So lately there has been one fashion trend that I've been dying to try/I'm scared to death of: the puffer vest. It's always brought back memories of a very shiny, very puffy vest I wore in middle school back when this was the trend. Oh, and I am so glad there aren't any pictures of my attempt at fashion. It was horrendous. Add to this a male friend whose obsession with vests only dissuaded me from giving the vest another chance.
However, after seeing a girl who styled the vest in a very Equestrian, very Kentucky Southern kind of way, I decided it was time to face my fears and give this vest thing another try. J. Crew had some perfect vest options that showed the puffer vest styled to perfection...

I absolutely love how they manage to make the vest look effortless and cool, and the layering is fantastic!
I'm also loving the Equestrian look of the vest in these pictures...

I'm definitely a Kentucky girl, and I just love anything associated with the classic Equestrian look.
So that's what has me willing to take a fashion risk, and I'm sure I'll be getting some interesting comments from my co-workers! So, here goes nothing...I'll try to post a picture of how I styled the vest tomorrow, hope all goes well! If not, I'm blaming you, J. Crew.
