This vest is a faux leather. I haven't really seen any good lower or mid-range white/cream fabric moto vests out there.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1273904 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 21:45:15 +0000 Anonymous 1273904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool outfit!&nbsp; You have the vest I've been looking for (if it is fabric).&nbsp; Where did you find it?&nbsp; (Oops, I see it in the answer to Suz.)&nbsp; The shoes are beautiful too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1273900 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 21:38:10 +0000 viva 1273900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that the shoes are suede.

I think I'll be scaling back how oversized my future purchases are, though certainly continue to wear the more oversized things I already have.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1273757 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 18:39:30 +0000 pil 1273757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great shoes and another terrific outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1273752 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 18:31:12 +0000 Anonymous 1273752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the easy, slightly slouchy, relaxed vibe of your outfit Aida.

I think the shapes and proportions are great, (as usual.) It's always a nice surprise to see the polished footwear with your casual ensembles. The one-roll- up on the pants works perfectly with the ankle straps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1272713 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 13:23:14 +0000 kkards 1272713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;i like the mix of the tonal creams and whites. i like the way they build on each other and the effect of the different textures. love the plaid with this.

Love how the moto contrasts the sequins. Would you get annoyed if I copied all your outfits? Lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1272679 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 11:46:58 +0000 Sveta 1272679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is awesome, Aida! From ankle strap suede pumps to silky slouchy pants to the cool moto vest... I would copy it in a heartbeat if I had the right pieces for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271930 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 03:24:29 +0000 kellygirl 1271930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So gorgeous and effortlessly stylish! Love the moto vest on you. I really need to figure out how to get mine into rotation. Mine is very similar and also from HM. Must study your example! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271924 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 03:19:03 +0000 Aida 1271924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you&nbsp;very much&nbsp;ladies! :D</p> <p>Elizabeth, my sequin top is ivory but I think the one that I posted in the finds is actually white. So it could be worth a try for you!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271876 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 02:18:01 +0000 Elizabeth P 1271876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And another great one! Love those pants. </p> <p>So is that top ivory then? I have it "under consideration" from a previous post, but I'm a white girl. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271872 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 02:15:28 +0000 Isis 1271872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything about this.&nbsp; The pattern on the clutch is the perfect finishing touch.&nbsp; I love the way you put it, to add "a little extra chaos".&nbsp; So good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271871 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 02:14:15 +0000 Karie 1271871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those pants are fantastic, and they look perfect with the vest.

Is hard to pick favorites from your always great outfits but this one really has me drooling over it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271844 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 01:43:30 +0000 Aida 1271844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you&nbsp;Missey and Suz!</p> <p>Suz, the vest was from H&amp;M last spring so unfortunately isn't currently available. Those pants actually had a matching blazer which I regret not purchasing. I don't know if I'd wear them together often, but the print is one of my favorites and the material is soooo nice.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271823 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 01:23:48 +0000 Suz 1271823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is stunning! I have such a soft spot for those pants; I've never seen an outfit including them that I didn't like. But this is beyond brilliant. I agree about the shoes.&nbsp;</p> <p>What is the vest? Is it still available?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271814 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 01:17:37 +0000 Missey 1271814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Aida!&nbsp; Ahead of the curve and lovely as always!&nbsp; You have a very well put together style and a great eye for details...I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0605-sort-of-summer-vest#post-1271806 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 01:14:43 +0000 Aida 1271806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I&nbsp;say "sort of summer" because it's not super warm, just in the low 70s; I love wearing my sleeveless vests over sleeveless tops in mild weather, it's especially comfortable for days where a jacket would be too much and I’m not in the mood for sleeves (like today). Coincidentally I wore this the day before Angie's great <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2014/06/06/ensemble-vest-casual-pants-peep-toe-booties" rel="nofollow">summer vest ensemble post</a> (and before seeing <i>that</i> day's post about <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2014/06/05/the-trending-summer-vest" rel="nofollow">summer vests</a>) ^^ No peep toe booties for the outfit but I did keep with the ankle interest, opting for ankle-strap pumps and rolling the hems of the trousers.</p> <p>This cream moto vest is rather oversized when open, and somewhat oversized zipped up. To keep it a bit more streamlined looking, I wore a tonal ivory sequined top beneath it. I didn't want to wear jeans, so I pulled out these very relaxed, lightweight trousers; also found the hectic checks a fun match for the sequins. The hems are turned up once, though it's not super noticeable, which puts them just above the ankle straps of the pumps. Last year I'd have worn this with white pumps, and even though I've only had these pumps a short time, I can already tell that I'll enjoy the added texture (suede) and color interest (light gray) that they'll add to my white-heavy outfits. Had extra wild hair, so I opted for simple silver circular earrings to echo the sequins and coral lip gloss. Chose the neon-streaked black clutch to add a little extra chaos and pick up on the hectic plaid of the pants.</p> <p>Available items collected below.
