Confession: as an editor, sale shopping is basically an Olympic sport. We train daily, scrolling through page after page of new-in items at an array of online retailers, and must be able to determine, quite quickly, what to buy on the spot and what to save in our carts for another day.
And, while many of my peers have honed the purchase with one click option down to a science, I much prefer the thrill of the hunt. That’s why I always make a point of checking out Banana Republic ahead of summer’s arrival with a plan to stock up on shirts, dresses, and accessories for the season ahead. Currently, BR is offering up to 40% off of sale styles online. So, even though I’m supposed to be preparing to do a closet purge ahead of my upcoming move, I couldn’t help but pick out a few pieces to add to my summer wardrobe — especially at these prices.
Keep scrolling for 14 must-have items to shop from Banana Republic’s current sale selection, including several pieces to wear now, and a few to save for fall. I showed some restraint, but believe me: there’s plenty more in store, and some sizes are going fast!
These jeans are a steal at just $24.
Breezy Dolman tops are ideal for summer.
Banana Republic always nails the Western vibe, and this shirt dress is no exception.
Pro tip: Most Banana Republic jeans come in petite, regular, and tall fits, so you’re sure to find your perfect pair.
We’ve seen similar cotton cardigans elsewhere for 3x the price!

French cuffs are undoubtedly French girl approved for summer.
It’s never too late to enter your horse-girl era. I’m buying this now and saving it for the first crisp day of fall.
For me, a mini dress with long sleeves checks all of the boxes. I’ll be purchasing this design in black, too.
