A Casual Take on an Old Favorite

Happy Friday, ladies!  I hope you had a wonderful week.  We’re back to our normal schedule this week with a Fridays with Oscar.  Per usual, I’ve got a super simple cocktail and appetizer perfect for a Friday night on the porch.  Plus, I’m showing you my casual take on a v-neck sweater—an old classic that never really goes out of fashion.

So here’s to you ladies:  Ollie, Oscar, and I am wishing you a wonderful weekend!

The Summary

  Today’s OOTD is a casual take on a v-neck sweater

  The outfit is modeled, and I pulled together 2 alternates

  Today’s cocktail is a limoncello prosecco

  Today’s appetizer is a fig and goat cheese crostini

A Casual Take on an Old Favorite

1. Tipped V-Neck Slub Vest

(Talbots)

Today’s featured item is a v-neck slub vest from Talbots.  Personally, what I love about v-neck sweaters is their versatility.  You can layer them on top of a tank, tee, or button-down.  Or you can wear them without, like I’ve done today.

My outfit could not be more simple:  a pair of shorts (old, similar here and here) and sandals.  But make sure to check out today’s alternatives.  This sweater works great with a pair of denim or cropped wide-leg pants.

      This is such a relaxed post with happy vibes. Love the clothes, colour palette, alternate choices. Cocktail and snacks. Relate to all of it

    Nice to you and Oscar back with your Friday recipes. I may have missed some. These are two Iโ€™m going to try especially because theyโ€™re easy and I can get the ingredients locally in my small town.
    Love the outfit it is a classic.
    Enjoy your weekend.

      I’ve had my eye on that sweater.
      Looks great with the olive shorts and can easily slip into early fall.
      Going to make your goat cheese and fig crostini. I have homemade fig preserves in the freezer. Need to use before figs come in again!
