Old Navy is well-known for fashionable choices that don’t cost a fortune. Plus, they carry a wide range of sizes to fit pretty much any body type. On our WeAreTeachers HELPLINE Facebook group, Old Navy’s Pixie pants frequently come up when teachers talk about wardrobe staples. We asked what some of their other recommendations are, and put together this list of Old Navy teacher favorites. There’s something here for everyone!
Just a heads up, WeAreTeachers may collect a share of sales from the links on this page. We only recommend items our team loves!
1. Pixie Pants
Pixie Pants come in a full array of colors, patterns, and styles, and teachers report they’re both comfortable and professional-looking. The original hits just above the ankles, but they’ve expanded to full-length options too. And like many Old Navy teacher favorites, Pixie Pants are available in Women’s, Women’s Plus, and Maternity sizes, with regular, petite, and tall options.
2. Jersey Knit Dresses
Teachers love Old Navy’s jersey knit dresses, which Kilee W. describes as “soft and movable.” Tabby M. notes that they can shrink a little in the wash, so be sure to air dry rather than putting them in the dryer. Swing dresses are terrific for comfort, while midi-length dresses provide a little more coverage for teachers who spend half their day on the floor with little ones.
3. Face Masks
With at least a few more months of face masks on the horizon for us all, it’s good to know that Old Navy’s masks are out there. The adjustable ear loops mean they work for just about any face shape, and the color and pattern selection is phenomenal. Plus, they’re super-affordable, so you can stock up and not need to wash masks every single day. Check out their face mask offerings here.
4. Knit Sweaters
Emma T. is a big fan of Old Navy’s knit sweaters. “They last forever if you don’t put them in the dryer!” she notes. We love the Fair Isle tunics, textured cowl-necks, and slouchy stripes this season. Their men’s selection is great too, and this shawl-collar sweater is a classic choice.
5. Stevie Pants
After Pixie Pants, these are the top Old Navy teacher recommendation. Stevie pants offer the comfort of leggings in a polished fabric that’s perfect for work. Julie R. raves, “I love the Stevie pants! Look professional, but leggings fit! Also since I’m super petite, they are easy to wear at my height.” Lindsay D. likes their versatility. “Stevie pants are a Ponte knit so they are perfect to be worn with boots.” They come in Women’s, Women’s Plus, and Maternity sizes.
6. Luxe Tees
Luxe tees are perennial Old Navy teacher favorites. The super-soft fabric drapes beautifully, and the tunic-length tees pair nicely with jeans or leggings. The sleeveless tees are perfect under cardigans or jackets too.
7. Rockstar Jeggings
If you’re allowed to wear jeans to school, you’ll want to check out the Rockstar Jeggings at Old Navy. Like other pant styles, they’re available in short, regular, and long options in women’s and women’s plus sizes, so you’re sure to find a pair that you love.
8. First-Layer Cami
Old Navy’s First-Layer Camis come in a variety of neutral shades, including “nudes” that work for light and dark skin. Both Women’s and Women’s Plus size camis have adjustable straps and are long enough to tuck into pants. The Maternity Nursing Cami is especially cool since the straps have detachable clips.
