Saks Off Fifth sent me a $20 off code for doing an email survey. I wanted to get something different, something I didn't have. And not too expensive.

 

I had just read an article about vests being "in" for the fall. They had this Calvin Klein vest for $40. I look forward to trying to create outfits with it. Love the idea of just a tshirt and the right jeans with it.

 

I am tall, so it shouldn't be too long for me. Any ideas for styling it?

I just wear them opened - over a turtleneck - basically like a sleeveless jacket.

@Greeneyedlady21   love it and if you have the arms for it, it is stunning over that simple top.   I also think it would work over a simply designed dress or a 3/4 sleeve tee (mine would be light cream or gray.

 

I bet you get lots of wear from it and for a long time, not just this year because some fashionista declares it this year's in thing.

@Greeneyedlady21   ruined mine years ago with yo-yo dieting and little exercise, but I would find a way to wear that striking vest with a sleeve less revealing.  Enjoy it your way

Oh how I wish I had a place or occasion to wear this one.  They are all beautiful, but this one really caught my attention.
