Everyone thinks tall girls have it easy in the fashion world. But in reality, those extra inches can make it difficult to find clothes that fit properly. Shirts turn into crop tops, and trousers become capris. And finding styling ideas can be just as much of a challenge. To find outfit inspiration and fashion tips, many women turn to Instagram, which provides an equal platform for influencers of all shapes and sizes. Before your next shopping spree, take a look at our five favorite fashion Instagram accounts for tall girls.
