I agree with the same-same J.Crew comment.

Also, Banana's been doing the Monogram Collection thing since last year. I don't really get the concept other than appealing to Stateside urbanites who might fancy themselves "edgy" Europhiles (with the slimmer cuts and Italian fabrication). Prices are whack, in my opinion. Not a fan.

But here's a short but interesting article on the BR Monogram, if anyone's interested: http://washington.bizjournals.com/washington/othercities/sanfrancisco/stories/2008/03/24/story11.html?b=1206331200%5E1608411.

I love this article! I sent it to a bunch of fellow Banana Republic veterans of mine, and we've all been e-giggling for an hour now. It's all too true for words.

Okay...I never commented on anything GG-related because I never watched the show. Until last night, that is. I totally understand the fascination with the show now. I loved it! And I'm definitely getting the Season 1 DVD to do a marathon with other friends that had never seen the show until last night and loved it, too. Thank Jeebus for Olympics fatigue making turn on the CW and give GG a shot.
