These 25 Minimal Summer Pieces from Banana Republic Are Already in My Cart
Plus, they're all under $200.


As a shopping editor, it’s literally my job to stay updated on all the latest launches from my favorite brands and retailers and let you know what’s worth buying. Today, I’m here to talk about the new summer collection at Banana Republic.
The just-released selection is full of new-season essentials, including the $100 linen pants I’ve personally tried and tested, along with chic, easy-to-style summer dresses. Plus, every piece—even those in brighter colors like Kelly green and blood orange—will fit seamlessly into your summer capsule wardrobe, even if you’re a devoted minimalist. Just add a pair of strappy sandals or a woven bag, and you’ll be good to go.
Keep scrolling to see everything that caught my eye from Banana Republic’s new drop. Everything on this list retails for under $200, allowing you to look rich without breaking the bank or going over budget.
