Copy Cat


dress: target   vest: old navy  shoes: kohls

I've had this vest for awhile but rarely wear it, 
because I have a hard time feeling like it is flattering.  

I've been looking for some vest inspiration and finally found two to copy.  

I'm happy to find a new way to wear it, since when I bought it I thought it would be something I could only wear in the Fall or Winter.   

Thank goodness for pinterest, right? 

i own this vest - should wear it like this!   vest/dress

    The vest looks really cute over the striped dress! I think it would look awesome with a wide belt too :)

    I'm not sure where I looked for any kind of inspiration before Pinterest came along. I think the vest is cute, and I agree that I usually only wear them in the winter. :)

    I think this dress is adorable on you! I love how you paired it with the girly dress.

    So, do you teach 4th grade? I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I get a third grade class at the school where I'm student-teacing!

    You go girl! It looks GREAT! I have one too from Old Navy and they're not the easiest to style... at least yours has the cute tie at the waist... mine doesn't even have that! Talk about hard to make flattering! :/

    Hope you have a great rest of the week and memorial day weekend!

    I love this idea of pairing a vest over a dress, and it's interesting that Pinterest makes us explore ways to dress that we would otherwise never have. You did a great job with this copycat style!

    So I literally just left ebay-searching for this exact vest. I love it and I want it. It's so versatile and I like how you paired it with the dress. I agree-Pinterest IS amazing!!
