Have you seen the latest prints over at Banana Republic? They are so perfect for Spring that it’s hard to choose a favorite, but I’ll try.
My favorite of the Brushstroke Print is the Shirtdress. When I first saw it online, I thought the contrasting collar and cuffs were another shirt layered under but they are part of the dress. Sadly, it’s 100% Polyester. For $158, I was hoping for a least jersey, if not silk. Only the skirt is a rayon/linen blend.
Of the Watercolor print, I really like both the Pencil and Pleated Skirts. The Pencil Skirt and Pants are 100% Cotton.
Though I can see both of these prints at J Crew, I am really happy to see Banana Republic adding some nice prints to their collection.
Which of the two prints do you like? Or do you prefer the Pinstripe (Skirt, Shirtdress)?
They are really shooting themselves in the foot with the poly. I loved the tropical print they released after the holidays (with pink background) but when I went to the store I was SO disappointed in the fabric (and for $88). JCREW poly at least looks like silk…
Ema – Oh and that was a pretty print too! I’d rather wear a silk dress lined in poly than a poly lined in poly.
