If you are a Old Navy card holder, use code CARD at checkout. If you are not, no worries! I got you girl! All you have to do is text VIP to 653689 to get a coupon code for 50% off. Keep in mind this is a one time use coupon code and is good for TODAY ONLY!

If you are new to shopping at Old Navy, they have sizes for everyone! Most items coming regular, petite and tall as well as plus size and maternity as well. I find that their tops fit true to size but I normally size up in their sweaters and down in the pants. See each item for more specific sizing details!

Without further adieu let’s get this try on haul started!

Old Navy Try On Haul

PLAID SHIRT: I own about 5 of these now. They are great for layering and wearing so many different ways. The best part about these plaid shirts are that they are very lightweight and flexible so the arms roll up easily and knotting/tucking them are easy as well. Come in TONS of colors too. I am wearing an XS regular and it is a longer length than normal.

QUILTED VEST: If you are in the market for a lightweight vest, these come in tons of colors! If you want a thicker, puffier jacket this one is great too.

ANKLE JEANS: Old Navy jeans are usually incredible ill fitting on me but these were AMAZING. Just the right amount of stretch and a decently high waist to suck everything in. Not to mention, they did wonders for the booty. They run true to size. I am wearing a 0 regular. I highly suggest checking out there entire straight jeans collection HERE. Some of my other favorite pairs are here, here and here.

BOOTIES: I loved these so much I ditched my booties to wear these for the entire try on session. They come in 4 colors and I love the idea of a slide on bootie. Nothing beats a throw on and go shoe for all times of the year! They run true to size but if inbetween sizes, size up!

Old Navy Try On Haul

“CHEERS MY DEER” SWEATSHIRT: Cute sweatshirt for the holidays. It is more of a fitted sweatshirt so I suggest sizing up one for a looser fit, or two for an oversized fit!

Old Navy Try On Haul COLORBLOCK SWEATER: I’ve been eyeing this sweater for months! Feels like cashmere but a fraction of the cost. Comes in multiple colors. I suggest sizing up!

Old Navy Try On Haul

SHERPA PULLOVER: While these are called “sherpa” pullovers, they are more like a fuzzy fleece! Very warm and cozy and I liked that these had looser sleeve than most I’ve tried on, bigger pockets, and a different color collar. I suggest sizing up! They come in 4 color options.

Old Navy Try On Haul SHERPA HOODIE: Holy cozy! This hoodie features a front pocket that goes all the way through, a hood, and ribbon ties around the neck. It comes in 3 colors.

TUNIC TEE: One of my favorite pieces I tried on. A great basic to layer under sweaters since it is on the longer side and would look so cute peaking out of the bottom of sweaters. It is long enough to cover your butt if wanting to wear with leggings. Comes in several colors and runs true to size.

BOUCLE SCARF: Softest scarf ever and comes in tons of colors. Each color is marled with specks of other colors as well. Highly suggest this one!

Old Navy Try On Haul

CREW NECK SWEATER: Great option for my working ladies to layer with collared shirts. This specific color combo would be great for the holidays! I personally like my sweaters more fitted for work, even if I plan to layer. In that case, I would say the sweater runs true to size. If you want it a little looser (pictured above), size up! I am wearing a small.

PLAID SHIRT: I own about 5 of these now. They are great for layering and wearing so many different ways. The best part about these plaid shirts are that they are very lightweight and flexible so the arms roll up easily and knotting/tucking them are easy as well. Come in TONS of colors too. I am wearing an XS regular and it is a longer length than normal.

CROPPED FLARE JEANS: These have a button fly and look very similar to Madewell jeans for a fraction of the cost. I thought they ran on the bigger side. I suggest sizing down if inbetween sizes. I would have needed a 00.

RUFFLED SWING DRESS: Perfect for the office or Thanksgiving! Has a looser fit that would fit a bump or food baby:) Runs true to size. If wanting to wear with knee high boots or taller, I suggest getting petite! This same print comes in a few other style dresses. See them below.

