I feel a little like Darrel Waltrip. In case you don’t know who that is, he was a Nascar driver, and now he is an announcer for Nascar. Anyway, right before the race starts, he always says, “let’s go racing, boys!” The reason that I feel like Darrel Waltrip is because it is time to, “let’s go shopping, gurls!” Over 40 Fashion Blogger, Tania Stephens, is wearing a black tee, and a leopard print handbag,

  I went shopping in a store instead of my usual online shopping. And, what is even more amazing than that…I actually tried on the clothing while I was in the store. That is very unusual, and I hardly ever will do that. I don’t like the hot, sweaty mess that I end up looking like after I have tugged and pulled clothing over my head, and my makeup and hair look a wreck once I emerge from the dressing rooms. However, I decided to do an Inside The Dressing room today with Old Navy.

But, before I tell you about all of the clothing that I tried on at Old Navy, let me give you the deets about my shopping outfit. I’ve been getting messages about this look since I posted it on Instagram earlier, so here is what I am wearing. Marilyn Straight leg jeans (sized down to an 8) // Navy t-shirt (large) // Belt (similar, similar, similar) // Handbag (bought on NSale)

  The first outfit, a floral print long sleeve top and a pair of bourbon-colored chinos. This is a great fall outfit all on its own, or it would look great with a blue jeans jacket or a navy cardigan.

Here is a close-up view of the navy floral top. You can see the split neck and the tiny ruffle around the neck. I love the split neck style since it opens up the collar and shows more skin. This elongates the neck for a flattering look. I am wearing a medium, and I think that it fits fine.

This was not an easy shot to get, but I wanted to show you the length of the top.

Here are the bourbon-colored chinos. This is a great color for fall, and it will look great with a lot of colors. The relaxed fit of these chinos is nice but not saggy. I am wearing my usual size 10, and they fit great. The cuffs were already rolled, and the inseam is 32″.

These are high-waisted, and I love the side panel (I didn’t get a photo of it), which is a nice detail. Be sure to check out the other colors, too; I love the Mythical and the Arboretum.

The next outfit is a dress. It has been a while since I styled a dress, and since I loved the colors in this one, I thought I would style this for all of you. This dress has a slight puff sleeve which is very much in style right now.

This dress is so pretty, but I am still trying to get used to the tiered look. They are supposed to be large and oversized, which is so different from what I am used to. I am wearing a large, which would be my usual size.

Adding a jacket, blazer, or cardigan can keep the dress from looking so oversized.

I chose to add this cropped medium-color jean jacket. Above is with the jacket left open, and below is the look with the jacket buttoned.

I am wearing a medium in the jacket, and it is plenty roomy.

This Coffee Weather sweatshirt falls under the too stinking cute category! This shirt did come home with me. Lol! It is super soft, and I love the light-dusted chocolate color of the shirt. I bought a large one because I want it to fit oversized.

These mid-rise boyfriend straight-leg jeans are also pretty dang cute. I love the frayed, cut-off hemline, and the jeans have that worn-in look.

I am wearing my usual size 10 in the jeans. They are boyfriend cut, so they are relaxed and loose-fitting, but that is the style.

Over 40 Fashion Blogger, Tania Stephens, is wearing a dusty chocolate colored cardigan, rolled chinos, a black henley, and holding a red phone

I really like this outfit. The colors all go great together, and they look like fall! The shaker-stitch cardigan is a fabulous color called Chai Latte. I should have known that I would love this sweater since a Chai Latte is my favorite thing to get at Starbucks. I thought that the cardigan ran large, so I ended up with a size small, and I think it looks great. If you want an oversized look, then get your normal size.

BTW, the sweater comes in every color that you will need for the coming fall. Now, on to the black henley tee that I am wearing. I love a henley tee, although I have no idea why. This short sleeve tee is somewhat oversized, and I am wearing a size medium.

I love these chinos! The color is throwing me though, I thought these were a light olive color, and I am beginning to think they are the Arboretum color. They didn’t have my size in the store, so I sized up one size for the photo. They are a little big on me, so I think that my usual size 10 would have fit great.

Over 40 Fashion Blogger, Tania Stephens, is wearing a striped tee, rolled chinos, and holding a red phone

The chinos are a great neutral, and they will go with a lot of other things this fall. I decided to find a few other shirts to style with them as an example.

This striped v-neck tee is cute, and the Chai Latte cardigan would have also looked great with it. The tee has a couple of different colors in the stripe, and they all kind of blend together nicely. I am wearing a large in the tee.

Over 40 Fashion Blogger, Tania Stephens, is wearing a charcoal floral tee, rolled chinos, a denim jacket, and holding a red phone

Here is another outfit using a jean jacket. I love a denim jacket, and I think that everyone needs at least one. This one is a lighter medium-color jacket in a classic style. I love how it fits and how it looked, and if I didn’t already have about 4 denim jackets, this one would have come home with me. I am wearing a medium.

I really like this outfit also. It is a great casual fall outfit, and the pieces can each be worn with lots of other clothing.

