Oldham for Old Navy

No, really. Designer Todd Oldham is the new creative director for Old Navy. At first, this seemed like a really odd pairing to me, but then I remembered that Todd has already lent his name to a line of dorm furniture (obviously) at Target and to a collection for La-Z-Boy. So he gets around.

Old Navy and Gap have both been suffering in sales -- hopefully this will be a step in the right direction for Gap. Inc. I'm all about style for the masses (Hello! My entire closet is stuffed with pieces from Target's Go! designers.) but I'll need to see some proof before I fully endorse this discount duo. O.K. Oldham, your first order of business: Please purge all fleece from the Old Navy collection. Yuck.
