There are a few key retailers that have been go-to’s for me for years—I’m talking 15-plus years, here. Honestly, maybe even 20. J.Crew and Nordstrom are two of those stores, but yes, so is Banana Republic. Whenever I went to my local mall as a teenager and in my 20s, Banana Republic was stop one. I used to wait anxiously for the Black Friday sale, in particular, when I could score my new wardrobe staples at serious discounts. While it’s been a minute since I’ve been in a store, I recently started scrolling through the site to look for trending picks to recommend across my stories. I discovered so many chic items that I just had to tell you about. My colleague (pictured above) also recently shared her favorite Banana Republic picks, which are fantastic.
Below you’ll uncover my edit of the best Banana Republic items to buy for spring and summer. You’ll notice quite a range of items. There’s everything from elegant tailoring silhouettes that could be dressed up or down to pretty dresses for any upcoming parties to sleek footwear styles like beautiful strappy sandals. Keep scrolling for all of that and more.
