For the Love of Banana Republic



Yesterday I realised that an unnatural number of my favourite wardrobe pieces are not DvF or even Country Road, but are actually from Banana Republic. Now considering I left London before they opened a store there, and that the prices at Stuttafords are pretty hefty, it does take me aback a bit. A few I got when I was travelling to the States quite a lot (basic black shift dress, brown cashmere cardigan, black silk top, chiffon skirt, navy wrap dress, etc) and then I seem to have acquired a few pieces here, very subtlety (salmon dress, brown wrap, two silk tops, one chiffon top). That seems like an awful lot of clothing from the same label...
This is the gorgeous Dawn, in a colbalt blue shell from Banana Republic.
