The Modded Knotted Vest

I'm in love with open-front vests! They can add a splash of color to any outfit, and they're useful for covering up spaghetti straps and other skimpy tops when you want to stay cool but don't want to show a lot of shoulder.

This particular vest just wasn't doing it for me. I didn't like the way the front panels curved and connected in the back. I think a straight-up-and-down front opening is more flattering.

Before

During

I detached the front panels almost the entire length, and then reattached them so they hung straight down!

After

Now I can wear the vest two ways: with the front panels hanging down like a maxi vest (is that a thing?)...

...Or I can knot the panels in the front for a twisted look! I never had a knotted vest before, but I think I could get into it!

I have one more photo of the reassembly process on my original blog post, but you've basically seen it all! Thanks for reading!
