I’ve been looking for a slim-fitted military vest forevs and was so happy to find one…on sale none the less. Wore it to work today with a springy dress, and toned it down for dinner with a casual pair of cropped skinnies. Yay for affordable staples!

Next Thursday (5/19) I’ll be I’ll be co-hosting the After 5 event at Banana Republic with my gals Amber and Aimee (so excited!), and would love more than anything to see y’all there. :) Swing by the 256 Grant location near Union Square between 5 and 7pm and score 25% off purchases over $100.

Not only would it be amazing to catch up/meet up in one of the prettiest stores downtown, but they also have some stellar pieces right now (ransacked the store yesterday). Mark your calendars — hope you can make it! <3

    I love this whole look :) These pictures are great! I especially like the last one. I would never of thought to add the jean layer on top of the military.

    Just magic. The shoes kill me, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say the blue nails cinch the whole thing. Brilliant as usual, Laura!

    I’m loving this vest, not only as a stand alone piece but layered under the chambray jacket. Wish I lived closer so I could attend the event you’re hosting at Banana!

    Thanks!! Yeah this was the first time I had tried on BR jeans and I am definitely a fan. These are petites, bc I liked the cropped fit. Affordable too — I’d def recommend ‘em! :)

    Love how you combined the white denim with blue denim – so chic – and ALL BR pieces at that. You styled them so well…! I hosted an After 5 event in NY recently and it was such a success :)
