Vests Making a Comeback!

We’re all seen or had a quilted vest. Many times they had a hood, were quilted and had an elastic waist. They seem to be popular for a while, then you don’t see them.

Vests are making a comeback. This time around, however, the quilting seems to be less puffy, the fit is more sleek and close to the body. I have seen some neutrals such as black and charcoal as well as brights such as coral and red, and even pastels such as light blue, pale pink and aqua.

I like the black and charcoal colors, since they slim you and with dark jeans make you look taller. Pair them with a neutral T-shirt and a pop-of-color scarf. Or pick a bright colored vest and pair it with neutrals, as well as snow boots, black boots or even brown.

The vest is a good piece as we begin to wind down from winter. We still need warmth, but maybe not the heavy wool coat or puffer.

Vests are available at these and other stores: JCrew, Orvis, Madewell and Orvis.

Enjoy!
