Old Navy Trapeze Tank Top

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

A few weeks ago I picked up two Old Navy Trapeze Tank Tops. It is super comfortable, thin but not too thin, and its a perfect length for me. It ends right past my belly. I dont generally like things that fall mid belly or too far past by belly. The way it gathers at the top, combined with the slight v-neck makes for an attractive cut but not over the top with cleavage. I have worn them alone with a strapless bra, and under other shirts with a bra. Both ways work well.

I was surprised to find that I fit into the XL. I've noticed that a lot of their cotton/stretch type tops fit me in both XL and XXL sizes. For reference, I am a 22-24/44C, so this is more than generous. Perhaps this is the trade off for removing plus sizes from the stores.

I purchased one in black and one in white, but I got them on clearance for $7 each. This one is currently running "reduced" at $15.

When I first saw this top I thought it would be perfect for a casual night out. Maybe a night out with the girls, or a get together with family. I combined it with a wristlet because I prefer to carry a wristlet if Im out at a bar or resturant. As long as I can fit my ID, cash, cell phone, and keys in it, I am set. I dont have to worry about lugging around a bag all night.
