Yes, they look super comfortable, but for someone as short as myself, I believe the look feels... too childlish. The links above shows two black ones I find... bearable.

The black and tan print does not translate well here, and contributes to a pajama-y vibe. </p> <p>I love the cut of the one you linked to, Irene, but I don't think head to toe bright red is in the cards for me. Would love an easy, sophisticated black one though. </p> <p>Donna, I thought about the bathroom thing while I was trying this on. I think the sleeveless cut, the simple buttons and tie belt make this one easy on and easy off. I would look for something similarly easy if I went for one. Fortunately, since my hysterectomy a few weeks ago, I'm not as susceptible to teeny-tiny bladder syndrome so much anymore! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953706 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 23:44:14 +0000 Archer 953706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Thistle on jumpsuits- too much hassle in the loo. But- a black one on you I think would look great- needs height. I think you have probably already got a black one in mind by now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953693 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 23:37:26 +0000 unfrumped 953693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What they said. A jumpsuit is not off the table, but this one doesn't do for you what a fab jumpsuit could, and that's the only reason to wear one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953661 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 23:02:38 +0000 Thistle 953661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think this is good enough for you. I do have a poison eye for jumpsuits, though. They just remind me of what I dress my DD in, but at least hers have snaps for easy diaper changes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953657 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 23:00:14 +0000 rachylou 953657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ya. Love the idea of a jumpsuit... just not this jumpsuit. It's the waist for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953632 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 22:31:33 +0000 DonnaF 953632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One thing about jumpsuits:&nbsp; They are a PITA when you have to go to the bathroom, esp. in a public venue and esp. if you're in a rush.&nbsp; I wore one once to the symphony, and it had buttons at the cuffs and a belt that had to be undone.&nbsp; I was not popular with the line behind me.&nbsp; I just noticed the belt on this one. . . .</p> <p>In addition to the squatting and sitting tests, be sure to stretch your arms to the sky.&nbsp; Forgot to do that on one jumpsuit purchase.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953628 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 22:24:17 +0000 Diana 953628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this particular jumpsuit is a little too shapeless and pajama-ey.&nbsp; I like the shape of the one Irene linked to though - it has a bit more structure and I think you'd look smashing in that silhouette.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953625 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 22:15:17 +0000 K. Period. 953625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, I was lukewarm on this too, loving the idea and kinda the slouchy shape but not the whole thing. When you said simple black one, I had a vision of you in it with&nbsp;a modern&nbsp;silver or gold cuff and I just about fainted with the loveliness. &nbsp;I think yours is a&nbsp;<i>brilliant&nbsp;</i>idea! &nbsp;The glamour! The ease! The sophistication! </p> <p>Dizzy! </p> <p>*PLONK!*&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953614 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 22:00:52 +0000 Lyn D. 953614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is O,K, but I would feel the need for a topper with this one, to balance the lower half. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953609 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:56:22 +0000 Janet 953609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep! You all are giving me good feedback and helping me pinpoint my hesitation. Would love a simple black one. </p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953604 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:50:19 +0000 Anonymous 953604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can conceive of you in a jumpsuit but not this one. It is too wide at low hip or something, and the colour doesn't suit you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953602 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:48:29 +0000 Mo 953602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am torn, like Una. &nbsp;Like the idea, but maybe not the execution with this particular one. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953600 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:47:45 +0000 catgirl 953600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I just had a thought - in looking at the proportions as a separate top and pants &nbsp;(as defined by the waist), that's what is off to me. If the top were a top, or the bottom were pants, they wouldn't be PPP. &nbsp;But if you could find the elusive jumpsuit that WAS, it would work!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953595 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:44:17 +0000 Raisin 953595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have an attraction to jumpsuits right now too, but the shorts versions. </p> <p>I think the silhouette works on you but I don't like the color. The color makes it look drab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953593 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:41:45 +0000 Irene 953593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks as good (or as bad) as it would look on me -been there, done that. I wouldn't keep it. I like the idea of a jumpsuit, just not this jumpsuit. </p> <p><a href="http://www.zara.com/es/es/mujer/monos/mono-flu%C3%ADdo-con-cintur%C3%B3n-c399001p1295468.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.zara.com/es/es/muje.....95468.html</a></p> <p>I know this one is VERY red, but I like that it is more tapered on top and that it clinches at the waist.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953589 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:35:28 +0000 catgirl 953589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it but I don't LOVE it. &nbsp;Maybe the color? &nbsp;You definitely wear the silhouette well but to me this is neither casually cute nor sexy 70s glam, if that makes sense. It has a 90s look. &nbsp;It doesn't get you! &nbsp;I can definitely see you in A jumpsuit, with your long legs and svelte upper bod. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuit----ridic-or-no#post-953584 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:33:15 +0000 Janet 953584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One leg is sorta rolled up, the other not. It's so far out of my usual silhouette that I'm not sure whether this is easy casual slouchy trendy cute or... something else less desirable. </p> <p>Brutal honesty please! </p>
