Utility Vest & White Dress

January 27, 2016

Utility Vest and White Dress outfit
Green Military Vest Jacket
It's quite nice that we've been having some pleasant winter days rather than cold that would require donning chunky coats and jackets. I was able to get away with a feathered, white dress and showing some legs which is so beautiful and classy and I can imagine this piece being relevant in my collection even seasons later. I prefer medium-long sleeved clothing anyway and this one's got some medium sized sleeves with the most intricate detailed designs on them. I like the whole idea of an item being really dainty that can only be appreciated from up close. That says a lot about my personal style, because I tend to pick up pieces which are more detailed than they appear.
I layered it with my utility green vest and that's all I needed to get me covered and snug against the cold winds blowing. The shoes I've got on with this outfit, are a new favourite. These 70's Block Heels with ankle straps(or as I like to call them 'elf shoes') was a Christmas gift and I couldn't have been more happy with these. It has a crocodile patterned burgundy faux leather which ends in a nice, long point. I always prefer flats over high heels and the only times that I do wear heels I like to opt for blocks and platforms, however these ones are so lightweight that it almost didn't feel like I was wearing a good chunky heel at all. Now, that would be perceived in different ways by people when determining it's quality, but it gets a big thumbs up from me. It's something I can actually walk miles into the sunset. Hurray!

  11. I'm loving the juxtaposition of the utility vest and dress! While I do opt for heels more so than I do flats, I definitely go for platforms and chunks more than stilettos!
