Baronet Beaded Vest

Here is another beautiful Fall vest I had been coveting but was a little too much $$ full price but with 25% off sweaters and additional 30% off card member promo it had to be mine.

Size XS, I say TTS. I think styled zipped is my favorite.

Side view.

Up close of the beading on the front.

The beading is a little heavy so when it's not zipped up I don't 100% love the way it hangs but it could also be that I don't have anything of substantial weight underneath to help with that. Perhaps layered over sweaters it will be different.

Completely a keeper and recommend. I also took advantage of the free gift wrapping and had it wrapped for myself....I'm bad....I actually didn't mean to I was toying around with it but then couldn't figure out how to delete it. Luckily I can save the box for a gift I give this year.

Please ignore my ultra-knit sweat pants although I do recommend them as well, super comfortable!

  2. The ultra-knit stuff is awesome Kater! I think I have 10 pairs of the pants. I always wait until after Christmas when they get marked down and end up getting them for around $10-$15 a pair. I'm addicted!

    Thanks RosaLovesDC! :)

  4. Ok, fine, I'm going to get me some of those pants as well. No arm-twisting needed. :p

  5. Love this vest. I like the mix of bling and casual style. I think it's a great alternative to the puffy vest look. Is this a relatively new item or do I just not look that closely at things even though I'm on jcrew.com a million times a day? Probably the latter.

  10. I LOVE this. It looks great opened and closed. This is now on my wish list. I didn't think I could find a vest that I liked better than the Electra. This is it!
