Fashion Faux Pas: Demin Vests

Okay, so I get that the whole '80s trend is still in, but we're grasping at straws to find "new" looks from the decade.

Like the denim vest. 

First of all, I hate vests in general.  If you need an extra layer, wear a sweater or a full-on jacket.  The problem is that people who wear vests are simply doing so because they feel it is a wonderfully fabulous addition to their outfit. FYI: It isn't.

Adding the denim factor makes it a whole other disaster.  Denim on top is difficult to begin with.  You can't really wear it with jeans because then you either look like you're wearing a denim suit, or the denim just doesn't work with the other denim hues you've got.  And it doesn't quite look right with much else either (there are a few exceptions, of course).


The vest combined with the denim makes a hideous hybrid of fashion disgust.

It doesn't help matters at all if the vest is bejeweled, studded or "artfully" ripped.

Let's stick to flattering clothing that has a purpose, k?
