How to Style a Jumpsuit
To perfectly style a jumpsuit, consider the vibe of the occasion. You can wear the same jumpsuit to the beach, for dinner, or for movie date night. It all depends on choosing the right additions and accessories and matching them to your taste and the occasion, from a slimming bodysuit to a pair of statement earrings. To get started, follow these tips.
1. Purses/Bags
To make a statement with your style, a bag can help bring your vision to life. When traveling through the airport, a stylish backpack or a crossbody bag provides a hands-free experience and pairs well with your jumpsuit for an easy, breezy look.
If you work in an office where jumpsuits are appropriate, you can make them more professional by pairing them with a chic tote bag. Bags with boxy shapes are usually recommended to elevate your professional look.
When wearing high heels for a night out, statement jewelry, a clutch or a smaller shoulder bag adds a touch of subtle elegance. If you want the jumpsuit to be the main attraction, a small clutch or purse can hold all your items while maintaining a sense of neutrality. Be sure to choose one focal point and build the outfit from there. This will ensure that the outfit for your night out is not too busy.
2. Footwear
Shoes pull a look together, so choosing the right pair can elevate your jumpsuit in fabulous ways. The key is knowing the right shoes for the right occasions, so consider where you're going first. For running errands and being on your feet, a pair of chic white sneakers, simple flats, or loafers will keep you stylish and comfortable.
For a girls' night out, you can pair your jumpsuit with high heels that match or compliment the color of your jumpsuit. A pair of strappy sandals works perfectly for a casual look or if you aren’t comfortable walking in heels.
In the office, you can go more professional with kitten heels or patent leather flats that provide a polished look without being too flashy.
During winter, you can add knee-high boots over your jumpsuit, similar to how you wear them with skinny jeans. If the weather is hot, ditch the boots and wear closed-toe sandals for height and comfort.
3. Supportive Undergarments
What you wear underneath your clothes is just as important as the clothes themselves. For example, an ill-fitting bra can completely ruin a good outfit or make you extremely uncomfortable, which is why you must curate a solid collection of supportive undergarments like our selection of bras for women.
If you’re unsure about your undergarments or shapewear size, use the sizing chart in the product description. At Leonisa, we provide support to help you discover the bra size that works for your body through our online quiz, which can help you determine which garments match your needs.
Hats
If you’re not used to wearing hats, now’s the time to spruce up your style game by incorporating them into your wardrobe. On its own, a jumpsuit can make a dynamic statement, but pairing a hat with it helps you stand out even more.
To stylishly shield yourself from the sun, you should wear a wide-brimmed hat because it pairs well with a flowy, printed jumpsuit. On the other hand, a straw hat works great with a bohemian jumpsuit.
For a chic date night, choose a hat with more structure, like a fedora, which offers a wide brim and adds mystique. If you prefer a looser style, try a beret or a beanie for a cozy look. If you’re into sports but haven’t adopted baseball caps yet, now’s a great time to start. You can pair your jumpsuit with a fitted hat or baseball cap and stylish sneakers.
Jewerly
Jewelry acts as the spice of fashion, enhancing your jumpsuit like adding cinnamon, paprika, or oregano to a dish.
In the office, you can maintain a professional and understated appearance with elegant pearls or a classic watch. For a concert, playful bangles and striking earrings can elevate your style. For a sporty street-style vibe, combine gold bamboo earrings with a fitted cap and trendy sneakers.
For a jumpsuit with a low neckline, make a statement with a bold necklace that complements and draws attention to your neckline. Long necklaces are ideal for adding visual interest and elongating your silhouette. For earrings, you can experiment with hoops to add flair to your jumpsuit ensemble.
Belts
Belts are essential for adding style and function to your jumpsuit, so don’t hesitate to incorporate them as you aim to define your waist and enhance the appeal of your silhouette. By adding a waist cincher underneath your jumpsuit and a belt on top, you have created a beautiful hourglass figure.
For formal events, opt for belts with intricate designs featuring gold, silver, or other interesting metals. Luxurious fabrics like silk or satin can also elevate your jumpsuit’s look. In professional settings, you can choose a skinny belt that matches your jumpsuit’s color for a cohesive appearance. Layer it over a blazer to add definition to your outfit.
Whether it’s for a professional or formal occasion, you can experiment with different belt widths to find the most flattering option for your body’s shape.
7. Jackets/Vests
You can add sophistication to your jumpsuit by layering it with outerwear like vests, kimonos, and blazers. In professional settings, a fitted blazer or vest is the superior solution to match a jumpsuit, offering versatility from meetings to office dinners. Classic colors like navy blue, black, or dark brown are recommended to maintain a conservative yet stylish appearance.
For casual outings with friends or a day at the mall, a flowy jumpsuit layered with a kimono adds effortless style and comfort. Choose a kimono with playful prints or textures like silk and satin to add dimension to your outfit and convey a relaxed vibe. Everyday shapewear can also offer definition and support when wearing a more flowy outfit. You can experiment with different textures and styles of outerwear to find combinations that enhance your jumpsuit while effortlessly reflecting your style and the occasion.
Moving Forward in Style
As you move forward with your efforts to style your jumpsuits, don’t be afraid to take risks and have lots of fun. It’s through experimentation that you can uncover what works best for you and your body. Always remember to include the supportive garments from Leonisa as you get dressed each day because you deserve to feel supported and comfortable as you step out in style!
