My favorite item to wear when shopping is a puffer vest. It is just perfect for running from a car to a building. I also don't get too over-heated inside a store wearing a puffer vest verses a winter coat.
I wore a off-white sweater underneath the vest (I bought it last year, but it's still available at JCPenney), and accessorized with a blanket scarf and hat. I love that it's winter and I can wear all my knitwear again. I don't have to worry if I'm having a bad hair day; I just pop on a beanie and go!
I picked up the puffer vest last year at Old Navy...and they still have them! You can sometimes pick one up for $15.00 on sale.
My embroidered jeans are new this year from JCPenney. The OTK boots are also new, they are from AGACI. I purchased them in-store. They are not available on-line. I carried a burgundy bag to compliment the burgundy vest.
And, because so many of you love to see how I wore items in previous ways, here is that same off-white sweater styled with brown jeans and a brocade scarf.

Thanks Carrie! I can't wait to see your OTK boots!
DeleteOk, I need to go get that vest at Old Navy. I tried it on early in November but didn't buy it...was waiting til payday. Love how you have styled it. And you are right, puffer vests are perfect for dashing in and out of buildings and between stores.
ReplyDeleteThanks Leslie! I love my vest and grab it more in the winter than any other winter coat!
DeleteWhat a fun winter look, love the color of the vest and how perfectly the boots and hat colors match.
ReplyDeleteThanks Elli!

DeleteI love that first outfit. So cute and cozy and something I'd wear. I totally love vests for those reasons you mentioned too. Also, I didn't know you do a linkup on Mondays now. How fun! Can I linkup anything?!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ada, I actually decided to discontinue the link ups due to some issues I've been having. I didn't realize I still had it mentioned on this post, I will edit it now.
