If you have been to Banana Republic this holiday season, you’ve probably noticed the lip print artwork adorning the store’s walls and shelves. The pattern was created by fashion designer L’Wren Scott as one of the prints she produced for her collaboration with Banana Republic.

The Banana Republic L’Wren Scott Collection is a 50 piece limited collection of apparel and accessories, and is currently available in stores and online. Lace brocade, faux fur, and sequined panels are some of the textured fabrics used in this luxe collection.

There is everything from cocktail dresses to blouses to pencil skirts to tee shirts and even make-up bags. There are separates so you can mix and match most of the items. It’s high fashion at Banana Republic prices. Prices range from about $39.50 to $198. The purses are lovely. I especially like the Crackle Gemmed Clutches. 

My new favorite dress – the Silver Sequin Wiggle Dress. It’s so glam!!

My favorite piece is the sparkly Silver Sequin Wiggle Dress (above). It’s easy to wear, looks flirty and is very glamorous. I wore the dress to a Christmas party and received tons of compliments. This dress is worth the buy at $165 because even though it’s very holiday, you can wear it year round. I know I’ll get use out of it and may even wear it for New Year’s.

Another item I purchased from the collection is The Peony Print Ruffle Blouse (below). At first I was concerned that all the ruffles would not look good on (that I would look too busty), but the chiffon blouse fit perfectly. I love the bold colors in the design.

The bright & feminine Peony Print Ruffle Blouse, from the Banana Republic L’Wren Scott Collection, is very versatile. Paired with a black pencil skirt & Banana Republic cuff bracelet.

The only piece I do not recommend is the Peony Print Skinny Ankle Pant (shown in photo below.) It’s just too much print for me, and way too trendy. Also the pants are not flattering on someone with curves.

The Lip Print Bow Blouse (in photo above) is so cute. It’s a white blouse with a lip print design in shades of red, wine and violet. The tie is detachable so you can wear with or without (or in your hair as a headband/hair tie). If you have a larger chest, this piece is not for you. I tried sizes zero and two, but the blouse just looked dumpy on me. If you are very very thin, the blouse will look great!

Each year I look forward to Banana Republic’s holiday designs, and this year did not disappoint.
