A Tailored Vest - My Favorite Spring Trend

Spring can be chilly one day and warm the next and that’s why the vest trend is one of my favorites for spring 2024! You may be thinking that vests never really go out of style and that’s very true, but this season, there are some interesting styles and shapes that can be worn alone, over a blouse or tee, or under a jacket or blazer! Fashion reinvents itself every year and that’s part of what makes it so much fun! While I do love having classic closet essentials hanging in my closet, adding in a trend…especially a classic trend (yes, that’s a thing), makes getting dressed a little more interesting!

Several things make this vest from Veronica Beard interesting…the shoulder pads, the pocket placement, the gorgeous buttons, the neckline and the V in front! It’s meant to be worn with high waisted pants…jeans or trousers and looks great with or without a blouse underneath. As the weather gets warmer, I’ll definitely be wearing this vest on its own with jeans and open toe sandals. Either way, the tailoring gives this vest a crisp look and the structure keeps it classic. It’s one of my favorite new pieces this season! If you’re still wondering about the trend…no one says it better than Vogue!

“Gaining momentum over the last few seasons, the staple is reimagined for spring 2024 in chic, flattering silhouettes, cementing any look to polished perfection. Several also come equipped for summer’s much-anticipated arrival with delightful details including but not limited to: linen, bright whites, lightweight yet luxurious fits, and more. Should you find yourself in possession of this seasons most wanted item, now comes the fun part: styling your newly minted suit vest.”

It’s no secret that Veronica Beard is one of my favorite brands and my jeans and shoes are both by Veronica Beard as well. I purchased the suede slingback sandals last spring and have nearly worn them out! Slingbacks seem to go with everything and the heel height on these is perfect for me. Now that I’ve said how great they are, sadly, they’re unavailable but there are many many fabulous pairs in stores for spring! And because slingback heels come in every height imaginable, there truly is something for everyone!

I think slingbacks are so flattering and add a touch of sophistication to any look. I’m loving the long flare jeans as well because they make my short legs look a mile long!

About the bag…

I’ve had my eye on this bag for quite some time now and finally bit the bullet and got it for myself! It was a bit of a splurge, but I’ll carry this fabulous bag for the rest of my life! It really fits my way of dressing and I couldn’t love it more! I’ve linked a few others at different price points if you want the same look for less!

In the boutique below, I’m linking options for vests, bags and shoes…I hope you find something you love!

This week has flown by and I’ve spent so much time working on the new website! It’s going to be so beautiful and it’ll be up and running really soon!
