The Deal: Get 20% off any purchase of $100 or more through Feb 25th at Banana Republic.
The Lowdown: February is almost history, and that means our long wait for Spring fashion is nearly over. It also means it’s time to take a long hard look in our closets to figure out just what we’re going to wear between now and May—the dreaded “transitional” dressing. Once we’ve taken stock, we’ll head for a sale like this one at Banana Republic (particularly because we love a “20 percent off” sale way more than the “$20 off” variety) and then hit the already-discounted sale items to get the best price.
Our top strategy (for maximum value) is to pick up pieces that you can layer under things you already have, and then wear alone later. And a pop of color is seriously in order. For petite girls, this silk cap-sleeve trapeze dress in rich green does the trick for $74.99. And tall girls, BR has your back too, with picks like this silk twill pleated blouse
, on sale for $39.99. Oh, and these both come in average sizes too, so everybody’s happy.

Everyone should have a classic trench coat in their closet and I recently found this great coat at the Gap on sale for $58.00. The big brown buttons and stitching around the wrists, updates this classic piece without making it too trendy. Now here’s the kicker—it comes in sizes xS to xxL and petite and tall sizes.
Gap.com recently announced the addition of Tall and Petite sizes to its online store. These garments, available only on the web, are designed to maintain their true silhouettes, while being scaled for the taller or shorter fashionista. Although the collection focuses on top sellers like the original long and lean jeans shown above ($58.00), it sure beats having to shop at corny sounding stores like Tall Girl (who came up with that one?) and Petite Sophisticate.
