How to Rock a Jumpsuit

For those days when you want to throw on a chic outfit without having to coordinate your top with your bottoms, a jumpsuit is the perfect solution! While you may feel like only those with the last name Kardashian are fit to wear this extravagant clothing item, think again! Here's what to do (and what not to do) to ensure you’ll not end up looking like your high school janitor.

Pair It With a Jacket:

If you’re new to the jumpsuit trend, or want a little extra coverage, try pairing it with a well-tailored blazer jacket. Pick color tones that compliment each other, and experiment with a patterned blazer if your jumpsuit is a solid.

Find Your Perfect Fit:

Fit is crucial when it comes to rocking a jumpsuit. You don’t want to wear something that is too tight that it looks like a second skin, but you also don’t want to look like you wrapped window curtains around your body. Pick a jumpsuit that fits snug but not too tight- you don’t want any fabric pulling.

Don’t Over-do it on the Accessories:

Since a jumpsuit is already a big statement piece, keep your jewelry and/or hair accessories minimal, if at all. A simple pair of earrings or a bangle bracelet will do the trick!

Choose the Right Fabric:

You should never wear a jumpsuit with a clingy fabric such as spandex, polyester, or pleather. The fabric should perfectly drape over the body.  Cotton and knit jersey fabric are both perfect jumpsuit material.
