I am soo disapointed in what I ordered. I am currently keeping this tee shirt (http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=17082&vid=1&pid=751147), which fits, but I am not super crazy about it, it's actually pretty sheer, even in navy and is hand wash only. Everything else was really oversized, and on my frame was a tad frumpy looking and in general although by current standards overweight I still look quite lean. I like vanity sizing, but too much vanity sizing isn't a good thing because then things just don't fit right. I might exchange this sweater (http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=8993&vid=1&pid=749451) for a small, but other than that the other items are going back.

These are the items that are going back:
Oversized V Neck sweater:

Ruffled Eyelet blouse:

A friend has that last blouse, and I thought it looked really cute on her. I was all set to go buy one and tried hers on - it was strange on me. I haven't had a ton of luck with GAP in general lately - I have a gift card that I just can not spend!

With the last sale I TRIED to find something and I even went in store the other day with my groupon and there was nothing I wanted either time, which is crazy for me because 85% of my wardrobe is Gap.

glad to hear I wasn't the only one. As far as the blouse goes I think it would've looked better if I had a bigger chest (I am 38B) so the boxy part of the blouse would go in a bit and not look so boxy all around as it had no curves at all.

Fivi use your gift card for shoes @ Piperlime.com .

Those boy-cut sweaters look horrid on me. When not pg, I actually have a waist and curves, and those hide them and just make me look fat. And that last top looks a little too sheer, so yeah, understandable. It's always amazing what looks good on me from Gap. I went shopping w/ my metrosexual baby brother one time and asked him to pick out 3 things he thought I'd look good in. Of course, they were full price and some of the most expensive "tees" I'd purchased, but they looked fabu! Actually, I'm still wearing 2 of them as they were A-line/swing tops and fit my 27wk belly.
