I’d like to take credit for the fact that my vest, sweater, and trousers all have some form of diamond shapes on them – but quite honestly, I didn’t even notice until I was editing these photos. So we’ll call it a happy accident. This outfit came together more so for the fact that yesterday had a hint of warmth to it and I wanted to sneak by without a real jacket (those days are numbered) and also because I’ve owned this quilted vest for about 2 years now and never found a proper way to wear it. I always like the look of quilted puffer vests on other people, but something about them on myself has never felt right. I decided to dress it up a little with prints, heels, and a pop of color (basically I gave it the typical Steele Maiden treatment) and turns out? I kind of love it. Perfect for a weekend stroll when I want to look more put together than a pair of ripped up jeans, and in the right office I think this could even pass for a work day look. Which is a good thing, since our old friend Monday just came back around.
