Cropped puffer vests are trending right now in a full sized way. I found this one on Amazon (on sale!) and could not resist at least trying it out. My feelings were wondering if it would even work on my frame but I am so glad I ordered one to try. Being the wise consumer I am, I read all the reviews first and they mentioned how it arrives shrink wrapped. They shared you can just pop the vest into the dryer and it perks right up.


I followed the advice and into the dryer it went for just a minute or two. Going in to retrieve it, I found it perfectly puffed and the wrinkles gone. It looked amazing. Then came time for the try-on. What had got me to finally try this cropped vest trend was seeing it on a girl who was ringing me up shopping at Loft; she looked adorable and very casual chic. She had it paired with black leggings, and a cropped long sleeve white top. So, I grabbed my Alo split hem black leggings and a classic white turtleneck, my Ugg Tazz slippers and my checkered Walmart trio bag and corduroy hat. And viola!

I am posting below all the links to what I wore here. The vest comes in many great color options as well. I have been eyeing the black one as well. (I went with the size small for those who are wondering.) What do you think? Have you tried this trending style yet? Do you have any reservations like I did? Feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments. xoxox
