I have a confession to make… I don’t get vests. Or, I guess I should say, I “didn’t” get vests. They’ve always been kind of a mystery to me. They don’t really add any warmth, I personally think puffer vests are highly unattractive, and if they’re printed, it’s a whole other story with what to pair them with! My thoughts have changed a bit since I found this floaty little piece. Fitting in completely with my personal style mantra of “a little feminine, a little edgy,” this third piece is fantastic for adding some interest to an otherwise unremarkable LBD. I’d also pair it with a tank and skinny jeans, or a white t-shirt an black pencil skirt. Lots of options here! So I guess opinions can change, as long as it’s the right match!
