It's Tee Time at Old Navy!



It's Tee Time at Old Navy!

So as everyone knows, I'm obsessed with Old Navy's Basic Layering Tops, they're the best thing lineup of clothing to ever hit the racks- seriously!  I think I own pretty much every color from each style (Vintage & Perfect!)  Anyhow, as a lucky member of the stylish and influential Old Navy Style Council I was chosen to sample & share their "Women's Best Tee", two tees for me and two tees for a friend.  This is the coupon they sent me, it's always super excited when I get one of these coupons in the mail... 







Alright you guys, so Old Navy's tee's have been improved (and the improvements are remarkable!) and they're available in both "Perfect" & "Vintage".  So here's the scoop on "Vintage Tees and Perfect Tees"...

Perfect
~A universally flattering fit
~Classic Ribbed Knit
~Now come with added stretch

Vintage
~Old Navy's most relaxed fit
~are "Heathered" for a worn-in look & feel
~Super soft 




My favorite (if I have to choose) is the Vintage line...the Vintage Crew-Neck, and the Vintage V-Neck are staples in my closet...I literally own every color from both collections. It's safe to say that I'm obsessed.

This is the Vintage Crew-Neck...
~rib-knit crewneck
~short sleeves
~tag-free for added comfort
~soft, medium-weight jersey
~heathered for a worn-in look
~super soft



 This is the Vintage V-Neck...
~rib-knit v-neckline
~short sleeves
~soft, lightweight jersey knit
~tag-free for added comfort




Here are my two Vintage Perfect Tees...




Here I took a close-up of the material, to show the "heathered" look up-close.  It's really got a "worn-in" feel and look to it that I absolutely LOVE!



 Here's a (not-so-great) photo of me post-shopping after my sister & I arrived back home.  I love the charcoal colored tee, it will virtually go with any bottoms...dress it up or down. Love it.



My sister had a great time, and as always the store associates rocked.  Love Old Navy for so many reasons, these Perfect Tees being of them.  If you haven't checked them out...do so, now!  It's the perfect weather for these too!  And the best part? You can wear them all year round, with cardigans and hoodies from Old Navy also...so versatile!


Disclosure: As a member of Crowdtap and the Old Navy Style Council, I received a coupon for me and a friend to get two free "Women's Best Tees" from Old Navy.  All opinions expressed are my own.

WooliteWashed In-Home Boutique!

My WooliteWashed In-Home Boutique was so much fun!






Most recently I was chosen to host a "WooliteWashed In-Home Boutique" party courtesy of Crowdtap.  For this party, they sent me:

~10 Woolite Samples
~A Party Booklet
~Gift Card for buying party supplies



The plan was to gather my friends and their gently used wardrobe pieces that they no longer wear and have a sort of swapping party.  You know that old saying "One man's trash is another man's treasure"...this is a bit like that only no women thinks her clothes or accessories are trash, we simply get board of them or they no longer fit us right ;)  Anyhow, each of my friends brought a few articles of clothing as well as a few accessories- some brought earrings, some scarves, shirts, necklaces, the variety was great! 


  Oh and most of them even brought their husbands...not to trade, just so they could keep mine company during our party haha!  It really was a great time.  I had a nice turn out, and we had quite a bit of clothes to dig through!  I had things hung up by size. 





After the girls tried tried on their stack of items they would toss them onto the shelf...at one point it looked pretty crazy, and I did get a photo of how messy things got!  You know how girls are when we try on clothes to find the "one outfit"...things pile up fast!  


We had a huge mirror set up so we could do a catwalk and everyone was taking photos with their cell phones- it was quite the party.   

I served finger foods...veggie pizza, little weenies, and sangrias.  It was awesome!  At the end of the day, I ended up with 2 new dresses (old to them, NEW to me :)  a nice handful of jewelry, and a few shirts!  My brother even swapped out some of his ex's clothes and jewelry hahahahaha...got his new girlfriends some cute new stuff- as I'm sure she's going to appreciate this stuff more than she was appreciating his ex's old stuff laying around his house ;)  


This was one of the most fun parties I've thrown...it lasted well past the time I had planned for it to, and everyone who left couldn't believe the stuff they were walking out with.  Everyone loves their samples, and loved that they get to go home and use them on their new stuff.  Awesome party, definitely.  LOVE LOVE LOVE Woolite...was so glad to host this.  Epic.



"A big thanks to Crowdtap and Woolite for choosing me to be one of their Wooliteers.  Also for providing me with the samples to try for myself as well as all of my friends who attended my party, free of charge.  I was given the samples and gift card by Crowdtap, to spread the word about Woolite and their wonderful line of product. All of the photos and thoughts shared are my own."
