Happy summer Friday, dear-hearts!
We are going into the weekend , so I thought now would be a good time to talk about jumpsuits.
In the summer of 2011, rompers started becoming a thing. Now, 8 years later it's "big sister", the jumpsuit is having a moment.
For years upon years, "Jumpsuit" conjured up thoughts of something bad from the 1970's. Polyester, bell -bottoms, the whole 9 yards.
Moving on, there is no doubt that the jumpsuit is very on trend now. I wore one to work just yesterday.
Horse feathers, I said! If I can wear one, so can you. Just like with a dress, you just need to take into account your body type and go from there.
You can find jumpsuits that are a formal and an eye catching alternative to a dress. You can also find casual jumpsuits that are more comfortable than your best PJ's.

When choosing which accessories to wear with your jumpsuit, the rule I follow is to pretend its a dress.
If this jumpsuit didn't have pants , but was a dress, what shoes would I wear? Which necklace would look best? I go at it that way.
You can just throw on a jumpsuit and go. That's the beauty of one garment dressing.
Before anyone chimes in with "But going to the restroom is AWFUL in a jumpsuit!!"
Its no different than wearing pants. You are just pulling your clothes down from a higher point. That said, don't wear one with a zipper in the back, unless you can reach said zipper.
The majority of the jumpsuits that I own, are pull-on, no zippers involved!
If you want to dip your toe into the jumpsuit waters, you can find them EVERYWHERE now.
Until you know that you like them and how the feel/look on you, don't spend a lot on one.
Target and Venus, both have a very large selection of reasonably priced ones.

So, what do you think? Do you own a jumpsuit? Would you?
Have a safe and fun weekend!
