When it comes to choosing the right linen vest, it's important to consider both style and fit. Opt for a linen vest that complements your personal aesthetic and flatters your body shape. Whether you prefer a classic button-up style that is on-trend or a more relaxed, open-front design, select a linen vest that makes you feel confident and comfortable. Remember, the key is to choose a vest that you can easily mix and match with your existing wardrobe for versatile styling options. As you master the art of choosing the perfect linen vest, you'll be well on your way to creating flawless outfits with ease.
Layering your linen vest is key to creating stylish and dynamic outfits. To layer like a pro, start with a solid base, such as a simple top or dress that complements your linen vest. Consider different textures and lengths to add interest and depth to your look. For a casual vibe, pair your linen vest with a basic tee and jeans, or elevate your outfit by layering it over a blouse and tailored pants. Experiment with different combinations to find what works best for your personal style.

Today, I kept it simple and started with a monochromatic base -a linen tee from Banana Republic and cargo jeans from Anthropologie. I added the linen vest from Madewell to create a third layer that elevates the outfit. I brought a raffia belt (old, similar here, here, and here) and a straw handbag from J. Crew to add texture to the outfit. Notice how Vince's platform sandals (old, similar here, here, and here) tie back to the raffia belt and keep the monochromatic outfit grounded.

When it comes to accessorizing your linen vest, think about the impact you want to make with your outfit. Accessories can elevate your look and add a touch of personality to your ensemble. Consider adding a statement necklace or a chunky bracelet to draw attention to your linen vest. Play with different accessories like scarves, belts, or hats to create a unique and stylish outfit that reflects your individuality. By strategically choosing your accessories, you can complement your linen vest and take your styling to the next level. Mixing and matching with your wardrobe becomes even more exciting when you experiment with different accessories to create a cohesive and visually appealing look. I kept it simple today with a pair of crystal stud earrings, but adding a brooch or a straw hat would also be a good possibility.
