JOY LOVES FASHION

Guess whose become completely jumpsuit obsessed?! Now that we’re at the 3rd jumpsuit of my ‘How To Wear’ segment, I’ve quickly fallen deeply in love with the awesome simplicity of this one piece. The allure of the jumpsuit lies in it’s ability to always look pulled together at the drop of a dime. Today, I tried a printed one and piled on a few more prints!

This jumpsuit has a boho vibe to it so I opted for a printed turban, reptilian bangle and sandals in subtle hues. I let the clutch pop and be the star of the show. When playing with prints, don’t go overboard. Stay in one color family to keep things balanced. But always stay open to experimenting! Fashion is meant to be fun!

Guys, I’m so excited about this bandeau jumpsuit. Believe it or not, I’ve never worn one before but now I’m definitely hooked for life. Talk about insanely comfortable, this American Rag jumpsuit from Macy’s (on sale now until tomorrow-  for just $35! Crazy) feels like heaven. Plus the slouchy fit makes for a great ‘lazy day outfit’ without looking boring. This color is Pagoda Blue and I’m wearing a size small.

This is probably the 2nd tie dyed item I’ve ever owned and I love that the print is more subdued, making it a good foundation for another print. And you know how much I love a good mixed print situation! I added a black and white turban and shades for a quiet kind of wow factor. I left my chest bare of accessories and decided on multi colored bangles. Since this jumpsuit is on the slouchy side, the bare skin adds some sex appeal. Then I threw on my monogrammed Rebecca Minkoff leather clutch and these awesome gladiator sandals from Heart Soul that I got from DSW. Perfect weekend look!

 [How To Wear] a Wide Legged Jumpsuit

Happy Friday, my loves! It’s a beautiful sunny day here in NYC, perfect time to put out my latest ‘How to Wear’ series, this time we’re focused on jumpsuits! This jumpsuit is one of those uber classic pieces that we women just can’t do without. Like a dress- it’s a whole outfit in 1 piece, making it easy for throwing on when you’re in a rush and don’t have tons of time to accessorize + coordinate.

Today I’m focusing on the wide legged jumpsuit. I love this one by XOXO (available in Macy’s). It has a playful denim look w/clean tailored lines. Plus it comes with a belt attached, easy-peesy, baby! I’ve been in a serious hat phase for the past month, as you’ve probably seen on Instagram (follow me if you aren’t already!xo). After a cool hat, the only other things you’ll need are a dope clutch and some strappy heels.

My fiancé Obi and I shot this look in Harlem in front of Keith Haring’s iconic mural from the 80s. So cool.

Wearing: XOXO jumpsuit from Macy’s (on sale now!!) / Aldo x Preen heels (similarly awesome) / Vintage clutch (obsessed w/ this one!) / thrifted hat (I love the way men’s hats look- so swaggy) / Fossil watch / Curlsistas midi-rings from my new online store!! (I wear these daily and they add just the right edge to any look!)
