Why did I wait this long to buy this vest?!  That’s what I would really like to know, because now that I have it I am obsessed.  I teamed up with Nordstrom to bring you all this post and I really wanted to share a look that was super practical for me.  A look that is exactly what I reach for on the weekends time and time again.  Annnd that’s why I came across this vest!  Leggings and a vest are my favorite go-to items for Saturday and Sunday when running errands and grabbing morning coffee so I was on the hunt for a new vest that was not only a neutral but also soft and cuddly.  This one is just that.  FYI–size up! [I went up two sizes actually]  I think Patagonia always runs a bit small so I ordered a small and medium in this and ended up keeping the medium because I really wanted it to be a bit over-sized rather than fitted.

My top is actually a light-weight sweater and it’s a GREAT basic to have in your closet.  I love the laid back fit and I know I’ll be happy to have it to pair with jeans and a scarf too.  Plus the price is hard to beat!  I’ve found that pairing something like this with leggings and tennis shoes can make me feel a lot more put together than an old t-shirt.

These leggings are another great high-rise find!  The beauty of them is how basic they are.  ps, these are actually longer in length on me.  I have them turned up in these photos to be right above my ankle (I do that often with leggings) but I’ll wear them both ways depending on the chill factor. I got an xs.

So for all of you ladies that have a dressier outfit on (and full make up rather than sunglasses, ha) when you grocery shop and run to Starbucks–I give you props.  For me, it will probably always be a casual look like this.  If you’re anything like me then give these basics a try.  They don’t disappoint!
