Styling and Profiling: Patterned Vest

I must apologize, primarily for being all talk and no action. I realize it is my duty as a thrifting fashion blogger to:
1. Deliver you the thrifted goods
and most importantly,
2. Show you how I/you can wear them!

So from this day forward, I hereby introduce the new weekly segment entitled "Styling and Profiling", in which I, you guessed it, show you how I put together outfits with things that I have acquired via the thrift store [and occasionally elsewhere].


This week to kick off the inaugural edition of S+P ( you'll soon realize I'm very prone to short forms...but isn't everyone in this generation?!) I will be showing you how I wore the lovely studious-looking vest that I purchased from my last visit to Goodwill at Islington. In case you need a refresher, check it out here.  

A bit of background

I kept this outfit pretty monochrome because I was going to school, and because I didn't want too much to distract from the vest as the statement piece.  But without further ado, here is this week's first official Styling and Profiling feature!
