To say that I’ve been obsessed with vests and bib necklaces lately would probably be an understatement. Remember my obsession for vests back last Fall HERE, HERE, and HERE? Well, they’ve carried over into my Spring wardrobe and I love wearing them! They are such a wonderful layering piece to my typical mommy uniform (i.e. white tee and jeans) and I feel so much more put together with one on. As for bib necklaces, I can’t get enough of them! I tend to shy away from the super sparkly bedazzled ones and stick to those with more chain links and metal material for the edgier, rocker vibe.
I purchased this military vest from Marshalls by Max Jeans for $40. They don’t that this color on their site, but it is available in burgundy and white for $79. Below are other options for the olive green color.

I got my bib necklace from Forever21 (of all places) for less than $13 and I wear it ALL the time! When picking our jewelry from there, I always take a little extra time to inspect the items and make sure they don’t look cheap. This gem has definitely become a staple in my closet.
Here are a few options from Forever21 all under $25!
(Psst! I just ordered the one on the far right – can’t wait to style it.)

I wore a Boyfriend V Tee from Target and usually stock up on them when they have a sale. (I think they are having a sale right now for 3 for $24.) My jeans are from LOFT on clearance for $15 and the newest addition to my boots/bootie collection are these amazingly comfy booties from Nine West I recently purchased when they were having a mega sale. They are sold out online, but I found these great options at Nordstrom for under $100 AND they all have great reviews.

All in all, this entire look cost me less than $100 (excluding the purse). Don’t you just love shopping on a budget? 🙂 What steals and deals have you scooped up lately?

Love this outfit!! I also really love how you offer different price point options for each piece.
Beautiful and fun pairings. Definitely a fun way to dress up the mommy uniform
Love this look! I just may have to invest in one of these vests!
I love vests too! I got a military one from a thrift shop last year and wear it all the time. Cute way to style it with that necklace and boots 🙂
Ooh I love that vest! Super cute!
