I've always had a soft spot for vests and gilets, drawn to their adaptability, and how easily they shift from casual to chic often just with a simple change of shoes.
I'm a big fan of the patch pockets, and the concealed drawstring is a discreet touch that works wonders sculpting a flattering hourglass figure; especially for those without a defined waist. It's a game-changer.
In colder seasons, I'm wearing mine with a merino long sleeve, turtle neck or classic shirt along with simple leather leggings or over-the-knee boots. And when I'm feeling like an equestrian-inspired look, August is my go-to, paired with refined jodhpurs and riding boots. As the weather warms up, I love wearing August as a dress and heels for a chic, utilitarian minimalist vibe.
Hope you love it as much as I do.
