Maybe I’m still conditioned from those back-to-school shopping trips of my youth, but I love any fall item that conjures a preppy look—cable knits, handkerchiefs, basically anything that longs for the addition of a pair of tights. Since this collegiate vibe is trending this season, it’s definitely worth noting that Banana Republic always delivers on this theme. Its new arrivals section is filled with all the classic fall must-haves you’ll reach for year after year, and the best part is they’ll always stand the test of time in terms of style and quality, which is what I look for most when I’m investing in trenchcoats, trousers, and soft sweaters. Curious to see what I’m shopping for the upcoming season? Keep scrolling.
