for jeans always look for longs, for swimsuits look for long torso. I will be facing this soon as my almost 12 yr old is 5'3" and hasn't hit puberty yet. There is an online store that has some really cool looking stuff at great prices, you could try their size charts to see.

Hope this helps

Try to find a straight leg "tall" jean rather than a bootcut or flare. It's easier to tell when jeans are on the short side when they are bootcut or flare, because it is more obvious when the flare isn't at the right spot. A straighter leg jean will help offset the fact that they may be a little short. Just make sure you go somewhere that has jeans in tall sizes, which most places have these days. Also, if they're still too short, you can take them to a seamstress along with a bit of fabric in neutral shades, they can take the hem out and add a cute detailed fabric to the bottom so they will be long enough and have cute details!

Look aroud for other people who are about your height. Take a mental picture of their outfits... go to popular clothing stores and see if you find something that looks like it.
If you are craftily inclined, you could try and make your own clothes. It's really not that hard if you have a good sense of style, access to a lot of fabrics, and a sewing machine.
You could try shopping at thrift stores. The stuff there always had to fit someone, and someone sometimes was 6 feet tall.
Or you could always try and tailor your clothes. (i.e., get pants that are REALLY big, then take in the waist until it fits)

Hollister jeans are long, even the regular size, though if your 6 feet tall you might need long =]
I know Hollister has long sizes in the store, while for American Eagle you can order them from the store and get free shipping.
They both cost about the same.

I have the exact opposite problem. I'm only five feet tall, and my jeans are always too long. Anytime I find a pair of jeans that fits my waist, they are way too long, and anything that fits my height will be way too tight. It's a vicious cycle. Haha.

Try looking at stores that carry jeans/pants for tall people, like Lerner New York and Levis.

they have many jeans that come for tall girls... example- size 5long.
you just have to look around. check out american eagle i think they have them their... and also kohls.
and shoes, just check out all the stores at the mall, and ask if they have your size.... im not really sure what size you would need, or where to get them
good luck :]]
