Many types of clothing have a special or distinctive color that makes them look particularly good. Let me explain what that means. Black is the magical color for the leather jacket. For the denim shorts it is the blue color. For the vest, the answer may not be that obvious, but I would argue that the olive green is definitely one of the magical colors. To better show you how to style it, I have compiled a list of the best olive green vest outfit ideas. Let’s check it out.
Olive green vest over a light pink button-up shirt
Very often one saw some very simple and casual outfits built around an olive green vest. But to start this interesting list with a little surprise, I’m going to show you this relatively nifty layered outfit. To achieve this look, you can wear an olive green vest over a pale pink buttoned shirt. Team them with blue skinny jeans and knee-high lace-up boots made of brown leather.

Green vest over black skinny fit t-shirt
For those of you who love to wear long-sleeved, figure-hugging t-shirts, there are times when you are not in the best shape and want to cover up your belly fat a little. You can simply wear an olive green vest over it. Team them with blue skinny jeans and a pair of leopard print flats for extra style.

If you think you’ve tried all sorts of outfits built around the olive green, think outside the box, if the box even exists. A nifty pink knitted hat can really spice up your outfit.

Wear it with a blue and white checked button-up shirt and skinny jeans

Wear it with a black vest top & lace-up boots
For those of you who want to find a way to look slimmer, a very easy option is to just wear black. For example, you can just wear a black, figure-hugging vest top with black skinny jeans. These pieces alone don’t look decent enough as a work outfit. You can add an olive green vest and a pair of brown lace-up boots down the mid-calf to complete the outfit in style.

For a casual and sporty look, try throwing a baseball cap into the mix. For example, you can wear a white long-sleeved bodycon t-shirt with an olive green vest and black skinny jeans.
