I’m loving these. I had a blue Lambswool Benetton one in high school that I wore over my dad’s old shirts all of the time.

I bought this in January and I am loving it--reminds me of those ladies you see in museums with chunky necklaces on....

I bought a Madewell one last year that I could never make work, but you’re inspiring me to try harder!

They are everywhere, aren't they? Funny timing b/c I saw the cutest one at the Levis store today. https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/clothing/women/shirts-blouses-tops/bluebell-cable-sweater-vest/p/0012J0000

The Quince and Cos would be my picks here.

Would love ideas for styling the vest. Love it with a tee but does it really look cool over a non-white button down?

I like the way they look over button-downs a lot.

I usually avoid vests because they don't always work well with my big boobs, but some of these look loose enough that they might work. I did a lot of oohing and aahing at this post, too! Especially the Frank & Eileen one, but holy cow is that expensive for what it is.

I have a vintage men's ombre (yellow, gray, black) argyle, Miu Miu that I wear all the time (half tucked). I also have another bright-colored patterned one that I wear less often. I like tomboy style, so I vest regardless of trend.

Sign me up for this! I bought 2 this year. One vintage and one from a hand knitter on Etsy!

i've got the jcrew and will caution that it is very cropped so if that's not your thing this might not be your favorite. cute with higher rise jeans though :)