ONE // TWO // THREE

SHIRT DRESS: Made of tensel so it is super soft! Runs true to size. I do not suggest getting petite as the particular one runs on the short side. Old Navy’s shirt dress collection is awesome right now and great for the office. My other two favorites are here and here.

ONE // TWO // THREE // FOUR

QUILTED VEST: If you are in the market for a lightweight vest, these come in tons of colors! If you want a thicker, puffier jacket this one is great too.

CARDIGAN: I compared this cardigan to the Barefoot Dreams one and that might have been a bit of a stretch but it is SO soft and stretchy too. It fits a little oversized so I suggest sizing down if inbetween sizes.

SWING DRESS: These swing dresses are great throw on and go dresses. I own several of the striped ones as I love wearing them with sweaters and boots. They run true to size. I’m wearing an XS regular.

LEFT SWEATER (similar): This exact sweater is currently only available in plus size. Grab it here. I’m linking another sweater that would be cute to wear with this dress. When layering over a dress, I suggest sizing up in your sweaters!

RIGHT SWEATER (similar): This exact sweater is sold out. Here is a very similar one. Again, I suggest sizing up if you want to layer over this dress!

LONG LINE MOTO COAT: Comes in grey and black and runs true to size. Although if you plan on wearing more than one layer underneath, I suggest sizing up! Same with the below coats that I personally own and have been top sellers for the blog! Grab them HERE.

SHERPA DENIM JACKET: I’ve seen so many jacket like this on the market right now, but this one arguably tops them all and is much less than others I have seen. Runs on the smaller side (suggest sizing up) and also comes in black.

LONG CARDIGAN: Comes in two beautiful colors and is a thick material, more like a sweater than a cardigan. Runs a little oversized so if in between sizes, size down.

CARDI COAT: Looks like a coat but is made out of a thick sweater material making it feel more like a cardigan. Comes in two gorgeous, neutral colors and is a decent sized weight. Runs a bit oversized so if you are in between sizes, size down!

HOLIDAY PAJAMAS

*Friendly PSA: most of these styles sold out before Black Friday last year so if you are wanting a pair of holiday pajamas, I highly suggest grabbing them now as these are the lowest price I expect them to be and sizes are still fully stocked!*

ONESIE: Comes in two patterns (this one and a buffalo plaid). These were the first thing to sell out last year. Attaching a picture below of my sisters and I in the buffalo plaid last year. They run true to size. If wanting a looser fit, size up!

MIX AND MATCH PJ’S: There are TONS of pajama tops that you can mix and match. They have thermals, flannels, graphic tees and more! I love that the pajama tops are so festive that they can be worn out in public too and nobody would know that they are pajamas 😉 Keep in mind the thermal run very small. I suggest sizing up a size in tops and bottoms and possibly sizing up 2 in the top if you want to wear them out in public! Graphic tees and flannels run true to size although I normally size up in the graphic tees so that I can knot/tuck them if I wear them out of the house!

SHERPA ROBE: Need I say more? Comes in 3 colors and would make the perfect Christmas gift. Check out their great slipper selection too HERE.

As always thank you SO much for shopping through my links. I know it’s an extra step for you but it makes a world of difference for me! If you want to check out some more of my Old Navy picks, look HERE.

LOFT + Abercrombie Try On Session

October 18, 2018

So many sales, so little time! I normally share the bulk of sale try ons over on the ‘gram but since there are SO many good pieces on major discount right now, I wanted to share some of my favorites along with a little more information on material, sizing and fit.

LOFT is having 40% off your entire purchase with code FRIENDS and Abercrombie is having 30% off your entire purchase with code 11728.

For sizing reference I am typically an XS in tops and 00 in pants. In LOFT I wear an XS in tops, S in sweaters and size 24 in pants. LOFT’s bottoms always run big so I suggest sizing down unless I say otherwise. In Abercrombie, I wear an XS in tops/sweaters and a 25 in jeans.
