Today's article is dedicated to the lovely gentleman wearing the cashmere sweater vest and tie at the 27th floor lounge bar Prohibition. Just one of the 3 unique venues of Manny's Steakhouse in Minneapolis MN. His style was perfect for the ghastly dreadful weather that hit the Midwest this past weekend. It's amazing how many different styles there are to the simple vest. Here are a few popular vest trends to consider while picking out tomorrows attire.

1. Fur: The fur vest is in MASSIVE demand this season. Rachel Zoe being the leader of the pack is a die-hard fan of the fur vest. No matter what color, texture, or length the fur vest is a holiday season must have. Look for the popular trend at Hot Mama in Fargo, ND.

2. Cashmere: A warm, versitile piece that works in the office or out on the town. Paired with a crisp collared shirt underneath,some skinnies, and a great Stuart Weitzman bootie available at The Red Shoe in Fargo, ND.  A perfect day to evening look. Express carries an array of different colors and styles to fit this look.

3. Military: God bless America, the military vest is picking up speed this season pairing so nicely with the skinny cargo pant, and lace up buckle boots. The hardware detailing on the vests create a look that is fun and sexy, with a touch of partiotism behind the metal grommets. JBrand has a fabulous skinny cargo cut. Find JBrand at Lena K in Fargo, ND

And last but not my any means the least, a personal favorite, the oversized sweatshirt vest: A fabulous style to throw on with a basic longsleeve tee, tights or leggings and some killer thigh high boots. Or for a more casual take exchange the over the knee boot for a pair of Hunters (SHANNALEE, or Uggs. Either way a cozy look for some Saturday Christmas shopping, or coffee and scrabble at Babb's.

Whatever the style may be, the vest has and forever will be a staple in a women's closet. A fun accessory to liven up a basic henley, or the added warmth when shoveling the car out of a snow bank. Goodnight and Happy Sunday.
