Vest Redux

You asked for it, you're getting it.  More--yes, more--pictures of butches in suit vests, looking hot!  Thanks to those of you who sent pictures.  Feel free to send in more.  Think of it as one big fashion collaboration among butches!
Picture

Here we have a vest worn by JB.  The vest is black, shirt is white, and the tie (though it's hard to see here) is maroon with a subtle plaid pattern.  Nice.  And the glasses are a dapper touch, too!

Who's the dashing, purple-clad figure to the right, you ask?  It's yours truly, in the same shirt-and-tie combo that I'm wearing here, but with a black suit vest (Stafford, bought new on eBay, $30 or so).  I wore this ensemble to the wedding I mentioned in my previous post, and received several compliments.

Picture
I received this picture with a note asking if I'd be willing to post a pic of a self-described "femme" in a suit vest.  My answer: heck yes!  (I never  understood why people  have librarian fantasies, but it's starting to make a little more sense now.)  This is Joni McClain, a photographer with Love and Light Images whose work you can also see at this link.

Next up is A, who had this waistcoat (that's what the Brits call vests, my fellow Yankees--classy, huh?) made for a wedding she attended.  She writes that you can choose your fabric and send measurements to this site for a custom job.  A also advises: "If you have a relatively large bust (as i do) then best to get the ladies fit."  I've got to say, a custom-made vest sounds pretty good to me!

Lastly but far from least-ly is one of your favorite celesbians and mine, the hot and hilarious Julie Goldman.  (Julie didn't send this in herself--I snagged it from Grace the Spot.)  Super cute, right?  It's also a good example of how faux-messy hair can look awesome with a tidy, put-together outfit.

There you have it, ladies and gents--five more ways that you can cut a dashing figure at work, at weddings, on the dance floor, or out on a date with this versatile and underused article of clothing.
