Online Shopping at Old Navy

I find myself doing more and more shopping online these days. It may be because it’s becoming more common, but for me it’s almost a necessity. Between school drop offs, sports practice, games, PTO, exercise, nap schedule, laundry, cooking and cleaning who has time! Now don’t get me wrong I love a leisurely stroll through Target with Starbucks in hand as much as the next momma. I just don’t always have time.

I recently ordered a few things from Old Navy. I love old navy, the price point is fantastic, they keep up with styles and trends, they lean a bit conservative in their lengths and cuts which fit my style to a tee. One big benefit for me is when I shop online I can order Tall versions of their everyday styles. This is such a great option for me. I’m not super tall, but at 5’ 10’’, a lot of standard dresses and jeans just are not sized right for me. Old Navy gives me the option to have cute on trend styles, that fit for a reasonable price. Win!  One other thing I love about retailers like Target & Old Navy, I can order online and return to store... which relieves a huge headache!

I had a great experience at my local old navy today. I needed to return two items. Another of my order I’m on the fence about, it’s a bit tighter than I would like, so I wanted to order the next size up in Tall. Did you know if you order in store to be delivered to your house their is no shipping costs... it doesn’t matter how small your order.  Today, the dress I wanted in the next size up was on sale for $7.99. They are shipping it to me for free! I love when stores are customer centric.

Here are some stock photos of the pieces I decided to keep from Old Navy.


I already have a pair of these pull on rockstar jeans in a different wash & detail. I love them they are flattering and very comfortable. They have a paneled waistband that holds that area in. They are a ‘look for less’ version of the Spanx jeans. I ordered the Spanx jeans on Black Friday. I was so excited... if I’m being honest I didn’t LOVE them. If I’m going to pay $100+ for jeans... I need to love them. I ended up returning them. I know this is heresy in the blogging world... but they just weren’t right for me. These are a good alternative for less than a 1/3 of the price. I ordered the tall version of these. It’s a real win for me to order online and a very wallet friendly price point.

I saw this tee shirt dress and had to have it. Simple black with classic lines is right up my alley. I ordered this dress in Tall. A lot of my height is in my legs, I find it difficult to find dresses that are appropriate and practical length for me. I need something I can pick up my kiddo in with showing my tush to the world.  And let’s just be honest, I’m not 25 any more. When the dress arrived I could wait to try it, I ordered my usual size and it’s a bit trimmer cut than I expected. It fit, but I was concerned that it might shrink. I had to return a few other things in store, so while I was there I had them order the next size up and ship it to my house. Bonus, it was even more on sale! Long story short, I ended up keeping the larger size. I plan to pair it with leopard accessories to jazz it up a bit. I ended up paying under $10 for this dress!!!!

These motto jeggings are so cute, comfy and flattering! They are high waisted and hold the mummy tummy in. The motto details give them an edge and a fancier look for everyday wear. They are thick enough that I didn’t have to worry about panty lines. Winner. These are going in my regular rotation immediately!!!

Monday Must Have - - - Closet Clothing Dividers for Kids

Mom's Take back your morning!!!! If you are like me and have multiple school age children, mornings can be stressful and time consuming.  The fight about clothes and hurrying to get dressed in the morning can be endless and infuriating.  I envy those of you whose children wear uniforms to school.  But regardless of if they wear everyday clothes or uniforms this method is priceless. This also allows momma to see if everything they need for the week is clean and ready.  I also hang practice clothes or jersey's with the day of the week of the game etc. I started this when my oldest was in preschool.  It allows us organization and frees our mornings up.  When I started doing this, I used a hanging sweater organizer.  This was a good fit for the closet at the time and it worked for our space.  Now, my oldest two children share a room and closet, so this method works better for us. I ordered colorful set of clothing organizers from Amazon . ...

Boundaries - - - Time for Childhood

Boundaries is a tricky subject matter. I think some people have a natural propensity for strong boundaries in their lives and some people have to work harder to establish them. When I say boundaries, I am specifically talking about ones ability to establish specific limits and guidelines for certain relationships and activities. I have a natural ability for well established boundaries. Many times friends and acquaintances have come to me seeking advice & recommendation on improving this area. I definitely don't say this to toot my own horn, but to share with you what I know about my successes and areas I still need to work on. One of the reasons boundary discussion can be complicated is that there are so many facets; emotional boundaries, physical boundaries, relationships boundaries & time boundaries... just to name a few. I could write an entire blog post on each facet of boundaries. And maybe I will get to all the points eventually. When you are a momma you ...

Cheeseburger Bowls

New Recipe! Trying to get back on track with eating. I’ve been like a 12 year old in the gas station market since school has been out! I’m attempting to be more carb conscious again. So I thought I’d work up a new summer recipe. What says summer more than burgers?!? You can certainly go the more traditional route and just 86 the bun or wrap it in lettuce. I wanted something even easier and more time friendly. I notice in summer it becomes a buffet at dinner... eating between sports, activities etc. So being able to make a plate as you need is ideal. Ingredients: Ground beef (I used a pound...easy to adjust for more or less) Season beef with: garlic salt, pepper, onion powder and a couple of splashes of Worcestershire sauce Chopped Iceberg Lettuce Chopped Pickles Chopped Tomatoes Shredded Cheese (Chopped Onions would also be great... but my crew isn’t a big fan) Sesame Seeds *Really any toppings you love on top of a burger would be absolutely great! That is why ...
