So I was chosen to do another Old Navy Sample Share as part of the Old Navy Style Council via Crowdtap. The coupons were for 2 FREE Women's Best Tees for me and 2 FREE Women's Best Tees for a friend.
Usually I choose who I take with me by their "need" for the item, and since this sample share was for tees it seemed like everyone was in need new tees. So I did the "logical" thing... I decided to picked 3 people and we'd all get 1 FREE tee. I chose my trusty side kick, the BFF Karie, my sister (still rebuilding her closet since gaining some much needed weight from when she stopped smoking) and my niece who was pregnant. It pretty much worked out well because Karie was more available for shopping/photo time, while my sister & niece weren't. My sister was in a pretty bad car accident (a couple weeks before the coupons were active) where she fractured a vertebrae in her back & messed up her ribs and my niece was about to give birth (she had the baby about a week prior to the coupon's expiring).
It wasn't the best timing for a sample share ever, nor did I necessarily pick the "best" candidates to go shopping, but they all deserved a new tee and it all worked out.
Of course the day Karie and I went shopping was the day that the Old Navy we went to was PACKED. Like a crazy, insane, madhouse of activity. The shelves were a mess, there wasn't many choices size-wise and we waited in line to try things on for 20 - 30 minutes each the two times we dared to go to the dressing rooms. We did the best we could with what we had and both ended up with a shirt we liked.
My sister, Georgie, was set to meet me after work to get her & my nieces tees on the last day before the coupon expired but had to opt out because her back was bothering her too badly so she sent my niece to stop by & gab them instead. Between the new baby (my great nephew Hunter... who is a complete stud!) and her husband being in town for "maternity leave" (he's in the Navy) she didn't have a lot of time but we managed to find a shirt she liked and between the two of us figured out what size, style & color to get my sister. And as a bonus Elizabeth was kind enough to throw on her shirt (over her clothes) and let me snap a picture of her in the parking lot of her in her new shirt.
We got my sister a Perfect Henley, as well, but in Sea Turtle. Although I don't have a photo of her in her's... she loves it.
I think the Perfect Henley's are my favorite Old Navy tee. I have a lot of their Henley tanks (which I can't find on their website). I guess there's just something about little buttons that make them stand out more. So cute!
For the BEST Tee sample share we had the Perfect Tees and the Vintage style (no prints) tees to choose from. The sizing on the Vintage was a bit off (at least for my...unique frame) and there wasn't a lot of the crew/v-neck Perfect tees in my size to try on. Here are some of the tees Karie & I tried on but didn't choose...
I think it's hilarious how differen't the EXACT same shirt looks on both Karie & I.
Oh, and BONUS photo of Hunter...

Thanks Laura! Taking pictures in dressing rooms & in clothing I'm not particularly loving is not my favorite part of doing sample shares on Crowdtap. =)
