T-Shirt Rant

On my way out to Target (where I bought much better t-shirts than what Old Navy sells anymore).

T-Shirt - Old Navy
Jeans - Old Navy
Flip-Flops - Old Navy
Purse - Dooney & Bourke


Can I complain about Old Navy for a minute? I have a couple drawers filled with their basic short- and long-sleeved t-shirts. I pick up a few new ones every year, as old ones get retired and they come out with new colors. The original shirts I started buying several years ago were excellent. They were long enough, a good weight, and fit really nicely, with the right amount of stretch to them, etc. This year's shirts, both long- and short-sleeved, have been terrible. They are very thin fabric, the sleeves (on the short-sleeved ones) are much shorter, and the necklines are so low they are almost unfit to wear in public. Case in point: today's outfit. This shirt really needs something under it, and if I wear it again there will be a camisole under there. Of course, the last thing I want to do in the summer is add another layer, so these might be retired until the early fall.

On the Go

This was my day to work from home, but I did have some places to go (met a friend for lunch, and went to band practice in the evening), so I couldn't just stay in my pajamas all day.


Shirt - Modbe
Hoodie - Modbe
Jeans - Old Navy
Sneakers - New Balance
Purse - Dooney & Bourke


Why do I have so much clothing from Modbe, if I am neither modest nor Mormon? I don't know, but this is my favorite hoodie ever (and everyone else who sees it wants one too). Love that it zips from the top down and the bottom up, and the thumb holes in the sleeves are great.

Sorry for the creepy looking eyes, it was a bad attempt at red-eye removal. But how about a pat on the back for a cropped photo taken in a clean room?!