This Floral Moon slub-knit tee grabbed my attention. The dark charcoal background really makes the graphic print stand out. I kept walking by this tee, and it kept calling me back. Lol. Finally, I decided to try it on and was surprised at how much I liked it. I always get large in tees, and I think this tee fits great.

I went back to the dressing room and grabbed the Bourbon-colored chinos because of the flower on the shirt. See how the pants and the tee seem to go together?

    When will they have a RF special like that one again? Thanks

    1. Tammy, I am never sure when they will have a special, or what the special will be. I assume that they will have something around Black Friday, but I don’t know that for sure.

  2. Elizabeth Vitullo says:

    Love all these casual looks on you! Did you think the bourbon- colored chinos seemed too big in the legs on you? Good problem to have, lol. I recently ordered the black and floral tshirt and boyfriend jeans. Seeing you in the coffee sweatshirt made me order one too. ON is so easy- delivery or they text you for store pickup when the order is ready.

  3. The dress with the denim jacket is my favorite on you! Beautiful dress. Thanks for taking the time to do a dressing room try-on for us.

  4. I love the way the dress looks on you, especially with the denim jacket, which just changes the whole look and bumps it up to be more current and edgy. I’ve been thinking about buying the boyfriend jeans for awhile now, and I’m definitely going to try them on after seeing how they look on you. Thank you for the hard work in putting all the outfits together, and I agree with you that it’s a real jungle out there in that dressing room!

  5. Love the try-ons! I don’t have much luck at ON unless I see it on you (or one of your blogger friends) first!
    I have a bag with the bourbon chinos, the arboretum ones, and some green utility pants (30% off). I haven’t pulled the trigger yet, but I may tomorrow.
    Thanks for sweating for us!

  6. Love, love, love Old Navy! And thanks for showing us some of the new fall stuff.

  7. Hello I‘m so glad I found you on Pinterest. I wanted to place an order. How do I do that so you get credit?

    1. Manda, you are too sweet! Anytime that you click on one of my highlighted links to make a purchase, then I get the credit for sending you to that store. The prices are the exact same, but the store will pay me a small commission for sending you there to make your purchases.

  8. Arboretum color is primarily a color from Green color family. It is a mixture of green and cyan color. There. Fixed that for you. LOL.
    I have these bourbon jeans. GV calls them Aztec gold, Go so good with everything. Off to get the graphic tee. I have charcoal pants. A two fer for me.

    1. KIMBERLEE says:

      You look great in everything! Thanks for the fall inspiration! I ordered the shaker cardigan last week (it’s not here yet) but now I know it will be too big! I get so frustrated with sizing when ordering online!

  9. Ginger Hiller says:

    Great minds think alike! I have the Coffee Weather sweatshirt and the dark grey tee with the half moon and flowers on it and love them both. ON is one of my go-to stores for purchasing on trend items without breaking the bank. I have an ON dress that I haven’t worn because I can’t find a half slip that fits and I like. One of these days I will find one. I hope that you are having a great day!

  10. Susan Stancliff says:

    I love the cardigan. And the Chinos and I bought the bourbon pair. Thanks for the try on session

  11. sandie Errington says:

    Hello, I follow your posts from the UK and love your look. I have managed to order a couple of things from the States but can never get the discount, which is a shame but wouldn’t stop me buying what I love. I look for your post each morning and it puts a smile on my face, thank you, nice to have someone give advise to us ladies that are no longer 21!!!!

  12. Thanks for mixing and matching the outfits! I loved the try on session.

  13. You look great. What are you doing to lose weight. Please tell us.

  14. krista rogers says:

    I love that you shop a variety of places and a variety of price points. I think good shopping is inclusive of all places regardless of price.

    One note: I dont know if it’s just me or happening for others, but on your page and one of the other girls, the nordstrom links dont work.

  15. Tania, you said you have 4 denim jackets. I need a new one and I’m very similar to you in size and coloring. So with that said which is your favorite denim jacket??? Thank for the help.

    1. Thank you for the dressing room sessions! I know the hated feeling of trying on in the DR!! You hooked me up to ON again!! I’d forgotten how cute some of their outfits are! You rock gurl❣️❣️

  16. I love all these looks and really enjoy the dressing room try on sessions. I believe I will be heading to Old Navy soon!

    1. Lol! NO, order online so that I get the credit. Hahaha!

  17. How do you smooth your tops over the button/zipper bump in jeans?

    1. They sometimes will show. But, you can add a layering tank under your shirt to try and smooth out the bump. I do that sometimes too.

  18. Your outfits are beautiful..Whatcis your secret for losing so much weight❤️

    1. Lol! I am using a nutrition coach, but right now we are concentrating on what to eat and how to eat, instead of trying to lose weight.

  19. Carla Pope says:

    Bought the moon tee and denim jacket. Also found a pair of jeans that were high rise (my new fave) instead of the mid rise that you styled. Can’t wait to try them all on when they arrive.

    1. Great, Carla! I hope you like all of your purchases.
