I've talked about Crowdtap on my blog before and being a part of the Old Navy Style Council. This was my first time every trying on Old Navy activewear and probably the first time I've ever gone shopping for workout clothing exclusively. It was so much fun to try on clothes and see all the fun products they had in store. It was really busy with Christmas coming up, but I didn't have a problem getting a fitting room. The store was surprisingly well organized and I didn't have a problem finding my size (although there wasn't much available in my size). I had posted on Holly's blog for the giveaway a few pieces I had wanted to check out and they had all 4 pieces available in store in my size. I didn't end up trying on all of them because I didn't like the look of them in store, but I love the pieces I chose. There are a ton of colors available (seriously, I had the hardest time deciding what color shirt to buy!) My only complaint, is that there were more coordinating bottoms and tops. The few pieces I found that did coordinate were on clearance and so I couldn't get them.
The items I tried on in store:
These are the pants I ended up buying, I *loved* them. I share more about them later in the post :) I loved this top too, the color was so bright and fun!
I loved the fit of this v-neck but it was too sheer for me. I'd have to wear a tank underneath it in order to feel comfortable wearing it. One of the darker colors would probably be better, but I wanted a nice bright color :)
I figured these would be my favorite, but I really wasn't happy with the fit. They felt too big and baggy on me. For yoga you'll want loose fitting clothes so it really is perfect for a yoga routine, just wasn't what I was expecting or looking for. I also attempted to try on the Active Compression Leggings in Carbon but I couldn't get my legs in them (I didn't have time to go grab the next size up). I'm sure that's the way they're supposed to fit being the compression-style, just wasn't my style!
What I ended up purchasing:
I fell in love with their bubble tanks, they are the perfect post-pregnancy tops while still being cute and modest. Plus I was able to get the size I normally wear and not have to go up a size because of my chest. Their was a huge variety of colors in store and I had a hard time deciding which one to get. I loved the teal, but they didn't have my size :( As soon as I put these pants on, I knew they were the ones I was getting. I love boot cut for workout pants, I think they look the best for me with tennis shoes (I'm 5'1" so any extra length I can add, I'll take it!) The compression feature sucks everything in and smooths everything out...I love it! I think a pair of their compression capris would have been cute too, I just ran out of time looking and didn't have a chance to try a pair on.

You look great!! Love the ones you picked! And I hope you can find a good routine to get back into working out. I know you hate running, but the Couch to 5K really helped me :) Even though half the time I have to push myself to get out the door, it's worth it lol :)
