Banana Republic had a bunch to offer when I was researching their comeback. I had one rule, to avoid adding yet another black sweater to my closet. Hence breaking my posts into BR: The Lavender Edition and now BR: The Navy Edition.
I’m a sucker for anything hinting at a sixties silhouettes. I love the wide turtleneck and pronounced cuffs of this oversized merino-cashmere blend sweater. It’s ultra soft and cozy.
And that brings this post to the current trend of oversized sweaters. My preferred pairing for this look is with skinny or slim straight jeans. My rule of thumb, is balance. Flowy on top or on the bottom, not both.

Dress it up with booties and a scarf:
The last of my BR haul is the statement sleeve top, available in blue, black and ivory. Link here.
I paired this top with black, kick-boot flare denim by AG and Ron White bootie:
And paired here with Mother denim’s The Weekender Flare and the killer booties by Silent D.
Who doesn’t love an oversized sweater? You look great in both, and may I add, perfectly balanced!
Ha! Thanks. Oversized is like wearing a stylish blanket. LOL.
Looking great as always Francie. Where are you taking your shots?
A bunch in Martinez. There are so many cool old buildings there.
