To layer or not to layer? Definitely layer. And with cute vests layering is super easy. Here are a few ideas for melding vests into your wardrobe.
With a Dress — The Nautical Sweater Vest ($28) and Striped Knit Dress w/ Belt ($28) are from Forever 21 Plus. The Romantic Soles Geneva flats ($69) and Lucky Brand Cross Culture Red Set Stone Bracelet ($35) are from Zappos.
Belted – Macy’s does it right from head to toe — Sleeveless Pointelle Vest ($79), DKNY Soho Cuffed Cropped Capris ($89), Calvin Klein Belt, ($37), and Nine West Shoes, Raffy Sandals ($89).
Casual — And Swakdesigns has a great casual Layer Knit Vest ($31) that looks great with tees and their Dark Wash Plus Size Boot Cut Jeans ($59). Finish it off with sneakers, booties or Joe’s Jeans platforms ($165).

I have been blogging about my favorite things for over five years. It could be dresses, tops, pants, bags, shoes, jewelry or my latest obsession, nail polish. I may even throw in the occasional website or book. Come shopping with me! 
I love this!
I can just picture how much more streamlined I’d look with vertical lines over a plain shirt. And I get hot really easily, so a vest is perfect!
Thanks so much for the idea.
Great style ideas! I’m loving the nautical look. A vest is so versatile and easy to pair with just about anything.
Thanks again for the ideas.
