If you follow us on Instagram you have probably noticed that I wear this vest constantly. It is probably the one item in my closet that has been on constant rotation. The one thing I will say is that I have yet to wear it the same way twice. By layering it over this dress, I can create a whole new look. This is what I mean by putting your closet to work. Take those items that you love and mix them up. Those summer dresses can still get some attention just by adding another layer.
I got this vest from Piperlime, and it is completely sold out, but I have linked up it’s identical twin below.

Blaire, I would totally wear this outfit head to toe. Love the casual but so put-together layers. I need a military vest to make this happen. And what a great bag. I have not one thing monogrammed. I'd love to win this – crossing my fingers.
Have a Fantastic Weekend, Ladies!
I love that the vest is so versatile and able to transform other pieces in your closet! I always try to squeeze some extra life out of my summer dresses by adding some boots, scarves, and cardigans for a more fall-appropriate look.
I think it's so great that you have found a piece and paired it all different ways with things you already own – now that is a great purchase!! Hope you have a great weekend!!
WOW Blaire it's good to see you wearing your Wellingtons too you look adorable, the weather here is the pits and I've had my Wellingtons on all week,they save my Tights getting splashed and feel good too.

I love how you layered your vest with this dress! I have a similar post coming up, with a summer dress of mine. Your layers are killing it! LOVE this look! Thanks for hosting such a cute giveaway too!
I have a few vests, but they're all puffy. I totally love them, but i've been wanting something lighter weight and more flattering like this! I'm loving all the ways your style it. Hope you two have a great event this weekend!
