Old Navy Sample Share: Summer Shorts!

Same Intro Info as before, incase you missed my Sample Share: Jeans post:  "I belong to an online group called Crowdtap.  Please read more information about it here: Crowdtap  One of the great things about it, you give your opinion, answer questions, participate in discussions, and then you raise money for charities.  I picked the Nature Conservatory.  There are about 5 options, all good choices of course!  :)

Another perk is participating in targeted discussions, some of my faves are to talk about Old Navy products.  I was recently approved to join an Old Navy Sample Share, basically I was mailed a coupon, 1 for me 1 for a friend, for a FREE pair of JEANS!!!  And so I/we headed to Old Navy to do some shopping!"

So same thing applies, except this was for Old Navy Summer Shorts Sample Share!  The coupon was for 1 pair of Shorts or Bermudas for you, and 1 for a friend!

If you read the fine print on the coupons, you found out early- no capris!  Bummer because they looked so cute in the store!  Not that I really need anymore capris, but they are so comfortable to wear!

I'm not a big fan of short shorts, even tho I found these ultra cute neon shorts: TEAL!  Not going to lie, I wanted them! However, I don't wear anything that short anymore!  If they had been in the Bermudas, I would have been all over it!

My Bermuda choice

As it was, I purchased the Bermudas in the dark wash:

I also liked the lighter wash with some wear and tear, however they turned out to fit too snugly in the thigh, even in 2 different sizes.

I'm on the fence about how much I like the rolled cuff.  As a DIY-er I'm considering releasing the cuff and ironing down, maybe cutting a short slit on the outer edge at my knee.  Or it might be fun to add a little bling or embroidery to the cuff.  Oh the options!  If I do decided to add or change something, I will be sure to post it here.

Another nice feature of these Bermudas is that the back pocket isn't overly flashy.  Which means, DIY it or leave it alone??  This would be a nice place for some simple embroidery stitches!

My sister was out of town on vacation when I needed to go shopping.  So my Mother and I went shopping, with the best of intentions to find her a great pair.  I think we succeeded!  She can pull off a bright colored pair of shorts!

Now, lets talk about some of the fun options I tried on but didn't buy!  First of all, they have some really pretty patterns and prints right now!  My only thought (besides 'oh pretty!') was, "How do I wear this?"  I loved the bright neons and the brighter patterns, such diversity!

I tried on this Black and Grey Floral that seemed wayyy too boxy on me!  Of all the patterns, I thought this would be easy to match colors with.  Then of course there is the Green and Teal Floral that has the boldest colors that really stood out!  

One of these days I am buying a white pair of shorts or Bermudas, what a clean look to have!  Unfortunately, for some of us it would only be clean a few short hours!!  And lastly I will leave you with this short and sweet pair of Caspian Sea Blue.  Theres something romantic about all of that dark floral and lavender and purple!

Now that I have shared all this with you, head over to Old Navy stores and check out all these styles in person!  If you can't believe I got these shorts for FREE check out www.Crowdtap.com and become a member and make a difference with your opinions!!

Crowdtap Old Navy Bundle Up Bash!!!

I've enjoyed another Old Navy party!!!  Same info as before:  "I belong to an online group called Crowdtap.  Please read more information about it here: Crowdtap  One of the great things about it, you give your opinion, answer questions, participate in discussions, and then you raise money for charities.  I picked the Nature Conservatory.  There are about 5 options, all good choices of course!  :)

This one was for a Women's Winter Pant, Winter Sweater, and Winter Accessory!  AND I got to invite 3 friends with me :)  I invited my sister, Liz, my coworker Marchelle, and her daughter Toni.  It was a good time :)

me with the new jeans and new shirt!

We met early on Sunday December 11th at Old Navy.  None of us were all that awake yet (mostly me...not a morning person at all!), but we still made it work to check out everything in the store and try on some fun stuff!

Liz

We started out in the jeans section, they have some nice selections now!  Colored jeans, I found some pretty reds!  Too bad none my size.  I ended up buying a (super soft) pair of blue Rockstar Super Skinny jeans!  I already have a pair in black that I love to wear, and these looked super cute!  I didn't even realize what they were when I picked them up!  These are great for wearing with boots or flats, so thats what I am doing this winter!  Now I have 3 pairs (of ON jeans) that look great with my boots :)


This is my sister in a nice red sweater and black cords!  Very nice. I didn't even know there were corduroys at Old Navy.

