*Thank you to Banana Republic Factory and ShopStyle Collective for sponsoring this post. These transitional pieces are a perfect way to get fancy this fall!
Two weeks ago I opened the mailbox to find a beautiful black envelope, laden with intricate gold calligraphy, addressed to my husband and me. It was from a dear friend inviting us to an elegant harvest dinner party. The first thing that popped into my mind was, I think, a very universal one: What am I going to wear?
I went straight to my closet, winnowing through outdated dresses and jackets, searching for the perfect piece that just wasn’t there. A bougie fall dinner party called for something special, but also something that didn’t max out my credit card. So I went to my go-to for all things chic–Banana Republic Factory and I found exactly what I was searching for, and more!
In fact, I think you’ll love these transitional pieces that you can wear this fall anytime a dash of elegance is required.
Getting Fancy This Fall with 4 Transitional Banana Republic Factory Pieces
Birthday lunches, dinners out with friends, date night, work events, family photos are all reason to get dressed up. And with the Banana Republic Factory October Promo underway, NOW is the BEST time to shop! You can score 50% sitewide for you and the whole family!
And believe me, these are classic, beautifully-constructed pieces you’ll want in your wardrobe not only now, but for years to come. Think Audrey Hepburn classic.
1. Flutter Midi Shirtdress
What a stunning find. I can’t even begin to tell you how lovely this dress is in person. It’s made out of the softest 100% polyester, so it glides on your skin like a cool breeze. And the price…fabulous!
If you’re looking for a dress that will look incredible in family photos this fall, this is it. The deep, Dark Cherry color compliments the warmth of an autumn dusk and the draping on this dress is so feminine and flattering, you’ll feel like a goddess in it.
I think the sleeves are my favorite. They billow and flutter in the most delicate way that makes you feel light and delicate as well.
Also available in black and two chic prints, grab this dress before your size is gone!
(Speaking of sizing, I sized down one size in this dress and I’m glad I did. I usually wear a S and I went with the XS in this dress.)
2. Strappy Heeled Sandal
I’m a huge fan of Banana Republic Factory shoes, but this pair takes the cake. My feet have never felt so sexy before and I feel like I got the deal of a lifetime…50% off right now! Can you believe that price for such gorgeous heels?
The perfect day-to-night sandals, these beauties look just as amazing in a dress as they do your favorite pair of jeans. There are SO many ways to style these strappy heels! In fact, I’ve never really played around with wearing heels with jeans until I tried on this outfit. My lunch dates will never be the same.
Grab a pair for yourself at this incredible price (I went with my regular size 7.5 and they are perfect) and turn eyes.
3. Double-Breasted Blazer
If you’ve never considered having a blazer in your rotation, it’s time to think again. What a luxe alternative to just any old jacket! It’s the perfect fall piece to take you into winter as well. And this blazer is so finely constructed, it will be one you’ll wear a lifetime.
Dress it up or dress it down–it looks just as polished with a dress as it does jeans and a t-shirt. Made of 40% wool, this double-breasted blazer is nice and warm…the perfect coverage you’ll need on a chilly night.
With the extra 20% off you get right now, it’s a beautiful investment piece that you’ll have for layering perfection for years and years to come.
4. Felt Fedora
Every fashionista needs a fedora and this one is such excellent quality for an even more excellent price, it’s a no-brainer! I love it as as the exclamation point to any outfit. That’s what makes this fedora the perfect transitional piece.
Pair it with a dress, a blazer, or a t-shirt and you’ve immediately upped your cool factor, and with zero effort!
Now is the perfect time to snag one, with up to 50% off almost everything. Prices this low on clothing this well-made…unbeatable!
