"The Low-Down on Buying and How Look Stylish in Denim Vests"

Denim Vest Outfit
Denim Vest/Yes Style


Denim vests. Oh yes, I do have to admit that these fashion vests can stir some western trailer trash vibe which doesn't appeal to most women. But hey, trailer trash style happens to be one of the hottest trends all-year-around! It's a controversial trend but if you wear it right and it looks good on you then it shouldn't be an issue ;-)

The denim vest trend just keeps showing itself off whenever the warmer months peeks around the corner. But that's because it looks so darn cute yet cool and casual with your summer dress, black pants or just a plain tee or tank top!

You can find these casual vests in various designs, from the oversized to tiny cropped style, to different embellishments and hip denim washed and effects.

To be quite honest, if you want to pull off the look you need a little bit of gusto in your style because you'll get some extra stares. There's just something about wearing denim the other way around, on top instead of bottom y'know, that catches the eye.

    Minikiss icon It's ok to wear blue denim bottom with blue denim top

    But beware of glares and stares from people! The trick here is to keep the rest of your outfit at a minimum with a simple tee and shoes, and try to offset the costume-look with trendy accessories such as a long pendant necklace, scarf, belt or a chic bracelet. It's not for the shy fashionistas but for those who wants to create a strong fashion statement. Dark blue with light blue denim look good together as well!

    Minikiss icon The best way to wear it

    Is to wear it with clothing that isn't blue denim. It looks super-chic paired with black, white, grey or khaki-colored bottom. It creates a nice balance of both casual and chic.

    Minikiss icon Experiment with different styles

    Feeling frisky? Try different vest lengths, washes (dark blue, medium blue, light blue, acid, stonewashed,) and effects (ripped, distressed)

    Minikiss icon Don't be afraid to mix and match.

    Denim vests are a stylish match for print tees, camisoles, cute blouses, floral dresses, maxi dresses and shorts.

    Minikiss icon When wearing it with a basic tee

    top it off with interesting accessories like necklaces, scarves, earrings, headband, etc. Add a little bit of personality!

    Minikiss icon Dress your body shape.

    That means choose a cut that flatter your body shape. Like for example, a short/cropped vest with rounded neck looks best on those with wider bottoms (pear shape with curves) because it balances out the silhouette. Long tops in general will only draw attention to the hips. However, a regular vest with thicker strap suits those with wider shoulders compared to hips.

    Minikiss icon A V-neck slims down your figure and upper body. So if your shoulder, bust and torso are your problem-areas consider a v-neck for a slimming and flattering effect.
