Puffer vests are a classic piece to me . I have ownwed a black Tommy Hillfiger one for years , and I have worn it to work , to dates, to concerts…this winter I took it to a sky trip with me , and only wore it that way. Anyway , it’s nice to see them on the streets again .
I generally do not like these puffy vests, but this one seems to work: not too bulky, hugs the body, fits with the ‘sleek black’ look, so this ain’t bad.
Maybe it helps that she’s hot.
Adding a bulky layer to the torso but not the arms causes (I think) proportion distortions, creating an illusion of a ‘sausage body’, which is probably not what people want to do.
Wow, she looks great even though she’s wearing a couple of trends I don’t usually like: the skinny pants and the grey black color combination. But she looks beautiful and futuristic anyway!
I can’t tell where those boots came from, but they are fantastic. They’re shape is just right. And that’s a real success with a puffer vest. Usually they just look so . . . puffy!
She is adorable! The outfit is a little magazine-y though. I would like to see her in a vintage belted cotton dress and some Mary Janes. What a great figure she has for that and such a cute face to carry it off. She is wholesome and fresh, kind of cheerleader like, so I don’t like the cool edginess on her. Let’s see that puffer vest with a big wool dirndle skirt, black tights and some saddle oxfords. Rock what you’ve got.
I LOVE this jacket. I bought the White Apollo at Barney’s and loved it so much I bought this exact vest on shopbop.com. As was already said, it is by CB Sports, a brand I grew up with

I love the boots!.
The vest does not look interesting, looks like, well, a puffy vest. JCrew was selling these “shiny” vests last season.
Maybe incorporating color with an exagerated piece will do!

For some reason she looks good even though I don’t particularly like anything that she’s wearing

I seem to be the only one who thinks she looks incredibly ordinary…
And i’m not such a big fan of her gucci boots-skinny jeans combination, they make her (presumably) expensive boots looks cheap.

The boots are Balenciaga from about 5 years ago.

Never thought a puffer vest could look so chic. I love the way she paired it with skinny jeans (or pants) and made it work.
To Anon 10:21 AM – This is definitely not MTL right now, maybe if the Vest had sleeves though!

It is very hard to pull off the puffer vest look but she has done it making it look effortless.
