Old Navy Crowdtap Cardi Party!

Over the summer, I was selected for Crowdtap + Old Navy's Hosted Party in which I was to receive coupons for both myself and a friend to purchase bathing suits! Unfortunately, there was an issue with the postal service and I never received the party pack. Luckily, Crowdtap responded back to me and told me I'd be placed on a priority list for the next Old Navy Hosted Party, which happened to be this Cardi Party!



In my Party Kit, I received an information guide as well as coupons to share with three additional friends (including myself!) to purchase one regular priced scarf, skirt, and cardigan!

Our Style Council coupons!
I decided to invite three of my closest friends for a girls night out! We planned that we'd go shopping for new outfits, courtesy of Old Navy, and then go out to dinner.

Everyone came over to my house and we drove to Old Navy together. First we started out with the skirts, as they were the first product we found! Then, we moved onto the cardigans and scarfs.

Megan picked out:
Women's Fold Over Jersey Skirt
Women's Button-Front Stretch Cardis
Scarf


Susana chose:


Women's Jersey Pencil Skirts
Women's Button-Front Stretch Cardis
Scarf






Julie picked:

Women's Pencil Skirt
Women's Button-Front Stretch Cardis
Scarf




And my selections were:

Women's Jersey Maxi Skirt
I had first chosen this skirt and loved it, but when it came time to pay, the coupon didn't apply to this skirt :( I wound up buying it anyway, and using the coupon towards this skirt:
Women's Fold Over Jersey Skirt
Women's Button-Front Stretch Cardis

Scarf
and since we were choosing entire outfits for our dinner, we decided to buy shoes and extra accessories as well! We found a bunch of cute shoes (both flats and boots), as well as handbags and jewelry. I also wound up purchasing a few pairs of brightly colored skinny jeans because I was feeling adventurous!

In regards to the cardigan/scarf/skirt selections, we weren't too pleased. There were only four types of skirts in the entire store (the fold over jersey skirt, the pencil skirt, a cord skirt, and the maxi skirt which wasn't eligible for the coupon). The cardigan selection was also pretty small. Although there were a ton of varieties in color/print, there was only one style in the store (the cardigans themselves are really nice and soft though). The scarf selection was humongous, though! There was everything from sheer types, to more full/fluffy kinds in a huge variety of colors and prints.

The first employee I told about the Cardi Party from the Old Navy Style Council had never heard about the program. The cashier was extremely surprised at our savings!


Thanks again to my friends for coming along, and to Crowdtap and Old Navy for allowing us to have this awesome girls night out!
