vices & virtues

(hat,blouse & denim shorts VINTAGE, vest NORDSTROM RACK, boots TOPSHOP)

I've had this vest hanging in my closet with tags still attached. The question was to return or to keep. I bought it with no idea how I would style it. To get me motivated to wear it I had a styling party and came up with three different ways to wear it, starting off with this look. I paired the vest with this vintage flared sleeve brown blouse and for bottoms I kept it casual with this D.I.Y shredded black denim shorts. I accessorized heavily with this wide brimmed black hat and layered with bracelets and my signature rings in mixed metals. To complement the color scheme I went for a red pout. The patent leather TOPSHOP boots and trouser socks pulled in the entire look. So there you have it look one perfect for a dinner night out with the girls!!
