How to Style the J.Crew Excursion Vest




vest // sweater // shirt // jeans // boots

I received a lot of requests asking to do a post on how to style the J.Crew Excursion vest (aka the piece of clothing I never take off). Whenever I don't know what to wear, chances are I opt for this vest! My favorite way to wear it with is lots of layers -- in this outfit I have on my new favorite cable knit sweater and a button down with a fun rhinestone collar. Ok I have to fill you in on a little secret about this button down.... If you're like me I'm sure you've obsessed over this top at one point in the last couple months, am I right? I totally did but wasn't feeling the expensive price tag. So little did I know that Kohl's had the exact same shirt but with long sleeves on sale for (drum roll please) $11! I nearly fainted of happiness. Needless to say I bought one in each color and have been wearing them nonstop. Just call me the frugal fashionista! 

I need some new ideas... How do you wear your vests?
xoxo,

P.S. I couldn't find the shirt online so check a store near you!

    I love this outfit! When I wear a vest I like to style it with jeans and a cute top :)
