While I feel that it’s pretty straight forward to look put together when a pair of heels are thrown into the mix, lately I’ve been leaning towards casual comfort. It’s admittedly been a challenge to feel stylish when dressed in an ultra laid-back look, but I think that pieces like this new vest I found on clearance are key: it has a great silhouette, is cut at the right place, and is armed with lots of little details that draw the eye in for a closer look.
