I just can't get enough of this hot new trend! I do deem it one of the bigger trends that will take notice this Fall. But why wait till then, eh? Get on it now! I've really done my research this go-round, lady loves. And plan to have you RACING away from this here, post, just to go get yourself THE LONG VEST of your dreams!
Featured above, I've collaged three looks from Jeremy Laing, Alexander Wang and House of Holland. All three are sporting a long vest with trousers. Some WIDE-LEG, others skinny as can be. I love that the vests are extra long, loose and flowing. Easy to emulate as two of the three vested looks are layered over a t-shirt. There's some speedy-savvy-stylin' for you, way below and I want you to take notice of the BDG Boyfriend Sweater Vest which would be a perfect option for perfecting the trouser/long vest combo!

Now just above, we have three other, more highly sophisticated versions of the long vested look. Seen at 3.1 Phillip Lim, Dolce & Gabbana and Marni, the vests were paired with longer dresses and skirts. They were then layered over turtlenecks or collared shirts and all tied up with a killer leather belt! Please tell me you immediately took notice of the DOUBLE-WRAPPED BELT at 3.1? I have you trained, very well, my love! Yes, LADY-LIKE indeed...pair any sweater vest over a FULL SKIRT and TURTLENECK (or tank in the summer) and you're an easy target to be called, "One chic and preppy, princess!" Which speedy-savvy-stylin' vest catches my eye for this category? I'd have to say the Style&Co. Deep V-neck version and at $14.95, what a steal!

Last, but not least, we have three more versions from the Eley Kishimoto, Lacoste and Dsquared² Runways that make the Long Vest beyond versatile. It's the piece that catapults even plain-jane outfits into stellar and stylish ensembles. Notice the pairing of a mini-dress and longer vest...love that at Eley Kishimoto. How about the "boy meets girl" version at Lacoste...do you love? If not, just remove the tie and pair the entire look with some spring-worthy STRAP-HAPPY PLATFORMS and you're all sex and sophistication at once!
So there you have it, my amazing fashionistas! So simple to emulate and very easy to carry over from spring to summer to fall. I can guarantee you that you won't be the first lady-love you know to just wear a vest...but you might be the first to make it extra, extra LONG! Enjoy!
