Clothed with Grace: Stripes and Vests

Stripes and Vests

I recently found this utility vest at JC Penney and I absolutely love how it goes with this J.Crew Factory shirt I found shopping the after Christmas sales.  I wore this last weekend and it was perfect for going to the library with Grant and they having a playdate after nap time.  I also got this top in orange and know I'll try that combo next.  I feel like having easy weekend pieces like this is essential.  I have a bunch of great basics for summer time, but was really lacking in the winter department, these new pieces will definitely get their wear!










Vest: Ana at JC Penney $7 same
Top: J.Crew Factory $10  same
Necklace: Stella and Dot same
Bracelets: Stella and Dot RenegadeUrbane
Watch: Citizen same
jeans: Old Navy $19 similar
Boots: Wanted $29 (via eBay) almost exact

  9. I can't believe the deal you got on that vest! I have one and love it but paid way too much on amazon.

    I have one in khaki and always feel like I need to be on a safari when I am wearing it

  11. I am the worst at winter dressing. I feel like I wear the same things for months. Pants tucked in boots or dress with tights (and probably more boots). This is adorable!

  14. What a great deal on that vest (which is so versatile for at least 3 seasons of wear)! I need to get to JCP in person this weekend (since deals are much better in store than online)!
