Banana had a new arrival roll-out this week and they are so much more appealing to me than J Crew’s latest. At a glance, Ann Taylor also seems to have some pretty new items too.
The Quilted Crew Pullover looks pretty cute and cozy but also seems like something I’d wear once, maybe twice, and move on. The Back Cutout Cropped Top is BRs version of the J Crew Swoop Top. Husband saw the Punk Floral one on someone on TV the other night and made a comment about it being “old lady looking”. He thinks the printed tops and cardigans are “old lady”, whatever that means.
The Seamed Ponte Fit-and-Flare Dress looks beautiful in Red, though it has an exposed back zip. I thought those would have already faded away. I’m all over those Preslie Caged Sandals, especially in the Black Cotton/Snakeskin print. And I can manage that 3 1/2 inch heel, at least for a few hours. I wonder how well the Tea Rose color will blend against my skin-tone?
If you have a gap family credit card there is 30% off with no exclusions. I'm may order…. Also have you noticed that there is a "Factory" tab across the top for Banana Republic. I just discovered this last week. You can now shop the BR Factory online. Gap Factory is also online but I can't figure out how to get to the site other than doing a Google search of "Gap factory new arrivals".
Lbelle – The best part about that card only promo was the no exclusions. I didn't order because I know there's always a 40% off. The exclusions, like the BR Picks, will eventually leave that list.
Thanks for commenting!
Love the caged sandals. Did you find they true to size or half size too small/big? There is friends and family coming up March 12 and I'm hoping I can buy these. Thanks so much!
