about me

This reversible quilted vest feels like it came straight out of a very stylish sewing room, with hot pink painterly plaid on one side and an atomic mustard and black block print on the other. It wears like a little piece of folk art that just happens to layer perfectly over jeans, dresses or turtlenecks.
