The Show Must Go On



Eboni is off enjoying her vacation in Cabo but according to Trina from Baby Shopaholic, the show must go on. :-) Trina chose vests as this week's Style Me Friday inspiration. I have a vest. I actually have a few vests. I have a moto vest, a blazer vest, a few denim vests, and some sweater vests/cardigans. I'm working on getting a utility vest, one day.  A vest is a pretty easy piece to style. You usually just layer it over or under something. Or so I thought. Just because you have the pieces doesn't mean a new look would come to you instantly. I actually styled my look at the last minute last night after work. I decided to go with a leather and denim look and I kept it simple by wearing all black. Casual and comfy with a little edge. How do you wear your vests?

Outfit Details:
Studded Vest - Thrifted | Ankle Wedge Boots - Nine West | Shorts - Target

  1. I mostly wear vests during the warmer months over a dress but in the colder months I tend to wear it over a long sleeve top and jeans combo. Love your leather shorts and how you paired it with the vest. That third photo looks fierce girl.

  12. This is a great outfit Mo! Would love to see a closeup of your ankle wedge booties - maybe something for instagram? ;) I find denim vests are pretty easy to style in the warmer months, just throw over a cute dress/skirt and you're good to go. I struggle with pairing denim vests outside of my little formula though, so thank you for this great outfit inspiration!

  22. I love the denim on black! Wearing black beneath the vest really helps it stand out as your main piece. You're always so great at styling your outfits Mo!
