flyaway cardi-vest- keep or return?

queenie

I found this sleeveless flyaway cardigan the other day. is it a keeper, or should I keep looking? Please be honest, I don't want to end up with another closet orphan. also, what is the correct length for these straight leg jeans with the heels? any longer and they don't seem to want to lay over the heel of the shoe, they just look sloppy (in my opinion) I just have them folded up so I can do any length...

I agree with Rute in that the vest has a strong boho vibe. I have seen the fly away vest in a light weight fabric that I thought was very pretty.
I also think the jeans hem needs to be much closer to the floor in the back.
You have a model figure for dressing. It looks like you can wear pretty much anything you like.

I'm not keen on the fringe. The second outfit looks fab x

thanks so much ladies for your input.... the sweater will go back.
San, thanks for the sweet compliment, but I really can't wear pretty much anything. Things look great on the hanger, and then.... well, you ladies know the frustration.

The sweater vest does look very boho and has a vintage feel. I really like your second outfit that seems an example of Angie's blog post today with waistcoat added. Cute!

I adore the second outfit! Super!

Not fond of the fringed waistcoat. I vote return. Boho things can be fab, but this item is not a full box of chocolates.
