I liked this black hoodie vest the first time I saw it for its utility and simple design. The hood helps me shield from rain. The thick cotton material helps shield from wind. Whenever I go out in a chilly weather I can just put it on and go. So easy! I can wear it even in mildly warm weather for extra style!

Let's switch gears and take a look at a different type of fashion - the English gentleman style. This dark blue sweater vest I got here from Club Monaco is not your typical cool and stylish apparel that will impress people with its radical design. It is better suited for when you are going for a more sophisticated look. It's not a bad idea once in a while to try out a different approach than your routine and overly familiar dress style. Who knows, you just might pleasantly surprise your peers. With this reasoning, I bought this vest and was content with the purchase after exploring my options with it. Plus it looked nice on the mannequin.

This dark blue sweater vest is a pullover that features a slightly rising V-neck collar. Visual details include two sets of color stripes, one white and one gray, tracing along the collar as well as the waistline right above the knit waist. The vest itself is knitted with a cable braid pattern and feels thick and warm just like a sweater.

Since I was aiming for the refined look of an English gentleman, I tried this sweater vest on top of my blue dress shirt and the result was more than satisfactory. The vest collar is designed to cover the shirt collar but it's your choice if you want to leave the shirt collar in or out. It goes well with white pants and you will end up looking positively suave if everything goes right. I wore this outfit and went to a meeting with my colleagues at a local cafe and quite enjoyed the extra attention I gained due to this vest. Not trying to say I crave for attention all the time but you know what I mean.

Here is a super stylish black vest from G by Guess. From the unusual buckle collar design to the oblique hem, this thing screams trendy all over it. When I first saw it I didn't know what to make of it. Sure it is a style I hardly see and doesn't really seem to suit me. I bought it thinking that if I could experiment it with different outfit arrangements then I just might discover something better than expected.

The first thing I noticed is the buckle detail at the collar. You probably should just leave it unfastened as it serves more of a decorative purpose than anything else. There is another buckle on the back too for aesthetics. Another unusual design is the inclusion of the two waist faux flap pockets. The three remaining pockets are real. Two of which are zip pockets positioned right above the faux ones and the last one which has flap button closure is located on the left chest. Then there are the shoulder pieces and the zip-up front with button reinforcement to further build up the style. Jet black is the only color available which is a shame as I would like to see a true white variant myself.

Where to begin? Being black it can match almost any color. One easy way to wear it is simply put it on any casual outfit as long as the top is a T-shirt.

I realized this vest is EXTREMELY versatile and goes with SO MANY tops. You can wear it on top of a shirt, a T-shirt, a polo, even a long sleeve hooded jacket! This means it's good for any weather. I've taken more photos with this vest than any other garments.

Overall this vest is definitely trendier than the G By Guess white Wickham Mock turtleneck vest that I bought a short while ago. I am glad I have both since each provides a style distinct enough from one another. The Superba is flashier while the Turtleneck feels more comfortable. Though it can't exactly shield you from the cold, it is nevertheless something you want to wear when going to a more boisterous place such as a bar or a live concert, the wild kind.

I never wore a vest before I got this turtleneck vest by G By Guess because it just never occurred to me how good it'd look on me. However later I found out that having a vest or two in your wardrobe adds plenty more options to your fashion choices because you can incorporate it in virtually any outfit. This vest offers a style that's worth much more than its asking price. This is a perfect example to showcase your fashion sense at a low cost!

This full-zip French terry vest is a light cotton jersey studded at both arm openings as well as the chest pocket. It features a turtleneck collar, two pockets at waist, and rib knit trim. The vest is available in two colors: Muted slate and true white. Both colors look great and go well with different colored shirts.

Personally, I prefer the white slightly more just because it's so shiny and draws people's attention to you right away. I especially love how you can buy two of these in different colors and they will feel completely distinct from each other. In general, the white vest fits well with a dark shirt underneath as the color contrast makes your appearance eye-catching. The grey one, on the other hand, goes well with a wider range of colors but the subsequent contrast won't be as effective as the former. The colors certainly make a huge difference and each color variant offers something unique in its own right.
