Melissa Vest

The Melissa Vest is a sleeveless cotton layer in light grey, made for women who want to add structure to an outfit without a full jacket. Its open front and clean cut sit close but comfortably, giving a simple jeans-and-tee combination a bit more shape.

The reason to reach for it is the layering. It works over a shirt or a blouse with trousers for the office, or thrown over a top with sneakers for an easy weekend look. The light grey keeps it neutral enough to pair with most of what you already own, and you can dress it up or down depending on what you put underneath.

If you want full sleeves or warmth on a cold day, a vest won't cover that on its own.
