Q&A about individual items, ensembles, and wardrobe

*edited with photo - Express moto vest - keep?

I was downtown today and tried on the Express Moto vest in black. I really liked how it looked and ended up purchasing it with a 30% off coupon. Now that I'm home - I'm wondering if this is a good buy for me.

I'd like to add a little 'edge' to my look and I'm trying to figure out what in my wardrobe I could wear this with - I know I can wear it with jeans, but I'm trying to figure out what kind of tops I could pair it with. Any suggestions? I have a pretty conservative wardrobe and I really would like to shake it up a bit...

Here's a photo:

Here's a pic. I really like it and want it to work, but not if I have to rework my entire existing wardrobe! Maybe it's not the right piece to add in right now?

It looks GREAT with the top you have on. Wow! Can you post it with some of the other options in your closet? But if I had to decide from this picture alone, I would say keep that baby!

It looks great over the button down, and if I'm not mistaken you have quite a few button downs, Julie. Could be a great way to add a little edge to them.
In terms of other outfits, do you have dresses you could try the vest with?

KEEP. It looks fabulous :0)

Not at the moment, no. I'm very low on dresses - I have a wrap dress and some summer dresses and that's it. I was thinking about wearing it with a black pencil skirt and some kind of girly blouse if I had one! :-)

Sounds good - try pencil skirt with button down and vest until you've found a girly blouse!

Keep! Perfect fit on you. I hope you find a million ways to wear it!

Thanks Ladies! I am definitely going to keep and at the NAS today I found a dress that just might work with it as well. Yay!
