Coastal Knit

In a world of fleeting fashion fads, finding something truly practical - and yet still sharp as a tack - can feel as rare as nabbing a table at the trendiest brunch spot at 11am. Enter this sleeveless chunky knit that takes the humble vest from forgotten-drawer purgatory to “That’s the one!” status. This isn’t a vest that goes quietly under your jacket, dreading the inevitable end-of-season op-shop pile. No, it’s got chutzpah. There’s texture, there’s confidence, and yes - there’s a really flattering fit.

And in fairness, warmth is on its side, too. The heavily ribbed turtleneck is less “stuffy” and more “swaddle me all winter, you glorious neck-cocoon.” The open-knit is substantial but not stifling. The armholes are finished and generous enough for layering over even billowy shirts (if you like those sorts of things). It’s softer than it looks thanks to 100% acrylic yarn that won’t itch or shrink after a questionable washing machine cycle.

This number works equally well draped over denim with boots or tucked nonchalantly into tailored trousers for work. Actually, it’d look pretty good over a floaty dress too if you’re feeling brave enough to blend seasons. Textured but versatile, with long lines and deep side splits for movement - it feels carefully considered but entirely effortless.
