My Favorite Pieces from Banana Republic

Sep 12, 2022

Last year, I bought a blazer from Banana Republic.  It was so good, I bought it in every color.  And while some of their summer styles weren’t for me (I was spending my holiday on a yacht anchored near the Dalmatian Coast), their fall wares are a different story.  Here are my favorite pieces from their latest line.

The pleating on the bodice of this Stella Sheath is sublime.  It would look so chic under a blazer.  It’s absolutely perfect for the office.  And the black dress is the perfect day-to-night option.

I can’t decide if I like the emerald green suit or the mustard yellow suit best, but one of these is coming home with me.  They’re both so cool and fashion forward, and yet, totally wearable.

Whether you’re in the office or at home, the Signature Tuxedo Shirt is a must for any wardrobe.  It looks amazing with denim, with work separates, or grab the tunic-length version to wear with leggings at home.  And since it comes in tall and petite, you can find the perfect length.

This Netta Ribbed Wrap Dress is on high on my wishlist for fall.  I will probably buy it in both colors.  Sadly, BR does not have the belt for sale (which seems like a mistake), but I found this similar one.

These Lorca boots are epic.  I didn’t think I would like the wood heel on the bottom of a black boot, but the more I look at it, the more I realize that it works.  It makes them a little cooler, a hair more casual, but still amazing.

    Abra, how are you doing? I love your fashion, but I’m more concerned about your health.

    • Emily says:

      I came here to say the same thing. I love reading the fashion updates but totally understand if you take maternity leave from the blog especially considering everything – hope you’re recovering well and that your baby girl is getting better as well.

        Third. I don’t even know you personally, but have been a reader for a decade and was thinking of you and Sloane this weekend. I hope you’re both safely recovering.

        • Jenn S. says:

          Fourth! I’m happy to see content because I hope it means you’re doing alright and that Sloane is better.

          Love the dresses – but yes, definitely more concerned for you!

    • Laura says:

      Fifth-ing the sentiment, and seconding that I like to see you posting because I hope things are okay.

The Beauty Edit: An Under-Eye Concealer That Actually Works

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
