Presenting another Lookbook Video!
This vest has become so versatile in my wardrobe. I love that it adds such a cute accent without being overbearing and it's not like I'm wearing that much of an extra layer since it's just a vest. I hate it when I layer too many shirts and then my arms get all bunched up with the extra fabric. A ruffle vest is a perfect solution to layering! Also, quite a few of you were surprised to see me wearing a while blazer during the winter in this lookbook but I love wearing white in the winter! I wanted to show you this outfit to show you the contrast of a different way you can wear a white blazer in the winter and still look "winter appropriate". If it had been colder (and if I had been forced to be outside more) I would've worn boots but the layering of the vest helped keeped me plenty warm that day.

Those little bows on my lapel you see up there? They are earrings! Thought they looked better on my blazer than on my ears. Cute right? |
Forever21 Ruffles & Lace Vest - so cute and under $20!
You could do the same with this short sleeve ruffle cardigan or this vest comes in several colors.

Really though with this outfit you could just do a tee underneath in practically any color. These are my favorite long sleeve tees. |
I am a jeggings lover :) They are so comfy!
My gray wool ones are sold out but I love the new colors that they brought out for this style.
I've never head of this brand but these are really similar and are only $28! Or these are pretty amazing for $100!

ReplyDeleteLOVE THIS OUTFIT! Looks adorable. I use the Conair Infinity a few times a week, and I love it too. My hair is shoulder length, but I love the fun waves and volume it gives me. Great post! XO

I love winter white too and the ruffles are to cute. I recently experimented with ruffles under blazers and love the results. The colors you chose for this outfit are terrific though, they go surprisingly well together!

I love the whole outfit! Yellow is a great color for you. And of course, the Loubs are fabulous as always! xo
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love the outfit. I get a lot of my inspiration from your lookbooks, since we wear the same sizes(except for shoes, I'm a 6.5). Winter white is one of my faves. Living in the south, I get the side-eye a lot. :)

I'm so in love with this look! You must be reading my mind...I've been experimenting with vests and curly hair lately. Except I'm trying out hot rollers...old school, I know but the curl lasts longer than any iron I've ever tried.

ReplyDeleteGenius! I love the earrings as pins! I think that brooches, pins & cuff links are timeless and an easy way to make an outfit unique. You look so adorable in these pics, like you have a mischievous secret! :)
ReplyDeletehave a great day!

Love, love, love both the outfit and the hair! I prefer a curling iron without the clamp; I am in love with the Jose Eber series. My friend in the UK tipped me off on that, so they're a bit tough to get in the states, but not impossible!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the ruffled vest! Also, I've been meaning to try jeggings for a while now; I just need to get in shape first. :P
ReplyDeleteCute outfit!
It would have never ocurred to me to wear a vest underneath but totally love the way it looks, you're right vest are great for layering without looking too puffy! ... I'm all about white blazers for winter, as long as it's paired with the right stuff as shown in your outfit!

The whole not wearing white thing is so silly to me! As if colours have anything to do with seasons :) You're looking very cute today!
ReplyDeleteYour vlogs are so great!
ReplyDeleteyou are so creative. who woulda thunk it earrings for pins! I am asian and I have stick straight hair. what products do you use to keep your curl in? I have spent 2 hours doing my hair curling the heck out of it but in 10 mins it falls flat after using strong hold hair spray and mousse. I can't wait for it to grow out so I can get a perm.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty :) You are so adorable!
ReplyDeleteQuestion: how often do you change your nail polish colours?
and that curling iron - I'm getting one too! Avon (well in Canada anyway) actually sells it :)
I was going to comment on your hair, it looks fabulous and very long! I'm in awe of your amazing layering skills here it all fits together effortlessly!
ReplyDeletei love the white blazer!
ReplyDeleteSO SMART putting the ruffled VEST under the blazer! Genius!!

Super great outfit, although the word 'jeggings' makes my skin crawl. I especially like the earrings idea. Consignment stores are rife with interesting pairs that would make great brooches. Very clever.
