You know how much I love layers and versatility. It is the secret to dressing chic and creating an efficient wardrobe. Furthermore, I whole-heartedly believe that the best investment pieces are those that are versatile, tailored, and made with high quality materials. I prefer to invest in quality rather than quantity and encourage my friends and clients to as well.
This is why I adore SAMIMAY, a Chicago based brand that was founded by two friends, Sylvia and Izabela. All of their pieces are hand-made by Sylvia’s sisters at their home in Poland using high quality materials from England and Italy.
For the crazy weather here in Chicago, SAMIMAY’s versatile shawl capes, beautiful oversized shrugs, and fabulous short vests will keep you plenty warm in style! (You know I am a huge fan of vests!). And the meticulous craftsmanship is exceptional – you can just feel love in each piece!
Wear this number with denim like I did here or pair it with Hold Your Haunches leggings. I would also wear it with fitted mini or midi dress.
Wearing this piece on top of leather jacket is a game changer for an outfit. Here is a look from a few years ago that showcases this trick.
I also love wearing it under a coat or jacket as I did here.
