Old Navy Pre-Spring Mini Haul: Yellow and Blue Dresses

February blessed my region with some wonderfully mild days, but since March arrived cold winter weather has returned in full force--colder even than average, really. Since my winter wardrobe will have to hold out a little longer, I took advantage of a recent Old Navy sale to pick up a few new clothing items that are warm enough for freezing temperatures but look a little more bright and cheerful for the coming spring. As it happens, everything I got was in shades of bright yellow and blue, so I thought they'd make a pretty, color-coordinated mini haul post. Please excuse the wrinkled fabric--in true haul style, I photographed these right out of the bag!

Heavy-Knit Shift Dress in Lime Stripe

Don't let the color name fool you--this dress isn't lime green but a nice golden yellow. I guessed that this might be the case based on the online photo, and was happy to see that I was right. The material really is heavy, though, which is perfect for lingering cold weather. I think the classic shift style and sailor stripe pattern will look nice paired with navy leggings. I got mine for $22 on sale.

Pleated Tie-Neck Swing Dress in Blue Floral

Back in February I purchased this dress in a bright red color with a blue floral print--it's actually the dress I'm wearing in my social media profile pics. I got it for just under $12 and absolutely loved it, so when I saw they had the same dress in a blue and white floral for the same price, I had to get it again. I'm not usually a drop-waist fan but I think this cut is really flattering, and I like the ballet-length sleeves a lot. The blue flowers with yellow centers on a white background looks nice and fresh for spring, and the length is just right for wearing with leggings.

Sleeveless Cutout-Back Shift Dress in Yellow Floral

This bright yellow floral dress is so cheerful that it will brighten up even a chilly grey day. Since it's sleeveless and has a cutout in the back I'll pair it with a long, heavy cardigan for now, and switch to a lightweight cardigan later in the spring. It has a high-low hem which I think always looks great with leggings, and could transition to a summer sundress without if you don't mind a slightly higher hemline in the front. I'm thinking of wearing this with leggings for my birthday in early April, since it's almost always too cold for bare legs where I live. I got it on sale for $14.
