You may think that jumpsuits should only be graced by the long limbed and glamorous as they often appear quite intimidating on the clothes rails in stores. Sometimes the length of material panics us as we need this garment in particular to flatter us in all the right places! In reality until you take a jumpsuit to the changing room you'll never know if they suit you or not, it's the same as any piece of clothing in your wardrobe! We've put together a style guide of our favourite jumpsuits from our own wardrobes just to give you an idea of the different styles that are out there and how we choose to wear them! It was also a beautiful day and we couldn't resist going outside to soak up the sun, it doesn't make an appearance all too often in Britain so like the rest of the country we like to make the most of it!
Jumpsuit 1 - New Look, £19.99
As every girl knows you can never go wrong with black. It's flattering on curves and this one in particular pulls in a bit at the waist which creates that khloe kardashian silhouette that we know and love! Paired with this oriental printed kimono jacket, a classic watch and chunky sandals this simple jumpsuit is updated for spring and can be adjusted according to the season! This whole outfit is coincidentally New Look "errythaaaang" proving you can get a whole outfit from visiting just one store. This is a perfect alternative to a dress for a night out as it allows room to bust any move, and we like to groove..
Jumpsuit 2 - Primark, £15
If you're into the military trend and are loving the green hue of kaki at the moment then this jumpsuit may be for you! At a bargain price of £15 from Primark, still in store now I believe, this slightly more structured jumpsuit can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. We've paired it with chunky black sandals from H&M to be worn more casually, however we've also worn it with heels for a night on the town, it's a great choice for cocktails with the girls. The deep v neck gives it a feminine touch as well as the tie belt that nips you in at the waist, right where you want it to! It also gives the illusion of longer legs - unfortunately not all of us have endless limbs like Victoria Secret model Karlie Kloss - so we're loving this form of jumpsuit trickery!
Jumpsuit 3 - Miss Selfridge, £15 (sale)
Another bargain buy (can you tell we're students) from a classic Miss Selfridge sale, it was too hard to resist! Bold florals in spring - an obvious but a must! Yes we've watched The Devil Wears Prada and Yes we realise that according to Miranda Priestly florals in spring are not "groundbreaking" but that doesn't mean we don't love them! The cut out back detail of this jumpsuit is so fun and gives it that extra edge in contrast to the flower print! The fit is really great as it accentuates curves but would also look great on any figure! Yet again we've paired it with these chunky white sandals for a daytime look but of course you can just slip on a pair of heels and be ready to hit the town!
Jumpsuit 4 - Dorothy Perkins, £20 (sale)
Small floral print on a dark background is a great way to rock the floral trend in a more subtle way for those who are apprehensive about large amounts of pattern! The high neck detail of this jumpsuit is great if you like to cover up the chest area however the form fitting shape of the jumpsuit allows for showing off your shape. The flared detail of the trouser half fits right in with the seventies trend and this floaty style is also really fun to wear on a warm spring/summer day! This style of jumpsuit would look great paired with platforms if you're looking for height or sandals if you want to keep it casual. The pockets are also a great asset and if you're like us and enjoy a pocket on a trouser then look for a jumpsuit with this detail!
