I like Bianchis.
That said, I'm a tad under 5'6" and I ride a Litespeed Capella that I like a lot. But my first road bike was Bianchi Brava.
AllezGirl is about your height (a bit taller I believe) and she rides ... you guessed it ... a Specialized Allez. But according to her bike shop guy who measured me, her bike and mine have the same top tube length.
You're bike shopping -- test ride a ton of 'em!
If you can find one in your area, you might consider having a professional bike fitting done. They can take all your measurements and point you toward bikes that fit your body best. The cost for the fitting can be around $100.

"Keep plugging along. The finish line is getting closer with every step. When you see it, you won't remember that you are hurting, that anything has gone wrong, or just how slow or fast you are.
You will just know that you are going to finish and that was what you set out to do."
