Old Navy - watercolor tanks

A big thanks to Nichi who let me know that ON has watercolor tanks. She says,

"I saw these floral tanks on the last trip to Old Navy and thought they were a nice substitute. Not only are the floral ones available in 3 colors, but they are also available in petite sizes (for us little ones) AND if you buy more than one online, they are $5 each."








The tanks are $8.50, or $5/ea if you purchase 2 or more. Today is the last day to save an additional 20% with STUFFSAVE if you have a BR/GAP/ON card. I prefer most BR & ON tanks to J Crew's. The J Crew tanks have easily gotten little holes in them or lost shape while I'm wearing them. Can't say I'm impressed. The upside of J Crew tanks are the colors & that they interchange w/other items in their color palette.

The basic cami retails for $8.50. Select colors are currently $5. I wear one of these a few times/week. They're good to have in black, white, navy, grey and a couple colors to pop under v-neck sweaters. HeidiG loves these, too.



Two more. Boho tank - . I haven't seen these in-person. They might look cartoony, or they might look good. Cartoony could be really cute if you have kids or teach little ones.


Boho tank - $12.50, surfboard yellow - The web description says the boho tanks are "adorned with elegant embroidered accents." This leads me to think there is threading sewn onto the tanks. That would create a different look than a silkscreen print.

Many ON tanks now come in regular, tall & petites. Give ON tanks a try.

  1. I have one of the the watercolor tanks from LAST summer. I got it for like $2-it was awesome! Anyway, I really like it as a quick throw-on top that adds some color to an outfit.

  2. Thanks for the recs, I just ordered some of those camis for layering. With the 20% off, they're ridiculously cheap.

    Also, to note: today's the last day for the ON coupon "FREE50" - good for free shipping for $50+ (think you also need to use the ON/GAP/BR card).

  3. Oh pretty! Too bad I start the shopping ban tomorrow, otherwise I would just have to pick one up!

  4. Thanks for the info - and for the shout out. I just got a gray/white striped ON tank the last time I was there. Yes, I am branching out. :) Even though I am not a big print person, I do love the graphic tees, so I think these would be fun to try.

    ps - my word verification is "zoingsf" - I think I read that in a Dr Seuss book once.

  5. I came home from ON with the black floral in a size Medium and thought it was a bit too long. I ordered the Medium petite online to get a shorter version.

    It came today and it was 2 inches LONGER than the regular. I've had this happen before with ON petite tees, so I called and had them send me out new ones. Hopefully these will work better.

  6. I was in ON today, and they had more of the Boho tanks, with small-ish embroidered designs on the chest (not these big designs). They were pretty, but they had a "baggy" look, like they would have to be worn over another tank, I guess. I didn't have time to try one on, but I did like them.

  7. New to reading your blog but thus far I'm addicted! Have you tried on the JCrew Perfect Fit tanks Item # 92908? I know you mentioned you like BR/ON tanks vs JCrew but wanted to know your opinion about sizes since I don't have a store nearby.

    What sizes do you wear in each? JCrew, ON and BR?
