Clothed with Grace: Herringbone Vest

Herringbone Vest

If you follow me on Instagram, you already got a sneak peek at this vest (which is now sold out).....I've worn it three times since getting it and could probably devote a whole Pinterest board to pinned looks I have for inspiration. Today I decided to pair it with this in a solid chambray and my black jeans with boots.  It was a super cozy and easy look, but I totally felt put-together.  This outfit combo has quickly become a favorite, I hope you all don't tire of it too soon, because I think you'll see a lot of variations this winter. : )

*Important note to all who missed the J.Crew version and the Coldwater Creek version: Shopko is selling the perfect dup for under $20 here. I'm not going to lie, I'm a little jealous of all of you who can score this at such a crazy cheap price!









Vest: Coldwater Creek $50 almost exact for under $20!
Chambray: $20  similar 
Necklace: Stella and Dot same
Bracelets: Stella and Dot same
Jeans: Old Navy $15 same
Boots: Born (three years old) similar

  4. I was so mad I didn't order this vest immediately because it was sold out by the time I got home (and there was a Coldwater Creek groupon that day)! I might have to run over to ShopKo on my lunch because that is a great alternative! I love this outfit!

  5. I adore this vest - I think it might be time for me to make the plunge now that there is one available for $20! I do prefer yours without the big detailed pockets, though...maybe I'll keep digging around.

  11. Gosh how much I want a Herringbone or Tweed Vest. I prefer yours without the large pockets. And your new Chambray Shirt looks a lot like mine. This is such a Chic, Comfy, Casual Outfit. =)

    I just styled my new Favorite Pants 6 different ways. See them in my latest post.

    Have a Great Weekend, Ginny!

  12. I wish I had ordered this vest when I saw your Instagram post about it! It's so cute, and I bet it will be versatile too.

  13. I noticed a wave of herringbone vest pins from you :) I've seen the ShopKo links before, but wasn't sure whether it was even a legit site. I can't believe Coldwater Creek had such a great dupe. Awesome!

  14. Oh my goodness Ginny...I had been oogling over the J.Crew version for the longest time but wasn't willing to fork over the $$$...thank you for hunting down a MUCH cheaper alternative! (It must be popular- out of stock online...but I am going to check stores nearby!) Would love to see the ways you remix this for outfit inspiration!
