The humble cable-knit vest adds just the right amount of slouch to your otherwise standard turtleneck-and-jeans outfit and is one of those surprisingly forgiving fashion trends that somehow looks great on everyone. If you’ve been looking to begin your vest journey or add to a burgeoning collection, take note that Everlane’s version is 46 percent off today, in all three colorways: oatmeal, periwinkle blue, and a luxe-looking shade of charcoal.
This versatile vest is a favorite of Strategist newsletter editor Mia Leimkuhler, who pulls it out, she says, when “I want to look a little nicer but don’t have the energy to do anything more than throw on one more thing.” For the knit nerds out there, she explains that this one is constructed from “blow yarn,” in which cotton is blended with animal fibers (alpaca and merino wool in this case) to ensure a lightweight, breezy feel. That means it’s perfect for springtime and easy to pack for any upcoming trips. A note on fit: Leimkuhler usually takes a size small or medium in tops and sweaters, and is happy she picked up the small, “which is nicely oversize, without being too paper-bag princess.”
