Help me find...

Sarah

Ladies, I have been ALL over online and in stores trying to find a basic grey sweater vest (cropped).
Do these not exist anymore?
If you happen to see one, could you please let me know?
Thanks!

Hi sarah, I know that I have seen them, but more in the Fall.

This one is very cute, but it is grey argyle :

Though this one is not a sweater, I think that it is cute :

One final suggestions, I would keep my eye out in large boys departments.

Good Luck, I will keep my eye out for others !!!

I LOVE the fact that I can "shop" so other people can buy : )

Thanks so much for looking! I should have specified that I am looking for a pull over style, v-neck.
I do like the Max Studio one, but I'm afraid it would be too long over a button down with a pencil skirt.
Some of the ones you posted Isabel are really close!

Sarah - this is a tough one , especially since tops seem to be trending longer. A good bet will be to get a boys vest - places in particular that sell school uniforms. Ralph Lauren always has great boys vests.

Lastly, how abot looking for a "sleeveless sweater" or using Angie's great idea of using a shirt as a vest? She did that great sheer polka dot sleeveless top as a vest. I really like BRs tuxedo tank and it looks as if you could shorten it if needed.

Sarah, here are a couple of examples of what I am talking about ( ironically, a JJill catalogue arrived right after I posted ( a seamstress could shorten ) :

Not exactly "the look", but it could hold you over til Fall when the sweater vests come out again : )
