How to style a jumpsuit & everything you need to know
How to style a jumpsuit. Jumpsuits are perfect for almost any event or lifestyle. Personally, I love to wear them just about anywhere. They give you the freedom of pants but with a unique twist. The only downfall: going to the bathroom. You pretty much have to get naked in the stall. LOL, do it for the photo opportunity. We all know you are going to look fierce in photos and get tons of compliments, no one needs to know about your naked saga in the public restroom 🙂
So, how exactly do you style a jumpsuit? The best part of a jumpsuit is they really don’t need much styling. Keep it simple and throw on a jumpsuit with your favorite wedges and call it a day. If you think it will be cold, bring a jacket. I love the way a jacket looks thrown over the shoulders, styled here.
I am going to go over some commonly asked questions about styling a jumpsuit below.
Commonly asked questions regarding jumpsuits
Can I wear a jumpsuit to a wedding? Depends on the wedding and depends on the jumpsuit. If the wedding is black-tie then I would say no. Black-tie means gowns and tuxedos. If the wedding is formal and you find a long, elegant jumpsuit then yes! If the wedding is cocktail, semi-formal, or casual then yes any jumpsuit will do.
Can I wear a jumpsuit if I am overweight? Of course! It’s all about fit and style. Find a jumpsuit that hugs you in all the right places. ASOS has a great plus size section with really amazingly trendy and affordable pieces.
Will people judge me if I wear a jumpsuit? Who cares what people think. People are judgmental no matter what. If you wear a bright lipstick or have an amazing (but expensive) handbag people will have opinions. Pay attention to NO ONE except for the voice inside your head. All that matters is that you are happy with how you look and feel.
Should I wear jewelry with a jumpsuit? If the neckline is simple then yes, by all means, go for it. If the neckline is intriguing, has jewels or any type of “busy” print then I would just let the jumpsuit shine! Enhance the jumpsuit with great shoes and a bag.

Does this jumpsuit run true to size?
Order one size up! I always order one size up at Asos because it’s Euro sizes and they tend to run smaller than American sizes 🙂
