Vested (See Jane Wear)

| Old Navy vest, F21 tank, Saint Grace maxi skirt (similar), Prada wedges, Chloe bag (similar) |
Sometimes, I think mid-summer dressing can be monotonous; it seems like the only options are dresses shorts. Rinse and repeat. (Note: no complaints from me, though–I dream about 88 degree days for about nine months out of the year!) Come July, I’m normally in a clothing rut. I’m hoping this lightweight vest will help me spice up the ol’ wardrobe; it’s the lightweight layering piece that I probably don’t need–perfect!
What a cute casual outfit. I love your striped skirt. ๐

Love the vest! Sometimes Old Navy's vests can be a little mom-ish, but this is the perfect cut and wash.

really love the long striped maxi, and the vest looks great for layering; unfortunately, here in the nyc metropolitan area, it is so hot and so humid, i would die with any layer on. i see some ladies still work the layers around here, and either they have no sweat glands, anywhere on their bodies, or they ignore them and are brutally uncomfortable.

gorgoeus! love the skirt and the denim vest ๐ xx
Haha, I loved that phrase "it's the lightweight layering piece I probably don't need – perfect!" That makes me feel better about a lot of my recent summer purchases!
Love the striped skirt. I have the same one and I have been wearing it high-waisted with a skinny red belt and black tank with a few swipes of red lipstick. Probably too wintery for summer, oh well!
I feel the exact same way about summer dressing. I can't deal with the humidity in New York and half the time I end up in a tank top and shorts which I find so dull.
I love the idea of adding a lightweight vest, however! Great find!
Very cute, summer-y outfit! I'm also looking at investing on a jean jacket and vest… It's one of those pieces that I keep NOT buying. – Carla
Love this look – beautiful skirt!

I agree. I feel like it's harder to create interesting outfits when you can't layer because of the heat! The denim vest looks great though!

Adorable outfit! I have a denim vest too and I love how simple it can be to transform an outfit with it.
Also, I need that bag. ๐

I couldn't agree with you more! As much as I look forward to summer (every year), I keep forgetting how the heat and humidity (I'm in NYC) makes it unbearable to wear anything other than dresses or shorts/skirts and a loose tank. That denim vest is such a great buy and pulls together your look quite nicely – I might have to pick one up myself. Thanks for the inspiration!

I've been sticking with casual, breezy garments lately…it's 100 degrees in Mpls today! Just wore my striped maxi this weekend…am definitely going to take your cue and throw on some denim on top next time.

Love. The vest with the striped maxi skirt is great. Been looking for a great affordable jean vest for a while now! It definitely adds something to a plain old dress ๐

I too spend the entire year wishing for summer weather, and I get a bit bored of my clothes by July. Still, I wouldn't want to ever rush away the hot summer weather ๐

love your beachy hair!
I like the vest! I feel the opposite about summer clothing- I find winter dressing to be boring- just jeans and sweaters. I guess you could make the argument about any season, really. Your skirt reminded me that I need to put some use into my maxi dresses.
You look absolutely chic in that outfit!!
