Tips Tuesday: Vests!!

Last week's tips over blazers had the highest views out of every post we've done! So hopefully you guys will enjoy this one even more!

Since it's getting a little warmer outside we thought vests would be a perfect thing to cover this week. It's still considered outerwear but you can still wear it and not be hot. Vests can be worn so many different ways and there are several different styles of them. We will of course cover dressing them up and down and give you links to get the look without "breaking the bank".


For the casual vest look, we went with Ciara. Ciara kept her vest look simple and casual with the denim vest and black knit dress. As far as accessories, she tried to make it stand out a little with a silver necklace and multiple black and silver bangles. Her black silver studded platform heels gave the casual outfit some sass. The outfit can be worn on a lunch date with the beau or your girls and even shopping..(e.g. the picture of Ciara). Her look can be really easy to achieve and is probably one of the easiest looks and cheapest buys we've suggested thus far! :-)

For Zoe's vest look...she went with a more dressy outfit. She is wearing a gray/black vest with a white cami like top layered underneath, and gray knee length shorts. As far as accessories, she kept it simple with a brown leather belt, a layered gold chain necklace, and a black clutch. For shoes, she has on black peep toe lace up booties. She is also showing an example of how to wear the menswear look as a female. This outfit is a simple dressy look that can be achieved with few pieces.
