- 1). Consider the shape of the sweater vest you are working with. Determine if it long and bulky or short and tight. Take note of whether it has buttons or is a pullover.
- 2). Pair a long, bulky sweater vest with a thin belt. A form-fitting top with either three-quarter or full-length sleeves looks best. Since longer sweaters cover your rear, it is safe to wear a pair of skinny jeans or pants. High heels will work well with this look, as will a longer necklace that extends below the bustline.
- 3). Pair a tight sweater vest with a tight plain white T-shirt. Wear with a fitted, possibly flared, pair of pants or jeans. Add a pin or brooch on one shoulder. The pin can be a retro rhinestone piece or a floral pin with a pearl center. Shoes can be heels or flats, depending on whether you are going out or going for a more casual look.
- 4). Replace the buttons on a long or short sweater vest that buttons down the front with classic pearl buttons. This gives the sweater a richer look.
