6 Ways to Style a Fleece Teddy Vest

Who doesn't love crisp fall mornings and warm sunny afternoons?  I sure do!  The weather in North Carolina this October has been glorious. While the temperatures have been heavenly, it makes dressing for the day tricky and difficult.  Wear too heavy clothes in the morning and you're roasting by afternoon.  Or freeze in the morning and be comfortable in the afternoon. What to do?

The answer is layers.  Particularly fleecy teddy vests that are so trendy right now.  Vests are the perfect fall layer that are so versatile.  You can wear them over long or short sleeves and they add a chic statement to any outfit.  

This Olive Hooded Teddy Vest from Zyia Active is the perfect fall layering piece.  Cozy and soft, you'll never want to take it off.  It will keep you toasty and warm all season long.  The hood is lined with fleecy softness for added warmth and style.  Olive is an unexpected neutral; it pairs nicely with so many colors.  This vest fits true to size.

Wear a teddy vest now as your outerwear, then as temperatures move into winter, layer it under a winter jacket or coat for added warmth.  Pull it back out in spring for your outer layer again over short sleeves and tanks.  This vest works year round!