Marchelle

Marchelle's daughters

This is my friend playing around with the cart.  I thought it looked funny.   Now she just looks crazy :-P


Her daughters joined us for the day.  Her little girl is all dressed up in the cutest pink jacket!  And some nice fleece hat and scarf!






Her oldest daughter and I tried on the same sweater.  We both agreed the grey version looks the best!

Marchelle bought the teal sweater

Liz got this whole comfy outfit :)

I guess I don't have any other photos with me.  Oh well, this is my sister -->
in what she got.  Loves her fleece scarf!  Very warm.






<---Marchelle got the teal sweater and it looks great!














We had so much fun and I am really looking forward to another party!!!  

Old Navy Sample Share: Active Wear!

Same Intro Info as before, incase you missed my Sample Share: Jeans post:  "I belong to an online group called Crowdtap.  Please read more information about it here: Crowdtap  One of the great things about it, you give your opinion, answer questions, participate in discussions, and then you raise money for charities.  I picked the Nature Conservatory.  There are about 5 options, all good choices of course!  :)

So same thing applies, except this was for Old Navy Active wear Sample Share!  The coupon was for 1 paid of Active wear pants and 1 Compression Top, which was later changed to include ANY Active wear top!  Works out great for me, I LUV jackets!

I was so excited for this one (of course I love my jeans!), but this time, I was really excited to grab a new pair of knit black pants.  If you've been following along, you know for my job I need to wear all black.  So I bought a cheapo pair of yoga pants at Meijers for $14, they are pretty thin and the tag fell off after 2 washes!

Luckily, my new Active wear pants are thicker, which is nice because its quite chilly and drafty right now at work!  I like that they are a thicker material, but I'm not going to get sweaty in them.  Its a nice knit fabric that stretches with me and was a great fit for the massage I gave this past weekend!  I'm so happy to have this pair to add to my work clothes!  Which at times...is a workout!

I LOVE MY JACKET!  OMG, it is soooo incredibly soft and warm!  It has the thumb holes which are proving to be really comfortable and useful in several ways!  I don't know what the true point of them is, whats their real function?  However, I'm loving that I can carry something cold (like a drink) and my whole hand isn't icy!

I don't have as many photos as I did for the jeans, but I think you will still be able to tell how comfy I am in the clothes!

Activewear Pants

Activewear Jacket  .....Having a hard time locating the proper jacket...we were told anything in the Active section was ok to choose....Ooops....I picked a Performance Fleece Jacket....it was in the same section and it said Active wear!!!

My sister picked: Pants and Jacket    (She loves to cozy up in fleece!)

^Not entirely sure why I was posing like this.  But as you can see, theres the lines of the fabric stitches up the sides.  Feels pretty cool, plus makes my butt look nice :)

And also, what I was wearing for work that morning!

Just so you can see the whole outfit together!

Hopefully this is making you all want to go shop at Old Navy!  I'm really pumped to see the sweaters they are going to bring out this year!

I'm posting the photos after the links!  I also went back, and got another pair!  I couldn't help myself!

I picked up the Sweetheart Skinny in the dark wash: Sweetheart Skinny

It fits great.  I will have to find photos showing me wearing my pretty flats with them!  I can't wait to find a pair of boots to go with them for the winter!

I went back for the Rock Star Super Skinny in black.  I thought I would need the Long size because the first time I tried it on they were too short.  Well this time they were just perfect!  Rock Star Super Skinny

Be on the lookout for me wearing these jeans in the future!  I was in Chicago for a few days and wore the Rock Stars out to a bar, but failed to get a photo.  I will try to remake the look for your guys!

These are my silver flats, my faves and now they go fantastic with my new skinny jeans!!!

Yes, this is me posing.  Trying to show off how good these skinny's fit me!  They feel so great on too!

This is supposed to be my "recreated" photo.  This is basically what I was wearing when I was at the bar.  Minus a different tank.  I'll try that out later and maybe post again!

I cut my head off on purpose, the face I was making was not pretty!  But like before, these jeans fit like a comfy glove!

Sorry its dark, the flash and light were on!

 Hopefully this is making you all want to go shop at Old Navy!  I know I want to go back, their tanks were on clearance when I was there last!
