You Said: Yes to Vests

October 11th, 2010

We asked: Would you wear Vests?

You said:  Yes to Vests, with a 78-22 split in votes.

Style tip? Our favorite thing about Fall Fashion is the focus on layering.  We love mixing silhouettes (big with small), textures (smooth with rough), and lengths (long with short).  The beauty of the vest is that it gives us an additional piece to play with - it can add a touch of color - or texture.  It can add polish and refinement to a wild outfit - or it can add a bit of drama to a look that’s more refined.  We’re enamored of the open front vest, which adds a breezily sophisticated air to more form fitting tops.  If you want to take a walk on the wild side, you can try a faux fur vest; with this piece, keep the rest of your look simple in silhouette so as to let this vest take center stage.

Next question: Shorts are traditionally warm weather fare, but they’re finding their way into autumn when paired with tights.  But what do you think?  Tell us, would you wear shorts with tights?  Cast your vote on the sidebar!
