No school supplies to buy, but I’ll happily dress for the occasion! This back-to-school-inspired look combines a pink Boden sweater vest and striped pants with a classic blue button-down. A little preppy, a little playful, and very much my kind of outfit.
The layering is what brings it together. I left the shirt untucked so the hem peeks out beneath the vest, with the collar and turned-back cuffs adding a little contrast. Pink and blue are always such a pretty pairing, and the striped trousers make the combination feel more fun.
Of course, I couldn’t resist adding a little whimsy with a feather brooch! I love how it gives a simple sweater vest some personality. A tonal pink hijab, cream circle bag, and Mary Jane flats finish the look.
A sweater vest over a button-down is also an easy layering formula for modest fashion. You can switch up the colors, add printed trousers, or keep things simple with denim. For me, the pink stripes and feathers were just the right amount of extra!
