The key to model-off duty style? For Jasmine Tookes, it’s fewer, better, and comfier. That’s the methodology behind her personal wardrobe and a big part of why she was excited to be in Banana Republic’s campaign for their latest classics collection.
It’s not the first time Tookes has worked with BR, and hopefully not the last. “The Banana Republic brand embodies a classic, understated elegance, even in the most casual pieces,” she shared over the phone. “I’ve been wearing Banana for years for everything from weekends away to nights out.”
Whether looking for upscale workwear or timeless outerwear, the classic American brand has prioritized quality craftsmanship and trend-proof staples, with gorgeous images wrapped up with model-approved styling tricks. Tookes is especially fond of the canvas dress look, given a casual spin with an over-the-shoulder cardi and borrowed-from-the-boys baseball hat.
Speaking of borrowed, the hero item of this collection is undoubtedly the suede trucker jacket. Originally a popular menswear item, this piece was modified for the women’s category and is just as lovely and luxurious as it looks. Most suede items tend to fall in a “special occasions” category, but this rugged yet refined piece is truly exceptional and thoughtfully crafted enough to wear every day. “The suede is buttery soft, and the color is so rich,” she gushed. When asked her favorite way to style this hero piece, Tookes suggested throwing it over a denim-on-denim look for spring, or even pairing it with a long dress and boots when fall comes back around.
When in doubt, though, Tookes reminds us to stick to the basics. She recently discovered the best white T-shirt at Banana and has a similarly timeless gray cardigan from the brand that she wears with everything from airport attire to off-duty date nights.
