The Versatile Crochet Vest Trend

Hello, and thanks so much for stopping by my blog, today!

There seems to be a lot of retro inspiration this fall
 I am seeing a continuation of all things Y2K and reminiscent of the 70's
 adapted for this season 
I especially like the 70's look crochet vest trend
These vests were big during the spring and summer worn alone,
and I am seeing lots of sleeveless and camisole style vests
in layered looks for the fall season

Here are two outfits with my interpretation of this trend
First, a cropped teal, tan and white striped crochet camisole style vest
layered over a teal midi dress
This dress doesn't get enough love 💕   
so I am happy to have found something fun to layer with it to give it more wear
I purchased the dress a number of years ago for a 50's event
and did it up with 50's Dior New Look style, but haven't worn it much since 
 
   

Such a bow!


Carrying my ivory curved handle bag


For jewelry I chose a two tone butterfly necklace,
in keeping with the 70's and Y2K theme
Also wearing a twisted gold tone bangle 
and embossed gold tone stud earrings


 Taupe cross strap block heel pumps to complete this decade hopping outfit!



Another outfit with a crochet piece snagged from summer
 It is a horizontal zig zag pattern sleeveless vest, 
in shades of blue, peach and white
Worn over a white tailored shirt, for fall, with dark wash straight leg denim jeans 


I think the vest gives this outfit a retro vibe-
sort of 70's and Missoni-esque 


Carrying my peachy-pink heart shaped handle bag 


I chose a few basic accessories:
A silver tone multi band cuff bracelet, thick textured hoop earrings
and a blue and white polka dot scarf for my hair


Nude lace up wing tip oxfords to finish this timeless look



Starting to feel the autumn 🍂 🍃 🍁  vibes
although most of the leaves are still green and on the trees



Hope everyone enjoys their week!

These are great interpretations of the trend. The teal is gorgeous, and I really like the combination of masculine/feminine in the pants look. I wish I had those nude wingtips!

I would have thought that first vest was made to be paired with your teal dress! They look marvelous together! Love your layering game here!

I adore the tonal look of the vest with dress. This is such a great interpretation of the trend. Drooling over the nude brogues!

I have been looking at maybe getting an oversized vest. I don't have any vests at all and they can be fun to change up a look

I've tried this trend before but I just can't pull it off. You look awesome in it though, I really like the first outfit with it layered over the dress - so pretty and a perfect pairing of the teal knit and dress together!

Thank you for joining the Weekday Wear Link Up! Hope you had a lovely weekend :) It's a 3 day one here which is awesome.

I love your vests! The first one looks like it's part of the dress, such a great pairing. I have several knitted and crocheted vests in various colours. Thanks for linking up!
