Happy Mix it Monday! I don’t know about y’all but I’m on autopilot for the next two days until my Christmas vacation starts. Just two days of work, just two days of work…that’s my mantra. I’m pretty much ready to go with only a little more wrapping before I’m completely prepped. Do y’all have any more shopping left to do?
Vest: J.Crew, Chambray: Target, Pants: Gap, Boots: Ariat c/o, Bag: Michael Kors (MK option, look for less), Necklace: Stella & Dot Somervell, Bracelets: Stella & Dot Pave Arrow Cuff, Pyramid Stud Cuff
This J.Crew excursion vest is one of my current favorite layering pieces. It’s so easy to throw on over button downs of any kind, and it definitely adds some warmth (even though my hubby doubts how something sleeveless is actually a cool weather item).
Now I’d love to see how you’re remixing your wardrobe!

I have been loving all the vests this fall. I don’t have a puffer vest myself, but they look like they perfect layer!

I love this white vest and chambray combo! Great classic look. And I love your hair style too! Have a great Christmas week. ~Cynthia
Vests just work! They keep the core warm. I love vests because they’re not nearly as bulky as wearing a large coat and a vest, plus a scarf and hat keep me just as warm as a heavy coat.
Nice bag 🙂
Great casual outfit, Lauren! I especially love your braids. =)
