Men's vests are the new rage among the younger generation now and the vintage style have them all enticed now. The vest for quite sometime took a backseat and were seen as old people fashion and one which were reserved to the brainy professors and scientists. But recently the style has seen a popularity surge and surprisingly among the young people. If you live near a college or university or tend to pass through the area on a regular basis then you would have seen a lot of students casually donning the vest style. Not only among these students the style has also now reached the runways where the models now strut donning on different versions of this vintage style.

The vests version that we have now were originally worn as a part of three piece suit. There was once a time where wearing a vest was a standard procedure and if a man stepped out without wearing one he was looked down. Also at that time the heating systems weren't like the ones we have now and thus people wore vests to keep themselves warm even inside the houses. When the world war came the clothing materials were rationed and the ones that were considered to be extra like the vests were neglected. Thus the vests soon diminished from proper usage. Over the years the vests have come back and gone out of style and in the recent years people seem to have taken vests seriously.

Now if you are thinking about getting a Men's vest then there are some basic points that you will have to keep in mind. The material from which the vests are made, their fit and the color of the garment. Among all these the one that is most noticeable on the first glance is the color of the garment. People tend to notice the color of the garment that you are wearing since it attracts the attention the most. Therefore you should put proper effort into figuring out the color of the garment which suits you and your outfit the best.

When it comes to choosing the color of any garment let alone Men's vests the major factors that influence it are the occasion for which you are purchasing the garment and also the season or time of the day in which you intend to wear the garment. Keeping these two as the guiding points you can easily figure out the style and color of the garment that you need to buy. Also if you are purchasing for odd vests and you have a outfit in mind that you want to wear it with then it may be best for you to take the outfit with you or in case of online shopping search for vests that work the best with the outfit.

If you are thinking of wearing the vest with your formal outfit like for office wear then it may be best for you to go with classic darker ones like black color vests, navy color vests and charcoal grey color vests. These vests pair well with your suits and do not draw much unnecessary attention thus complementing your outfit as a whole. Lighter colored vest when paired with formal suits tend to stand out too much and create a unbalanced look.

Now if you are thinking of pairing the vest with casual outfits then you can go with lighter colors like white color vest, tan color vest, camel color vest, grey color vest, cream color vest and many more. You can wear them with t-shirts and jeans and they will give you a casual stylish look which is at the same time elegant. Ryan Reynolds seemingly loves the vest look too much since he is seen adopting the style frequently in both formal and casual sense.

Next comes the season factor. The vest that you purchase, if you are meaning to wear it in winter then it is best to stick with darker colors that we listed before under the formal category. Lighter colored and brighter ones are not recommended for this season since they pop out too much.

But if you are intending to wear them in the slightly warmer months like spring and autumn then the lighter tones are preferred since they look great with the soft look of the season. If for summer then your options are wide. You can go with bright colored vests since the brighter tones look great under natural light. You can go with options like royal blue color vest, brown color vest, green color vest, burgundy color vest, ref color vest, khaki color vest, orange color vest, turquoise color vest and many more of these types. You can match these vests with light colored shirts and pants. These bright colored vests tend to gather more attention and hence will become the centre piece of your outfit. You should choose the other components of the outfit to be of simple style so that they don't clash with the vest too much. For summer it may be best to select vests that are made of lightweight materials like cotton and linen. This is because of the fact that you are going to wear the vests over the shirts and most probably will wear a jacket over it. This can sometimes be suffocating and hence it is always better to choose the garment that is made of breathable fabrics like linen especially if you are getting it for occasions like summer weddings and beach weddings.

If you are getting the vest for some special events like fun parties or like costume parties then you can go with bold choices like multi colored vests and two toned vests. Pink color vests, gold color vests, silver color vests, burgundy color vests, purple color vests and other such bright colors are the best choices when it comes to these fun events and the parties where you dress in costumes.
