I should know better by now.
This story starts three months ago, that's when I first spied a luxurious brown faux fur vest at Forever 21. I was immediately drawn to it. As I continued to make my rounds of the store, I kept finding myself back at the vest, but at the time I couldn't justify the purchase: "Where and when would I wear that?!" I thought to myself. And with that I left the vest on the rack.
Fast forward three months and faux fur vests are everywhere and I am still thinking about the vest that could have been mine.
Like I said, I should know better by now.
Last Thursday, I was having a horrible day at work. Writers block combined with conflict drove me to a state of petite rage, so I decided to treat myself to a little lunchtime shopping and my first stop was Forever 21. Sadly, they didn't have the vest I'd been coveting; they didn't even have one that was similar. But they did have one that I decided to make my own.
Behold dear readers, my new favourite look, something I like to call Yeti-Chic.
Thankfully, Yeti-Chic was a hit! Which gives me hope that it will go over well when I decided to introduce my tiny, casual, West Coast hometown to Yeti-Chic at the end of the month.
Although it wasn't the vest I was originally looking for, I'm very happy that it's now a part of my closet!
Here's to a winter of Yeti-Chic!

I was a little nervous about debuting this look at work. I'm the youngest person in the office by a decade and I wasn't sure how my style would go over.
