Gap Picks & Fitting Room Photos

Today I got off of work early so before heading home I stopped in at Gap and Banana Republic to exchange some items I purchased online that didn't fit.

In this post I'm going to share some purchases and passes---and right now you can get 40% off of your entire purchase (in store + online) using the code "EVENT" at checkout.
I was IN LOVE with this blue dress. It is perfection---only the size 8, on the left was too big on me (I am cinching the waist form behind to show how I'd want it to look) and though the picture doesn't show it well, it was shorter than I wanted it to be. The size 2, on the right, fit nicely in the bodice, but was way way way too short. Sadly it doesn't come in tall---but you can scoop it up here as it would work for most ladies under 5'9 or so!
(sold out in blue, of course, but it's also available in white!)
I knew this sleeveless, lightweight chambray shirt would be a keeper as soon as I saw it! It's a little longer in the back than the front and it's versatile beyond belief- you can pair it with shorts or pants or tuck it into a pencil skirt to dress it up for work. This is a must-have! Mine is a size small.
This dress was a favorite! It's long for a regular length dress and it's a nice looser fit for those hot summer days. The fabric is great too. I got this one in a size 6. 
I ended up ordering this online in a 4 tall when I got home. The one I'm wearing in this photo is a 6 regular which is all they had left. I love white dresses for summer and like that this can be dressed up or down. I need the extra length so the tall will be arriving when it's off of backorder.
This dress must have been a store return because it's a medium tall. I liked the color and neckline but didn't love the fit at the bottom. I think a small or xs tall would have fit more nicely---but without the sash it was quite baggy. Either way, I think I would have purchased if the size had been right.
(this color is no longer available in regular and tall, but is in petites if you need M or L)
I think we can all see just from these pictures that this dress was a total fail�it was like a sack�no shape and I was swimming in the medium. I don't even think an xs would fit to be honest. I do love the general idea of this dress though, just wish it was shaped differently. 
(on sale in stores)
Lastly, I picked up this sweet baby pink dress for Harper---the color is actually a true light sweet pink, a little more bright than this photo shows. 

I hope you enjoyed my picks and passes! Did you score anything during this sale?! Let me know :)

PS---here's what I picked up for Kevin at Banana Republic---also having a 40% off sale on full-priced purchases:
