You all know I'm a vest girl. I love that extra layer of warmth without the bulk on my arms. I have four puffer vests, a suede vest, and a fur vest and this season I added two long sweater vests to my collection. Both are from CJBanks (no longer available, similar HERE); I bought one in black and one in burgundy.
I styled my vest with a sheer dark floral shirt (old, JCPenney), black straight leg jeans (St. John's Bay) with a black belt, a black fur infinity scarf, black booties, and my Liz Claiborne Elizabeth Tote.The long length of the sweater vest is very slimming.
My scarf I purchased at the Mall of America years ago. I also bought a leopard print and camel color at the same time. They are so soft and luxurious.
Because I wore a scarf, and my top has such a busy print plus a lace up neckline, I did not wear a necklace, but chose these pretty black drop earrings instead.
I also wore a rust love-knot ring to match the rust color in the top. A friend of mine made this ring for me years ago.
I've been noticing in Blog Land that women are wearing higher waist pants and tucking in their shirts again. I for one couldn't be happier about it! I've always carried my extra weight in my tummy, so I love the idea of wearing higher waist pants and tucking it all in! I also like that belts are re-emerging on the scene; I think they add so much interest to an outfit. Although how everyone is affording those Gucci belts I have no idea! Yikes, they are expensive!
Get use to seeing my husband's woodpile being my photography background for the next few months. It's too difficult trying to walk out in the yard with all the snow. The wood pile is right out my back door, so it's nice and convenient. I actually think it makes a nice backdrop too!
I wore this outfit to church on Sunday.
So what about you? Are you happy with the higher waistlines or do you prefer low rise? Do you like to tuck your shirt in and wear a belt? I'd love to hear from you!
Have a Great Day! Amy
