Old Navy getting revamped?

[aldn]

i have. i feel it's the same mix though. which is a good thing to me cause i love gap. i don't like that they took xxl away from men though in store.

^ Have you read the Gap article in US Vogue?

Which issue, izzie? I'm interested.

^ Vogue May '08, with Paltrow ruining the cover, and Coco's amazing superhero ed in it.

It's called "Minding the Gap," page 276: "With designer Patrick Robinson at its helm, America's most iconic megafashion brand has the highest hopes of becoming something to believe in again. Sarah Mower reports."

I'm pretty sure it was scanned in the Vogue US May thread.

^ Thank you. Shows how behind I am with my mags...

 

[izzie stevens]

^ No problem!

I went to a mall down south in my town and where the Old Navy used to be is now a glow-in-the-dark mini golf course.

Re-vamped? I think so.

so i went to ON this weekend to get the oversized cardigans that just came in and the orange dress posted 2 pgs back was in stores! i was so excited, but up close it was unattractive and ill fitting the only other thing i saw that was posted in the group of pics 2 pgs ago that was okay looking was the navy paisley print dress. what a let down! i got 2 cardigans though so i guess that was okay.

the blue paisley dress at my store is just about gone. my co workers are going gah gah over the collection. we have some really cute guy stuff too.

Their jeans never fit right for me. Some problem around the waist and hips. I talked to another petite girl and she had the same problem as me with their jeans.

 

[Erin]

^ Yes, I can't wear Old Navy jeans. Gap, neither. Sometimes Banana Republic, though I find that the sizing varies.

I wonder how comfortable these are... ...but some of their new shoes are really not bad at all.

Women's Bauble T-Strap Pumps 34.50$ (remind me of Marc by Marc Jacobs)

Faux Croc ballet flats 24.50$ in really sweet colors

Ankle Strap Sandals 19.50$

I love those flats in the blackish-gray and yellowish-gold
Their shoes are usually pretty comfy. I wear their flip flops to festivals, but my dog eats them, at least those are the only shoes of mine she likes, the cheapest ones!

i love their flats there, they look so cute but everytime ive went they have felt really uncomfy

Old Navy has had some really cute things since 2005 at least, I wouldn't say this is anything new. I don't shop there anymore and haven't been paying any attention, but looking at their website now, I would say they've gotten worse.

Granted, I was fifteen in 2005; but I just recently looked at some Old Navy things I still have, and they really are nice, not just things a fifteen-year-old would think are cute.

old navy is also coming out with bauble strap colored flats which are a DIRECT ripoff of the marc flats for 34.50.

 

[princessaud]

hows the fit for their polo tees?

The guy stuff never changes...

They have knockoffs of the J.Crew ruffle cardigan right now, if you weren't able to find the J.Crew one.

Plus FF is this weekend. I have a few basics in my cart ready to go.

 

[couturecouture]

I haven't shopped at Old Navy in years, but the Faux Croc ballet flats look really cute. I think I have tried on shoes there before and didn't find them comfortable, but they are still cute.

Last season, and I may have mentioned this earlier, I bought this super cute cropped pea coat for $12 on clearance. I love it.
