Now and Then: 3 Piece Suits

Suits are somewhat a weakness of mine. I work in field(s) that I might never need to wear them- but from skirt to 3 piece to tux,I can’t help but wear suits, lust after suits and want to recommend all the suits. So, especially in a time when suits are on trend (and every store has a version of a 3 piece suit this season as vests are back in!), I can’t help but not only recommend a suit. Because suits are not only a work place staple, but they are a such a chic outfit. Wear a 3 piece suit, wear nothing under the vest and from flats to heels to meetings to cocktails- it’s sexy. Try a vintage suit set, which ranges from skirts to vests to belts, and layer and mix/match for anything from a proper look to an on edge look.

Suits, especially 3 piece suits, are such a fashion goldmine. There are so many ways to wear them, and so many ways to buy them. You can buy new (Which offer so many options!). Buy vintage, which also offers so many options (also, pro tip: don’t be afraid to buy a men’s suit, it’s so affordable to get them altered to fit you and there are so many men suit options out there-including great 3 piece suit options!)

I will always root for a 3 piece suit that features a great fitting blazer, vest of any kind, and pants from skinny to wide leg. But I’m not unopposed to a suit that looks different from that- from skirts to shorts. There are so many options this season, and when you start shopping vintage your options open up exponentially. Lucky you, I’ve linked both my most favorite modern 3 piece suits and also vintage suits from 3 piece to skirt to mens (again- have them altered!!) Wear the suits alone, with a great silk blouse, with heels or with flats. There are so many ways in which suits are both chic and a staple, a trend and a classic – I am 100% behind you getting more than one great suit. Even if you never need to wear a suit-but just want to. From tuxes to this season’s on trend 3 piece suits, to classic vintages, I know that no matter your lifestyle there is a suit for you.

And I’m hoping some of my faves linked below will be some of your faves!
