The puffer vest, known across the blog world as a must have in your closet. I spend a lot of time reading blogs, I love it, seeing other’s interpretations of trends and styles and being turned on to fabulous finds! I’ve only been blogging myself a little over year, but have been an avid blog follower for the last five years or so. Often when I’m leaving comments, I accidentally sign my name ‘Broke’, which is totally my subconscious telling me, “this is what you will be if you buy everything you’re obsessing over from other blogs.” So, I try to maintain control, gather inspiration and pick my favorites. The puffer vest was one thing I knew I was going to add to my closet. I held out last year, being all, ‘I’m not going to conform.’ But, this year, I decided I held out long enough and grabbed this lovely Old Navy find which was around $20.00 with coupons, well below it’s coveted J. Crew counterpart. It won’t zip for long, but once it hits that point, I’m thinking it will still look fabulous on top of a simple tee and open button down…or with a scarf, statement necklace, so many possibilities.
Digressing as usual, getting back to what I’m really excited about for this post, the start of our weekly Wednesday ‘Oh, Hey Girl!’ link-up. Because oh, hey girl, we want to know, where did you get that?! I would love for every Wednesday to meet new bloggers and have more closets to swoon over. So link-up your recent fashion post today at the end of this post so we can give you a visit and be sure to visit some of the other links and find some new loves too!

TWINS. I totally didn’t want to “conform” last year, but I’ve bought 3 puffer vests this season (whoops)- & have yet to wear any thanks to Texas weather. 🙁 But you look adorable as usual! Love those shoes too. PS can I look like you when I’m pregnant?!
Adorable shoes and that vest is perfect for the weather right now! What lipstick are you wearing?:)
