Sweater vests are so versatile!

I'm obsessed with sweater vests and love wearing them with button-downs, t-shirts or over a dress. This one is such a great color and really pops. I received lots of compliments. It is on the shorter side by design so if you're looking for something oversized, I would recommend sizing up.

Cropped and cute

Didn’t show my belly with high waisted jeans unless I raised my arms. A little body around the waist so more flattering with high waisted fitted jeans.

Great color, fun way to spruce up every day wear

I wore this with a puff sleeve button up for a casual day in the office! Love the crop as it fit perfectly for high waisted pants. Fun color!

Cute and casual

This was a fun and casual sweater vest. It is quite cropped but easy to wear with high waisted jeans. It wasn’t too tight under the armpits which made it easier to wear with a more relaxed button down underneath.

Opens up so many possibilities. I’ve worn it layered and alone. Not too hot and perfect for this summer-into-fall confusion weather.

Mustard

Paired with Khaite Darcy and a JCrew button down with sequin detailing at the sides since the arm holes are wide. Cropped length is great for petites to pair with a super high waist. Color is mustard-- pairs beautifully with bronze, blue, chestnut, mahogany.

This crop vest matched my company's logo so I wore it to work - dress up or down. Be advised it's cropped so shorter than you'd expect.

Prep school hip

Got a lot of wear out of this sweater vest paired with a crisp boyfriend button down the vest works great by itself or with jackets and coats of all types. It is short and looks weird by itself so a short underneath or high waisted jeans are essential
