I'm a sucker for a lil man in a sweater vest — especially during the holidays. If you're searching for the perfect look for your festive photo [1] or something for your toddler to wear to parties, you can't go wrong with a red cable knit vest. There is no shame in shelling out dough for the memories, but you don't have to spend an arm and a leg to score this classic style.

Simple: At just under $17, you won't be devastated if your guy's gravy and mashed potatoes end up all over the vest from Chaps [2].
Swank: With a little polo player on his chest, your young man will look sophisticated in the Ralph Lauren Sweater Vest [3] ($45). Well, that is, before he puts peas up his nose.
