What Do You Wear When You Want to Feel Put Together?

What do you pull on when you want to feel polished and elegant? Banana Republic has been crushing it with their classic pieces. Look at this brown monochrome look, above, for example. Also, full-priced items are 40% off right now (!!!!). Here are a few pieces I’d love to wear on repeat this fall…

Nothing feels better on a chilly day than pulling on a cashmere turtleneck. (Plus, you can do a hair tuck.) The stripe version is lovely, too.

These flared jeans were brought out from the 1978 Banana Republic archives — how cool is that? I appreciate how they can be dressed up or down depending on your shoes, like pointy boots or white sneaks.

I’m a sucker for a sexy silk shirt for dinners with friends or dates. This one comes in five colors and would look pretty tucked into a short skirt.

And, ooooh, these lace-up boots are SO GOOD — they feel like a combat boot but also elegant? I’d love to pull them on for walking around the city or exploring small towns upstate.

Is anyone going to a dressy party or wedding this fall? Wouldn’t you love to wear this gold number? When I was a kid, this is the kind of silky dress I imagined wearing when I grew up. (It comes in three colors.)

You could polish everything off with timeless accessories. I’m into this crescent bag and chunky hoops.

And, finally, as the weather cools down, a classic wrap coat would be perfect for adventures around the city. This wool one drapes beautifully and looks like it came straight out of Love Story.

Great news: During Banana Republic’s friends & family event, get 40% off full-priced items, plus free 2-3 day shipping on orders over $175 (with code BRSHIP). Good until September 26th; exclusions apply.
