Old Navy "Summer's Almost Over" Fitting Room Review



I popped into my local Old Navy the other day to return some things and ended up coming out with more than I anticipated. Nonetheless, I am happy with my purchases. =)


The Keepers


Old Navy


Crew Neck Vintage Tee Size S/P




I love vintage t-shirts! 

Pros:  ...especially vintage-y, lightweight t-shirts that aren't see-through. I bought 2 colors: yellow and white.

Cons:  I can't think of any!


Sleeveless Top Size XS


I simply love the style and fabric of the sleeveless top. It comes in 4 other colors. I went with the mint (Green Goddess) because I'm lacking mint green in my wardrobe, and the other colors were more like Autumn shades. I didn't think I needed a sleeveless top for the Fall.

Pros:  I love the colors available. I've been looking for a fairly priced sleeveless top in this style. It seemed like everyone and their moms (not really) owned a top like this one. 

Cons: This shirt gets really wrinkle quickly. It's also hand wash only. 



Polka Dot Chambray Shorts Size 0

I wanted a pair of cute shorts...outside of the normal jean or khaki type shorts. 

Pros:  Perfect fit and so comfortable! The fabric is light enough for a summer day. It's a great way to add some pattern to an outfit.

Cons:  I can't think of any!







The "No Thank You"






Old Navy's Rockstar Super Skinny Jeans Size 4

There has been a huge appeal for the Rockstar Jeans. Unfortunately, these pants didn't win me over. It may have been because I tried on the super skinny jeans vs the new and improved Rockstar Jeans. I totally didn't realize that there are 2 different versions until I started writing this post! I may have to run in Old Navy again to check out the difference. I guess the only way to know the difference is if I memorized the group the different colors belonged to. However, based on the other online reviews, it seems like these reviewers encounter my same issues in the newer version.

Super Skinny Rockstar Jeans Colors



Rockstar Pop Color Jeans Colors (New & Improved version)




  
Pros: So many colors available!!!

Cons: They run small -- 2 sizes too small.  I tried on a size 4 after looking at the size 0 and thinking that I could only fit one leg inside those pants. Another con is that the fabric is stiffer than I'd like it to be. I was a huge fan of Gap's cropped skimmer jean leggings. The Gap jeans were softer, fitted much better against the skin and allowed me to move with ease.
