anywhere.
However, my daughter gave me a pair of cast-off harem trousers (one of the joys of getting down to size 10 is that you get cast-offs from your daughter) and they are so comfortable that I have bought another pair, adopted them as my new winter uniform and can wear them with my ordinary length t-shirts.
I decided I needed a new coat and yesterday found a navy Max Mara wool and cashmere coat in a charity shop. It is beautiful.
I love shopping .

Wow mamie size 10! Hadn't you already slimmed down from a 14 to a 12?

Great find in the charity shop. I fancied a Laura Ashley faux leather biker jacket (it's in a nice darkish grey) but couldn't justify the cost (£120) because I didn't really need it. Anyway I kept going back to the website and lo and behold one fine day last week it was on sale at £35. Job done. I love it!

I started off at a size 16 before the diet GK! Mind you I would have to say that I don't think I would fit into the size 10 clothes from the last time I was a size 10 (roughly 1998).
You definitely get more choice in the smaller sizes in charity shops though. I paid £50 for the coat but looking on the MM website it probably started out at about £800 so feels like a real bargain.

Cotton Traders are good for long t shirts. If you look on line it says how long they are. I wear them all the time, winter and summer, and find them great. They do a lot of nice colours and wash well.

Grannyknot do you mean the charity shop was asking £120 for the jacket before it was reduced?

It's ages since I had a good look at the Cotton Trader's website, but I am glad I did because I think I will get a pack of these tunics -

www.cottontraders.com/pack-of-2-tunics/invt/aa13371

100% cotton, v-neckline and 3/4 sleeve - perfect!

Might get the other style too if I really like the first pack.

Thanks for the recommendations ladies!

I finally tracked down some t-shirts in Gap, with 70% off. Just need to remember to wash them on 30° now!

Lots of websites do a Tall option now, including Next and Dorothy Perkins. Only thing is I find you have to often get a size smaller because somehow Tall also seems to equate wider...
