Can I just say that I love Michael Kors clothing? This vest is Michael Kors and it is absolutely fantastic. I wore a very cutesy shirt underneath with round, puffy sleeves to contrast the tweed color and coarse fabric of the vest. I chose a pair of dark denim shorts to add another dimension to the color scheme and theme which allowed for the navy blue and white Keds I had on. The Keds were a nice touch for they keep the outfit from being too girly or impractical. This necklace is making another appearance because it's one of my favorites and it looks lovely with this pinstripe shirt and silver/white bead bracelet. The jewelry is a great addition; it stands out but is still fairly simple. For this outfit, that's all it should do. Some plain outfits can use statement pieces to take them to the next level and they can then be worn to fancier social settings. The shirt, vest, necklace, and bracelet were all yard sale finds, spectacular ones, if I may say so. The shorts came from TJ Maxx so many years ago it's not even funny. The shoes were a gift, so price-wise, who knows.

Pretty and practical don't have to be separate entities. They can coexist if you can put in the effort.
