This is another of the new vests I bought recently from Forever 21. My original idea for this vest was to wear it with the off-white dress I posted yesterday, but it's so narrow at the top that it really needs to be paired with something that has sleeves. I liked the effect of the black layers mingled with the gray; because there are black layers over as well as under the dress, it has sort of an optical illusion effect, as if you can't tell which pieces are separate and which are one. If you look carefully at the hem, you'll see that I also had my black and white polka dot skirt on under the dress.

I love all the layers in this. You're right, you can't tell what belongs to what, it meshes really well.
I like the layers. The vest and dress kind of look like one garment instead of two.
I saw the icon in my blogger list and at first I couldn't tell that this had so many layers, I thought it must be one dress.
I've always wanted to try to wear a tie with my outfits, the only problem is the outfit always ends up looking too masculine or simply SO feminine that the tie doesn't belong and looks awkward. So I love how you worked that in.
I'm partial to some tie action, so I'm loving this!
I am just LOVING this! The yellow tie totally pops against the wonderfully-layered neutrals.
Adore the tie with the whole look!
I love the yellow with the darker neutrals and the new hair color! It's a great accent! I'm still totally envious of those shoes, too. I wish Tsubo would make them again...
