Fashion Tips For Men'S Vests

,

A very young trendsetter works the vest look.


The men's vest can be a difficult fashion item to pull off. It certainly is not for the insecure or self-conscious at heart. The sweater vest has long been a staple in men's golf fashion, but it is making its impact on mainstream style wear. It is not easy to avoid looking like a grandpa or a golfer, but with a little planning, the execution of the vest is achievable.


Patterns and Materials


You can wear simple patterned vests to create an effortlessly cool look. You will end up looking more grandpa golfer than trendy insider if you choose vest patterns that bog you down in busy stripes, checks or shapes. Try to steer clear of vests that have loud or contrasting patterns to simplify and sophisticate your look.


A vest's material can make a strong fashion statement as well. Solid wool vests are timeless and can be paired with solid-colored or patterned short-sleeve shirts. The heavier fabric of the wool vest suggests a seasonal period and makes for a suitable autumn look.


Button-up vests in cotton, linen or jersey fabrics can make the old-fashioned vest concept look trendy and stylish. These vests can be worn with the buttons open or closed depending on the wearer's discretion and the weather.


Accessories


Simple accessories can help accentuate your vest look. Aviator-style or classic frame sunglasses can give the sweater vest a hip vibe.


Black patent or leather shoes with a black belt can instantly sophisticate a pull-over or button vest.


You can dress up a vest by tucking a matching tie into the vest.


Vests are best complemented with long pants, slacks or jeans. If you are going for an upscale look, skinny jeans and dark denim make for a sophisticated vest outfit. For an informal outfit, opt for light-colored jeans, wider leg jeans and casual khakis.


The easiest go-to item when wearing a vest is a classic, clean, white short-sleeve T-shirt or V-neck. The simplicity of the shirt allows the vest to take prime focus.


Vest No-No's


Do not wear a vest by itself. This can make your outfit look thrown together at the last minute or a bit haphazard, as if you have forgotten to wear a shirt.


If you are on the larger side in the abdomen region, you may wish to reconsider wearing vests. Vests are meant to be slightly fitted in certain styles and can exacerbate your belly, making you look more dated than stylish. The vest can be unforgiving and unflattering on wider-framed figures.


Avoid leather, synthetic or plastic material when choosing vests. These materials can make the outfit look inexpensive or costume-like.
