But, if like me you have burgeoning hips, a long torso, or shapely thighs, then you may have shied away from this latest craze - I know I have!
Yet, I have been converted!
A fortnight ago I purchased a simple black jumpsuit with a bandeau top and a wide leg - I fell in love instantly. Not only was the waist cinched like a pin up but the trousers were long enough for me to wear my trademark stonking heels!
I think this jumpsuit is one of the most versatile things I own. Paired with a smart blazer and heels it's great for work; come summer (as far away as that may be) it will ceaselessly chic with sandals and a oversized floppy hat. I can even dress it up for nights out with a chunky belt, a gold chocker and flash of vixen red lipstick.A fortnight ago I purchased a simple black jumpsuit with a bandeau top and a wide leg - I fell in love instantly.

I love the jumpsuit so much that I rushed out and bought the playsuit version ...

I wore this to work today with opaque tights, a long white blazer and skinny belt but it's going to be great as a quick and easy cover up when I head off to Mauritius for some November sun.
Needless to say, I'll be making the most of this jumpsuit craze - see below to get inspiration from my one piece edits!

ReplyDeleteI think jumpsuits have so much staying power as far as trends go because they are so effortless. I like the three sets you created to demonstrate a variety of styling possibilities are so impactful. I really like the playsuit you bought. The color is so beautiful.

Thank you Sharon!
DeleteJumpsuits definitely have staying power and I'll certainly be considering another one come payday!
The ASOS playsuit is wonderful - I'm off to Mauritius for a belated honeymoon next month and think it will be wonderful for wandering around markets on a hot evening!

I normally am dead set against jumpsuits as the ones I see just don't flatter, but you look so good in them that I'm seriously reconsidering my stance!
