But it turned out to be easy, the waistcoat was fine lace and soft so it hung nicely. It allowed me to play with the idea of nipping it in at the waist with a belt or in the end tucking it into my high waisted shorts.
Waistcoat: Dorothy Perkins, Vest: River Island, High waisted floral shorts: Primark, brogue wedges: Aldo, Eiffel tower and heart necklace: hannah makes things.
Here is how all the other lovely ladies styled the waistcoat, what do you guys think? Whos outfit

I really love how each of you girls came up with such different ways of wearing this waistcoat! I think the lace is lovely!
Your outfit looks very pretty! I think you look great!
can't wait to check out the bands you suggested, i'll let you know how i find them :)love how you wore this!! x
This challenge mustve been so difficult - trying to style something that you havent picked your self, but still make it work with your style - and knowing 9 other people might do it way better than you! i love the way you've styled it, it's definitely one of my favourites. I never would have thought of tucking it in. I'm still jealous of your hair too x
Love your look!
love the way you've styled this, as well as the other ladies.
Oh, Magpie Girl, it's lovely! You've made it like a pattern on pattern. This is such a great idea, this Challenge. Such fun.
I remember we swapped links in my early days of blogging (perhaps yours, too?) How the hell have you been? You're looking gorgeous. I love the neon green watch: I am so into bright lime green at the moment! And black tights and those STUNNING Aldo brogue wedges - great silhouette. Hope you're well.
Love your blog!
And how you styled the waistcoat looks great =]
love this outfit! lace is one of my favorite things right now and i always have to catch myself when shopping because i feel like its the only thing i ever reach for!
xx
Ah I love this whole Challenge! You look gorgeous in the vest. I love how you styled it!
sweet challenge this first one! lace has made such a come back and i this it's cool how you've chosen to wear it between and accessory and an actual piece of clothing.
* actually i meant 'i think' dunno how 'i this' came up;)
