Nordstrom Rack! Eli Tahari, Calvin Klein. But I'm short, so they might not be knee length on you!

Dude here. Do tights minimize the "dress too short" dilemma? I see colleagues who wear dresses that might be a bit short otherwise, but with tights on I think looks fine. Sorry I am not good at fashion and sorry if this is way off!

To the guy above, I think tights do help minimize the dress too short issue, but they can't work wonders. I think it can only really help if it's not too noticeably short.

Agreed, "affordable" should also be a key word, I don't want to over pay for an appropriate work dress lol

Ann Taylor usually does because they have tall sizes. I've also had luck at anthropologie, which is more unique and eclectic rather than suiting. I've found quite a few at Nordstrom and Macy's if you have the patience for a large department store.
