Welcome back to Marvelous Monday. Our philosophy: Monday is nobody's favorite day of the week, but maybe its terrible reputation is a little undeserved. We're on a mission to make ours (and hopefully yours) a little less awful by dressing Marvelously!
This weeks theme is something that you have trouble styling.
I chose this leopard jumpsuit. Now this isn't something that I have trouble styling, as much as I have trouble WEARING. I bought this as an impulse buy at Ross one day; I was up at checkout with everything else I had already tried on and seen this hanging on a rack in my size so I snatched it up real quick. This was without really thinking "is this something I will actually wear." I have worn it a lot, but only at home, not quite brave enough to wear in public. This is how I decided it would be acceptable for an outing though:
Shirt: LYS. Shoes: Privileged. Jumpsuit: Ross. Necklace: Hustler Hollywood.
I can't believe I'm posting this, but this is what it looks like without anything over it.

Oh my gosh, you look FIERCE in that jumpsuit! You should totally give it a go when you're feeling brave enough! It looks wonderful. I love how you've dialed it down for a more casual look with the sheer top, also.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I don't think I will ever get to the point of feeling comfortable to wear it by itself in public-unless I lost half of my stomach!
DeleteI actually really love this outfit! I wouldn't know how to wear it, either, but you look fab :)
ReplyDeleteI love the leopard print and the fit/shape of the legs of the jumpsuit. Personally, I would wear it with a blazer over the jumpsuit. Your shoes are seriously awesome!! :-)

Thanks. I did think about a blazer, however, my issue is my lower stomach and I do not have any blazers that are long enough to cover it how I would want. Maybe it's time for me to invest in a boyfriend blazer...
DeleteI love it without the top covering it. You don't realize how seriously cute you look in that.
ReplyDeleteAwe thanks.
DeleteIt looks fantastic! I love that you paired it with that pretty top. It makes me think of a fancy sweatshirt, and I really like that. But the jumpsuit itself looks amazing on you!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I never thought about this one as looking like a sweatshirt, but now that you mention it, it does have that sort of shape.
DeleteYou look great in the jumpsuit, I think you look great both ways. But I like how you styled it with the sheer top over because you can still see the print peeking out through the top. Those shoes are great too!

You look great in it! I love the cropped legs.

Thanks, the legs were the selling point for me; well that, and the leopard print!
DeleteThis combo looks great! Love the top over the jumpsuit....versatile styling....love!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteWow, I love the jumpsuit on you. Personally I think you look amazing in it without the jumper, but I get that you might be uncomfortable with it styled that way. Its a nice piece though, they're so many things you can put over the top of it. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you. I have a fishnet sort of bathing suit cover up that's more transparent that this that I my try out next time.
DeleteMoi ca ne me va pas ce genr ede combinaison,mais sur vous c est top !
