I’ve ordered a few things here and there from Banana Republic lately. Though I returned everything but one item in this post I thought I’d share the IRLs in case any of you are interested in them. My previous reviews are {here}.

Banana Republic Chambray Shift Dress, size 6 – This dress just fit and I’d feel better in a size 8. I material felt nice and soft, very Chambray and not denim-like. I wanted to exchange this for an 8 but feared that it wouldn’t be available online when I sent it back. Non of my 4 stores have received this yet so I just returned it outright.

The Hampton Pant is my new favorite pant. These are the Hampton Fit Crop in a Regular 6 Short. I love that there are different inseams (Regular, Short, Long) and Petite sizing for these pants. The color is Flirty Pink. They fit amazingly well and though I liked these I have a pair of Cafe’ Capri in the same shade I still haven’t worn so they were returned. I also have the Emerald Print Crop in 6 Regular that I still need to wear.

  
I did keep the Hampton Fit Chambray Crop. I was about to purchase another pair of the Tory Burch Cropped Skinny Jeans and found the BR ones that are a perfect, and less expensive, duplicate. I’ve worn them several times already. The fit is flattering and the rinse is dark enough to be dressed up with a silk top and heels. I took a Regular 6 Short in these as well. 

I saw the Gold-Button Blazer in Cocoon in the store back in January but my size was not available. I ordered a size 8 when it was 50% off. Unfortunately I don’t think even a 10 Petite would work for me. I didn’t like where the buttons hit, way too low. The sleeves were crazy long as well. This was just ill-fitting all over so I returned it.

Though I didn’t keep the dress, I really did like it. And the pants are a definite love! I will be trying more colors as they come out.

What have you tried at Banana Republic lately?
