Fashion comes and goes, but guess what – The leather vest is here to stay!

If it feels like something’s missing, throw on some silver chains for that extra sparkle!

When it comes to prints that pair beautifully with a black vest, leopard is where it’s at!

7. Black leather vest & print dress

Want to look feminine without feeling overly girly?

Team a romantic floral dress with your cool vest.

For a flattering fit, go for a cropped vest to elongate your silhouette.

Together with a black belt to define the waist, you’ll look effortlessly stylish!


A pro tip when rocking a printed dress: always pair your top or jacket with a bag in the same shade.

This keeps your look cohesive and avoids the chaotic vibe of mismatched patterns.
