Now, I have never thought that at my size (16-18) that a jumpsuit was something that I would be interested in, let alone look quite good on me (well in my opinion..anyway). I've always seen them as a skinny girl outfit and never looked twice at them. Recently though, City Chic has brought out some great simple jumpsuits that are funky enough to get noticed, but comfy enough to wear to work, a day out or even a night out!
So..the other day I took a squiz at the CC website and saw that the jumpsuits were on sale and thought that I might try my hand at them. So I did the deed and purchased the "Mono Madness" Jumpsuit. See below for pic:
As usual, CC clothing turns up promptly and always in great condition! Now, I have to tell you that I am not a leggy brunette...I am much the opposite! Im short! There..I said it!! With this in mind, I thought that being on the smaller side that the jumpsuit would swamp me. Well...it didnt! I am happy to say that it actually fit quite well in all the right places. I went for a small in CC sizing (16-18) and its just right!. It sits nicely around my legs, giving me enough room to move and provides comfort around my middle. The top elastic is tight enough to define the area, but loose enough to easily fit my larger bust. By now you are probably thinking what it looks like on an average person just like me, so here are some pics that I took to show the different looks that I think you can achieve with the 'Mono Madness' jumpsuit:
Look 1 - Work
I teamed the jumpsuit with a CC peplum jacket, CC belt and my yellow Kardashian bag for a pop of colour!
Look 2 - Daytime/Weekend fun
This time I teamed the jumpsuit with a bright pink cardigan bought from SES
a couple of years ago and a brown belt from CC.
So what do you think?
