The sweater vest is trending hard at the moment and I must admit it is a fun way to spice up your wardrobe. Much like the dad sneaker it is one of those trends you thought you would hate, but you find yourself warming up to it, and then straight up falling in love. The trend is not new per say, but this season it is less fitted than we have seen in the past with a chunkier knit. The sillhoutte is boxier and more slouched, and the palette is trending towards neutrals. We are seeing some patterns but solids dominate for fall and winter with beige, tan and muted shades taking center stage.
The sweater vest is quite versatile and can be worn over a button down tops, turtle necks, and dresses. It can be paired with jeans, trousers, wide leg pants and skirts. Really the options are limitless which is what makes the sweater vest so fun. Take a basic button down and denim skirt and knee high boots, cute look for sure. But, add a slouchy sweater vest and you just took your outfit of the day to a whole new level. What say you? Do you like this trend? Do you own a sweater vest? If not would you consider getting one? I have my eye on this one from Shein.

I remember owning several knit vests. It looks beautiful and adds warmth to the body in winter or rainy season in my country.

I´m Fan of Vests since ages, since the weren´t a trend yet and I love all these inspirations. Thank you so much for sharing. I send you all my thoughts. All the best and love from Austria, x S.Mirli https://www.mirlime.at
I like the look on others but not on me, so I’ll sit this one out. But I love the idea of layering like this and also go for a boxier silhouette. Definitely a fun way of embracing a traditional clothing piece in a more modern way! Xx
Yes… I’m loving these cozy and fashionable sweater vests! They’re so chic and comfortable at the same time! They really are so versatile, and perfect for the changing seasons when the weather is cooling down.
I personally love this trend. I love in a cold climate so it makes even more sense to me. it looks super stylish and doesn’t give trouble trying to fit my hands into the sleeves
I actually scored an oversized sweater vest recently and am excited to style it for a shoot! I love the way it looks with tall boots and a white button-up underneath!
Omg you’re totally right.. it’s one of those trends you thought you wouldn’t be a fan of but dig it deep down! Lol. Just like chunky sneakers…it took me a minute to grasp the trend but I will say, I love my chunky adidas!
I have yet to commit to the sweater vest trend but I see it in my future lol! Thanks for sharing with us doll!!
I really love sweater vests, Allie! I’ve knitted a few for my kids, and have been meaning to make a Fair Isle one for myself. Your post just reminded me it’s time to get to it!
Wow, amazing pictures and inspirations, dear Allie! I love this trend and recently posted even an outfit with such a sweater vest!

My sincere condolences on the passing of your mom, my dear friend. I have been a little MIA myself and haven’t been doing my usual commenting/posting, and just saw your post a moment ago. Sending SO much love and prayers your way!
I really don’t know if I like sweater vest… I think that for my style it doesn’t really fit. But for those who are more fashion I think it is interesting.
I hope you’re feeling much better and first of all I’m happy to know that you got the needed amount. Sending you a virtual hug.
And I have seen this trend a lot on Instagram, blogs and editorials a lot! I want to get a similar vest but still looking for the perfect option, the blue one would work for me! I remember I use to have a lot of similar vests when I was a kid…. so in the end fashion always comes and goes 🙂
The sweater vest is definitely and underrated piece, they are perfect for the weather here in LA where a full sweater isn’t always necessary. x ~Zia http://www.thehuntercollector.com
I wish I could pull this off – it looks great on these ladies but I know from experience it doesn’t suit me at all! I think you have to be taller, haha!
Hope that you are having a lovely weekend! Another hot one here!
Where I am, I cannot try this trend as it will actually roast like a Thanksgiving Turkey. Bookmarking this page for mt next trip to a cooler climate.
You always have the best picks!
