We’re loving this gray silk blend dress from Banana Republic. The watercolor print is interesting without being distracting (and: bonus points for being vaguely vertical, which is always flattering), and we love the high neckline. We’d wear it with a fairly structured neutral blazer for work and skin-toned shoes. It’s $120 at Banana Republic. Banana Republic Watercolor wrap dress

Call us a sucker for a pretty yellow sweater, but we’re loving this one. Doesn’t the model look happy to be wearing it? Don’t the gold chains look nice with it? The sweater’s long one, so be aware that you’ll definitely be rocking the boyfriend/mad professor/doctor’s coat-if-it-were-a-yellow-sweater type of look. We’d wear it with a white buttoned blouse and gray trousers (or perhaps brown or navy). Love it. It’s $140 at Banana Republic. Cashmere V-neck cardigan

We’re liking this cotton and silk ruffled blouse from Banana. The small bit of print… the shape of the neckline… the loose fitting sleeves — like it all. We’d wear it tucked in with a gray or navy suit, perhaps with pearls. It’s $59 at Banana Republic, available in both the purple and a light green. Banana Republic Cotton/silk ruffle printed blouse

Banana Republic
is having yet another online-only sale today (20% off orders of $75+ with code BRSAVE20), and we’re digging this wide belt that has some leather, and some cloth. We like that the reviewers all rave about the amount of stretch in the belt and the way it lays properly; we think it would be a great way to add some shape and spunk to a sweater dress or cardigan. It’s $38 at Banana Republic in sizes XS/S and M/L. Leather knotted belt

Great, simple top from Banana Republic with lovely pleats at the neckline and a flattering empire waist. We like the idea of wearing it under a cardigan, hopefully with a similar neckline, for a layered look. It’s $32, and is available in both regular and petites. Pleat-neck 3/4-sleeve top – Black

Banana Republic has a ton of stuff marked 40% off, including a lot of basics and great seasonal items like this lovely silk blouse. We like that it’s not quite a plaid, and not exclusively Christmas-y — but still seems every bit as appropriate as the usual Christmas plaid. We’d wear it with a high-waisted skirt and perhaps a long-sleeved, thin-knit turtleneck beneath it. Was $60, now $29, available in sizes S-XL at BR. Banana Republic Womens Silk Abstract Blouse

We’re pretty sure we’ve featured these non-iron shirts from BR before, but when reader R wrote to us with such a nice review we couldn’t help but bring it to your attention again:
I love the French cuffs and the cut–no gaping at the bust, and no poufing out at the waist when you tuck it in. The color is beautiful, and fabric has a great sheen to it that makes it lovely under a jacket or by itself. Personally I think it is set off best with pearls, but you could put about any jewelry with it. Best of all, so far the non-iron wrinkle free label is true to its word!
It’s $59 at Banana Republic. Women: Classic tailored non-iron shirt

For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional.
Maybe we’re crazy, but we don’t *think* we’ve seen this suit before from Banana. Either way, we really like it — the fact that it’s made of lightweight wool, as well as the double pockets on one side of the blazer and the high waist of the skirt. Even the shoulders, which are slightly sharper than previous seasons (but not as sharp as the Balmain knockoffs that are everywhere this season) seem “of the moment” without being trendy. The jacket (Women: Classic one-button pinstriped suit jacket – Charcoal pinstripe) is $198, and the skirt (Women: Lightweight wool pinstriped pencil skirt – Charcoal pinstripe) is $80. Matching pants (Women: Jackson pinstriped wide-leg pant – Charcoal pinstripe) are $98. (Note also that for today only, you can get free shipping with a purchase of $99 or more — use code SHIP99.)

The description for this cotton sweater says that it is “like a blazer but not quite,” which is sort of hilarious because we were going to go on and on about how it’s sort of like a boyfriend cardigan but also sort of like the riding jackets we’re seeing so much of, but aren’t quite ready to commit to yet. (They remind us of Ally McBeal’s short skirt/long jacket combos.) But this — this is lovely. We’d wear it with trousers, skirts, sheath dresses — open, buttoned, belted, whatever. We even like the look with the scarf, as shown. It’s $90 at Banana Republic (also available in black, in sizes XS-XL; use code SHIPBR75 to get free shipping on orders over $75 through Aug. 30.) Women: Long pocket cardigan – Rublo taupe
