OLD NAVY
Old navy has great pieces for a spring and summer capsule wardrobe! I am a size 12 and wear a large in all things old navy and here’s what I thought about each item & what I ended up purchasing:
1. White Wide Leg Jeans ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
LOVE these so much! Old Navy has the best wide leg
Jeans. These were a purchase
2. Cardigan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Old Navy also has amazing affordable cardigans
I didn’t have a tan soft knit one so I purchased this
3. Linen Wrap Skirt White ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I loved this skirt but I’m giving the white 3 stars
because it was extremely see through
4. Linen Wrap Skirt Tan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I ended up purchasing the tan because it wasn’t
Transparent, however I liked the white color more for
Spring and summer.
5. Wide Leg Trousers ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I love old navy for trousers and office attire however
I found these ran really tight around the waist and if
I sized up they would have been too big. Love the color
6. Satin MIDI Skirt ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
LOVE!! Super feminine side slit detailing I loved this
piece and ended up purchasing!
7. Pink Cargo Pants ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
LOVE LOVE LOVE! The color just made me so happy but
I didn’t purchase because I mostly wear neutrals and
Wasn’t sure how often I would gravitate towards it
Should I go back and get them?
8. Flowy Maxi Dress ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
LOVE! I have struggled to love myself in dresses since
my weight gain, however I loved how simple yet dainty
and feminine this dress made me feel. I also liked that
the side had a cute detail to it, it made the dress feel
not so plain
Let me know which item was your favorite & if you think I need to go back and get those pink cargo shorts!!

After my latest Old Navy try-on, I truly believe it's a go-to for building a practical and stylish capsule wardrobe, especially for women like me in mid-sizes. It’s not just about finding individual pieces; it's about evaluating how Old Navy, as a company, consistently offers items that fit seamlessly into a mix-and-match philosophy, making getting dressed so much easier. When curating a capsule wardrobe, versatility is key. Old Navy excels at providing those foundational items that can be dressed up or down, and their seasonal collections always have fresh takes on classics. For example, the wide-leg jeans I found are a perfect example. They're comfortable enough for everyday wear, but pair them with a chic top and a cardigan – like the soft knit one I picked up – and you’re ready for a casual evening out. Similarly, the satin MIDI skirt with its split hem is a showstopper that can go from a brunch date to a more formal event with just a change of accessories. These are the kinds of items that make your wardrobe work harder for you. Building a mix-and-match wardrobe means selecting pieces that complement each other, allowing you to create numerous outfits from a limited selection. Old Navy’s color palettes, especially their neutrals, are fantastic for this. My tan linen wrap skirt, despite the initial transparency issue with the white version, is incredibly versatile for spring and summer. It pairs beautifully with simple tops, giving off effortless, breezy vibes. Even the wide leg trousers I tried, although they ran a bit tight, showed the potential for sophisticated work-to-weekend looks if you find the right fit. Don't be afraid to inject some personality into your capsule, either! I'm still thinking about those pink cargo pants. While I tend to stick to neutrals, a pop of color can truly elevate a capsule, making it more dynamic. A flowy maxi dress, like the one that made me feel so confident, is another excellent capsule addition. Its simple elegance means it can be styled in countless ways, from casual beach days with sandals to more dressed-up occasions with heels and statement jewelry. My personal experience tells me Old Navy is fantastic for those staple items that form the backbone of any great capsule wardrobe. They offer consistent quality and sizing (my usual size 12/L always feels reliable), and their affordable prices mean you can refresh your capsule without breaking the bank. It's about smart shopping and choosing pieces that truly serve multiple purposes in your everyday life, helping you feel put-together and stylish with minimal effort.
