Your summer style is enviable. Easy, real, and yet quietly studied.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/camp-vest-keep-or-toss-my-orphan#post-1002513 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 20:18:10 +0000 texstyle 1002513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As mtgrl suggested I went to pinterest and looked up cargo vest and found some ideas and inspiration, so I thought I'd share. (thanks again)</p> <p>Some ideas I saw:</p> <p>Cargo vest ...<br />with a chambray shirt and sparkly skirt (I likely won't do the skirt but I think the idea is dressier pants and some feminine jewelry).</p> <p>over a turtleneck with several necklace strands (again the feminine side) and dark wash jeans or black pants</p> <p>with white jeans and a white top and deep brown belt (have all these items)</p> <p>with navy/white polka dot top (and I have the navy polka dot top)</p> <p>with a deep yellow long sleeve top, leopard scarf and navy/white polka dot skirt - and it looked good with all that going on.</p> <p>The outfit with the leopard scarf made me think ahead to fall when I can try the leopard print scarf I bought or the leopard print jcrew blouse (Ingunn's twin) with my olive utility jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/camp-vest-keep-or-toss-my-orphan#post-1002498 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 19:59:39 +0000 shedev 1002498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd really like&nbsp;the vest styled in a juxtaposition, like the putting me together link. Now I kinda&nbsp;want an olive vest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/camp-vest-keep-or-toss-my-orphan#post-1002376 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 16:56:52 +0000 Sara L. 1002376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the vest has potential, but you'll have to be careful to not style it too casually to avoid the hunting/fishing comments. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/camp-vest-keep-or-toss-my-orphan#post-1002275 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 15:06:38 +0000 texstyle 1002275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Ceit and Lantana, and&nbsp; yes mtgirl, that is great inspiration too - thank you for the link! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/camp-vest-keep-or-toss-my-orphan#post-1002267 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 14:57:17 +0000 Anonymous 1002267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like your vest with the striped top. I have a vest like that and wear it with a casual knit skirt and a tank top. It is adorable with the navy striped skirt I have. </p> <p>Similar to this:</p> <p><a href="http://www.puttingmetogether.com/2012/08/sway-chic-review.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.puttingmetogether.c.....eview.html</a></p> <p>I think my vest is longer...so I am not sure how proportions play into this, but I would try it over a dress and over a chambray shirt. I can't figure out how to link my Pinterest board, but I searched for cargo vest and pinned some ideas from there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/camp-vest-keep-or-toss-my-orphan#post-1002262 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 14:51:44 +0000 Lantana 1002262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, keep. For inspiration, check out Angie's ensembles board on Pinterest, in particular the casual vest ensemble but also the combat pants, white top and red accents ensemble, which will suggest great colour combos for your olive vest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/camp-vest-keep-or-toss-my-orphan#post-1002253 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 14:40:52 +0000 Anonymous 1002253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it for you for summer! I like how you have styled it. Pretty necklace too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/camp-vest-keep-or-toss-my-orphan#post-1002251 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 14:37:11 +0000 texstyle 1002251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have any of you been watching that show "Camp"? Well, last week I think I saw the main actress (name escapes me) wearing an olive vest with a tank under it and khaki shorts and I remembered I had this vest but have only worn it like 2 times.&nbsp; </p> <p>It's been pretty much an orphan and I dug it out of the holding drawer just to see if I might get a fresh look by copying the "Camp" look.</p> <p>I kind of like it - I've tried many vests that have not worked for me at all. But I'm still not sure.</p> <p>What do you think? Is it wearable? Any suggestions on other styling? I've worn it over a long sleeved white tee and jeans in the fall and I liked it but I got the "looks a little&nbsp;like you're going hunting" comment from the DH.</p> <p>The close up is of a simple $2 garage sale necklace I picked up a few years ago and like to wear when I've feeling light hearted and "summery." It reminds me of the ocean and our many visits there. </p>
