Happy Wednesday, my dear friends! I hope we're all having a fabulous week! :D
One of my favorite items in my closet is my dark wash denim vest. I think a denim vest is a very wise fashion investment. Like our basic white tees and jeans, vests can be worn in many ways, with a lot of items already in our closet, as seen here:
Since I love my dark wash denim vest very much, I also want to buy a light wash one. I didn't really find one as I surfed the internet, but here are cute vests I found:
Denim Cadet Vest (Forever21, $24.80)
Opt Hood Denim Vest (Forever21 Heritage 1981, $24.90)
Studded Biker Babe Denim (Forever21, $19.90)
Roxy "Cut Off" Denim Vest (Nordstrom, $46)
Michael Kors light wash vest ($99.50)
Do you have suggestions as to where I can find a light-wash denim vest at an affordable price?
Here are how some celebrities wear their denim vests:
I also made two Polyvore outfits showing how I like to wear mine.
Any tips on how else I could wear my vest? Do you like wearing vests?

Yah denim vests are great, could match any outfit.

i like the military style one, as well as the hooded one. both look really cute and versatile. i think denim vests are nice, but denim jackets are a bit too 80's! i see them popping up a lot now. we should stick to the leather jacket trend, imo.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried to wear a vest since they've come back in style, but your post makes me realize I've been missing out! I love the first vest!!!
ReplyDeleteHave you tried thrifting for one? Or you could buy a denim jacket and cut off the sleeves...Good luck on your hunt!
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday, Mimi!Ü
ReplyDeleteI love this post, I was just thinking of where to get a light denim vest. I have a dark wash denim vest but my sister has it right now -- I'm not sure if she plans on returning it.
I would wear it with a nice fitting plain white tee, leggings/jeans and boots. Love love love that second set you did.Ü

I love Gucci's shoes in the polyvore set!!The yellow ones...my cousin saw those in MIlan and she wants to buy those shoes but they are too expensive for a simple pair of shoes in plastic!! Something like 100 euros!!
