I know @lazerus24 has mentioned it before so I looked for it at Old Navy today. It's perfect. Lightweight (not bulky!), stretchy material and is long enough to cover my butt (I'm 5' 5"). Plus it's under $17. I got the tan and black ones. I didn't do blue because I thought that would look weird with black leggings, but maybe not? If you're pregnant it will work for the first one or two trimesters and if you're postpartum it would be good for that too.
It's cold and rainy here today so I've already put it on and I plan on wearing it the rest of the day and heck maybe tomorrow too.
I think @lazerus24 and I are similarly shaped. What size did you get?
I think @lazerus24 said she sized up. I know some of the reviews online said they did too. I'm normally a medium at ON and that's what I got. I tried it on and it fit so I went with it. Probably should've tried on the large too just so I could've compared but too late now.
Yeah in store it was 30% off I think but I have no idea if that was just today or what. I can't keep track of ON's weird pricing and sales. I just know nothing I bought today was full price but with Old Navy is it really ever "full price"?!
Hmm, tempting as I'm long-waisted and always looking for longer tops. But spk926 weren't you the one who popularized "the shirt" from Express in the spring? I ordered THREE of them because they looked so cute on you. I look like a total frump-bucket in them.

I tried this on yesterday in store - I'm 5'10" and usually an XL in tops from Old Navy and thought the L fit better in this. The fabric is great but I didn't love where the side slits hit me. I may order a tall online to see if it looks better.

I am wearing the shirt today and starting to hate it. I feel like the bottom doesn't lay right on me.
I bought this in store the other day in black. I got a M. I'm 5'3 and it covers my butt good. I usually do M or L at old Navy. I don't think I look the best in stripes but it'll be good for at home or running errands.
So I love this, but I have a big butt and hips. Oh, and I will have just had a baby. Would the gap on the sides opening wide make this look worse?
I don't think so, but I'm not sure. It's just two slits so it's not like they're open and flared out or anything. Just do what I do and order stuff and then if you don't like it return it to the store!
boiler717 you look great in it! Maybe I should order the blue after all. I don't typically wear much blue but I should probably branch out. How many weeks are you again? Is the tunic the regular or maternity version?
ETA: Oops, now I see you answered my questions already. Thanks!

We must have been typing at the same time! 20w, XL maternity. I don't know what about it is maternity. I think it looks 100x cuter IRL than the pic too.
