Today's Everyday Fashion: The Long Vest
/Today's real-life fashion scenario: a speaking engagement at the University of Central FL! Yesterday I was the guest speaker at The Exchange at the College of Business Administration, as well as the Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership's Blackstone LaunchPad, where I shared my entrepreneurial story and lead a workshop with students (pics below). It was my third time speaking at Blackstone, and my first time at The Exchange. This is what I wore, which we stopped to photograph on the way home. The atmosphere at UCF is pretty laid back so I was going for a combo of dressed up but comfortable, and it fit the bill. I also like the cold shoulder affect you get when you pair a long vest with an off-shoulder top. It's a little style hack that I'll definitely be using to get more mileage out of my long vests!
