Banana Republic Scores With Spring 2012

It has been a very warm winter here in on the East Coast, such that it hardly feels like winter was here (until today when turned bone-chilling cold). But the recent styles hitting stores are a reminder that spring isn't that far off, and although I usually relish sweater and coat weather, spring fashion definitely has me looking forward to warmer temperatures. I am absolutely adoring the nautical stripes, the preppy splashes of navy, green and white, and the geometric prints in bold colors. In this vein, Banana Republic has finally scored a hit.  It almost seeems as though they are striving to fill the gap left by J. Crew when J. Crew decided to go too trendy.  Here are my top five picks:

1. Dot V-Neck Dress (Pictured in Pictures #1 and #4 above)
2. Large Polka Dot Dress (Pictured in Picture #2 above)
3. Gold Button Sweater Jacket (Pictured in Pictures #1 and #2 above)
4. Laurel Color-Block Pumps (Pictured in Pictures #4 and #5)
5. Color-Block Tee (Pictured in the last picture above)
