In about a month campus will be covered in students walking to class while bundled up in heavy pea coats, scarves and gloves. But right now, we are still in that awkward weather phase when some mornings are freezing, but when you get out of class the temperature has risen till you are sweating in your jeans and sweater.
The key to dressing for this kind of weather is layering, and a vest is a key layering piece to add to your wardrobe. Throw it on over a t-shirt or lightweight sweater in the freezing mornings and take it off in the warmer afternoons.
There are many different styles of vests including fleece, quilted and fur. You can choose the type of vest that goes best with your style!
The key is to buy a vest that fits somewhat slim and hits right at your hips, so that it does not make you look boxy or bigger than you are!
