How many times do we need to hear “never say never” to believe it? Apparently I need to hear it again.
I’ve been all over (and not in a good way) drop-crotch pants for quite some time—my favorite whipping boy being the harem pant. Now I still cannot go there. But I did find myself in a dressing room a couple weeks ago, in a jumpsuit with a slightly lower seat, and I was smitten. To the tune of not one jumpsuit, but two are now hanging in my closet. (I told you I have a bad habit of buying in twos). But between the price, the fit, and the idea that it’s a complete outfit in itself? Sold. Brilliant.
Not so brilliant? Going to the lavy.
Good thing I only bought two. Undoing the whole schebang, removing the belt for every trip? It blows. Not an outfit for a libertine and a night of libations. But still fun. This is actually what I wore to see SATC2 with my lovely gal pal, H.
*WVW=What V Wore
Benetton jumpsuit and belt, Michael Kors sandals, gifted Amanda Deer anchor necklace (more about that in a future post),

I know what you mean about jumpsuits … I too was hating on them when they first appeared but now I find myself totally crushing on some of the more streamlined ones.

It happens…with leggings, jumpsuits…you just never know. It’s all about finding that perfect piece/look to win you over.

I am so loving your lip colour and the necklaces!!!
I totally concur with FB, now they’ve made a come-back… although i was bought a crepe black halter neck harem jumpsuit yonks ago so i been in love with them for a while. They have a wide cuff at the hem and are very loose in the leg, so i do feel a bit ‘I dream of Genie’ or whatever that TV show was years ago when i wear mine!

Thank you! As I said above, I think when you finally find the right piece for YOU, it totally changes your perspective. That’s my theory anyway.
As always, thanks for your comment!

Thanks hon!
I love this look. Grey is usually such a drab color, but it’s SO in right now and you wear it well.

Thank you so much! Ever since I saw Angelina Jolie do grey and gold at some awards show years ago, I’ve been in love with this combo. I think the warmth of the gold is what keeps grey from being so drab. As does a warm shade of brown.
