Gorgeous colors & excellent quality

★★★★★

Omg, so good! 

"I just got this new vest the other day and it is gorgeous! I wore it yesterday over a jumpsuit and got so many compliments when I went to town. I have a short torso, and 5'8" and this vest works perfect for me. I have the longer vest as well and love it, but this crop vest is going to be my summer go to over shorts, dresses and whatever else I can throw it over. This piece is timeless and I will be wearing it for many years to come." - Tara R. - Whitefish, MT
