My New Happy: Fall Military Vest

Wednesday, September 23, 2015

Fall Military Vest


It's time to give in and start transitioning to fall clothing.  Yesterday I saw the bright sunshine, got dressed in shorts, and then spent the day freezing.  Guess it's time to put the summer clothes away.

 Except for this military vest (similar).  I bought it during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, and paired with this curved hem tee and cropped jeans, it's the perfect transition piece.  

 Does anyone else have as much trouble with the half tuck as I do?  I love the look but can never get it quite right.  I think I've finally mastered it with some help from this post on babble.com.


Have a wonderful Wednesday!

    The military vest is such a great year round piece! I keep getting deceived by the sun too, although yesterday it turned out to be 80 degrees and I was wearing a sweater! Thanks for sharing the half tuck tip!

      I'm still reminding myself that leopard is a neutral...
