There’s a reason you mainly see black and white jumpsuits. They are easier to wear, and you don’t run the worry of looking like a trendy fool in a crazily printed jumpsuit. With a black or white jumpsuit, you’ll look usually always look stylish and chic.

FIND THE PERFECT FIT

Purchasing a jumpsuit that fits your body perfectly is key to looking polished and put together. Don’t wear a jumpsuit that is too tight or too loose.

If you wear a jumpsuit that’s too tight, you might give off that Catwoman vibe, and you might feel uncomfortable. If you wear a jumpsuit that is too loose, you will completely lose your figure, and the jumpsuit will overwhelm your body.

The elegant white jumpsuit I’m wearing in this outfit has a halter style top half, a cinched waist, with a wide leg. It’s not too big or too small, and I’m able to show off my figure by showing the right amount of skin with the halter top and having the accentuated waist.

DEFINE YOUR WAIST

I have to emphasize the point of not losing your figure. A lot of jumpsuits have either a cloth belt the same color as the jumpsuit or you can easily add your belt to define your waist. Cinching your jumpsuit at the waist is a great way to add some femininity to the look and give you that curvy look.

In this white jumpsuit, I double wrapped the white cloth belt to define my waist. I could have also added a gold or black belt to add some dimension, but I wanted to show that you don’t need to look much stylish in a jumpsuit.

PAIR THE JUMPSUIT WITH A BLAZER

I like to add dimensions to my outfits! Even though the white jumpsuit could stand alone, I wanted to show you how you can easily add a blazer to give it some personality.

If you’ve never worn a jumpsuit before adding a blazer will make you feel more comfortable than without. It breaks up the look and adds a layer to make the jumpsuit more subtle.

When selecting a blazer or jacket go with one that enhances the jumpsuit and goes with the occasion. This outfit could work for a cocktail party, formal evening dinner or going out to fancy drinks with friends. Consider where you are going to wear your jumpsuit and select a blazer that either brings it up a notch or makes it more casual.

WEAR HEELS WITH WIDE LEG JUMPSUIT

If you’re wondering what shoes to wear with a jumpsuit, always opt for heels! Unless it’s a very casual jumpsuit for the beach. Wearing heels is a style rule I follow because you don’t want to appear short or frumpy. Create the illusion of long and lean by not having the bottom of the jumpsuit bunch up. If I were to wear this wide-leg jumpsuit with sandals or flats, the bottom half would look pretty sloppy. It would look like I’m wearing a jumpsuit that doesn’t fit, and I would look shorter.

The shoes you wear with wide-leg jumpsuits need to be on the skinny side. Stay away from wedges, clogs, or anything with a thick heel. This is especially true if the fabric is light and airy, like in the white jumpsuit I’m wearing.

WEAR A SOLID COLOURED JUMPSUIT

If you’re a jumpsuit virgin ease into it and wear a solid black, navy, forest, or dark-colored jumpsuit. If you’re a little daring, opt for a jumpsuit with a small print, like polka dots, or bright color!

Black is always a slimming choice!

A solid jumpsuit is elongating since it’s one unbroken vertical line the eye moves easily up and down without interruption.

Once you feel comfortable in a black or white jumpsuit experiment by adding some pattern or splashes of color.
