All I have to add are accessories. Thanks for the votes, ladies!</p> <p>@SF: I grew up in Florida, where people wear more color. We have lived in places where those same prints would be considered gawdy perhaps. But we’ll be living on a beach in Mexico, where everything is colorful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256718 Sat, 26 Mar 2022 15:58:19 +0000 Janet 2256718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jumpsuits are kind of classic, in my view. I think there is enough variety in shapes and fabrications to find one that feels current and suits each person’s individual style. I have a few — one is a decade old but still seems current to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256706 Sat, 26 Mar 2022 14:23:34 +0000 Angie 2256706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES!</p> <p>I have two. One I NEVER, EVER WEAR, but am keeping. And a pink boiler suit I love and wore yesterday </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256705 Sat, 26 Mar 2022 13:49:45 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2256705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I have fun with what I wear and there certainly are people on here who think I look clownish and silly—see recent references to Tokyo style and the ongoing series of comments from people claiming I have no rules*. But at the end of the day, I know there will always be people who don’t like me or what I do, and others who do, here as out in the world. Irl, making a work-appropriate impression at work matters, but otherwise we are free to let our vibes attract our “tribes”. Wear your jumpsuits! Enjoy them! Enjoy your life with new friends you’ll meet and old friends who come to visit! </p> <p>*not saying my style is impeccable—it certainly is not. I have posted plenty of outfits that aren’t outright winners and appreciate suggestions for improvement. There were at least 2 clunkers in my latest WIW, both in “my” berry colors. But noting that things are sometimes off is one thing; not recognizing any sort of pattern in the dots is another (&amp; of course, if you don’t see the sequence, you can’t predict/suggest the next step or say what doesn’t fit). I’m still trying to figure what this means. Other people do see consistent colors, styles and rules in pieces I’ve collected over decades, even if I’m juxtaposing them in new, cheekier ways. It’s an interesting puzzle, but that’s psychology, not fashion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256703 Sat, 26 Mar 2022 13:18:55 +0000 Anonymous 2256703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@SF: Thanks! I bought 2 prints (1 tropical palm, 1 animal) &amp; 1 black, I figure the worst that could happen is that I’d end up wearing them around the house. I’m approaching 61, &amp; have decided that it’s time for me to start having fun with my clothes, as long as I don’t look clownish or silly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256670 Sat, 26 Mar 2022 09:10:17 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2256670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your jumpsuits sound perfect for your new surroundings. I jumped on the jumpsuit bandwagon a couple years ago with 3 new ones and one I unearthed from the 90s, and expect to wear them a long time. I think jumpsuits (&amp; coveralls) are going to do what skinny jeans have done and hang around for a long, long time, neither trendy or passé. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256531 Fri, 25 Mar 2022 18:20:20 +0000 Anonymous 2256531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look, but am personally scared to wear them for the loo factor! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256254 Thu, 24 Mar 2022 03:27:22 +0000 Bijou 2256254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think jumpsuits are practical and so are always going to be around. I wear styles like Sal's jumpsuit which for me are a good alternative to a dress. I wear the two floral jumpsuits on a regular basis as they are so comfy to wear. I have been been hesitant to buy overalls and boilersuits as they don't suit my style but I have loved them on other forum members and think they are a classic casual look that work well as an alternative to jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256241 Thu, 24 Mar 2022 00:12:50 +0000 Anonymous 2256241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Sal: Yes, it takes some shopping around to find the right ones for personal coloring &amp; body type. For example, some are not cut for my curvy body, &amp; many are black. I don’t wear black that much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256238 Wed, 23 Mar 2022 23:32:00 +0000 Sal 2256238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one - which I love - but I would consider another one if I found the perfect addition!&nbsp; I love them for easy at home evenings or weekends - I wear mine with birkenstocks or sneakers mostly.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256227 Wed, 23 Mar 2022 22:06:33 +0000 Anonymous 2256227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Lana: All 3 of my jumpsuits have wide legs, but are petite size that I need.

Or a scarf + topper, like my most recent WIW post? I've even seen some folk wear theirs with a jumper (sweater) &amp; a belt around the waist to hold it all in place </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256112 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 22:54:02 +0000 Becoming Alyssa 2256112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@quinta22: A couple of mine are a bit revealing, but I wear a cute lacy bralette underneath. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256109 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 21:30:22 +0000 Anonymous 2256109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ Lana: I know, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256097 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 19:38:37 +0000 Lana 2256097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have knit one I wear at home but would love to figure out how to wear it in public. &nbsp;LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256096 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 19:37:53 +0000 rachylou 2256096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seconding kkards </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256087 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 19:06:20 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2256087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256086 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 19:02:17 +0000 Becoming Alyssa 2256086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with quinta22, I love to wear jumpsuits in the spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumpsuits-1#post-2256080 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 17:41:45 +0000 Anonymous 2256080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am always slow to embrace fashion trends for some reason, but I bought a jumpsuit that looks &amp; feels great, then decided to order 2 more.
