A Relaxed Boiler Suit

Deborah

Veteran

Hello,

Life has been busy so haven’t been around as much as I would like. Was excited to read the blog as I love a boiler suit / Jumpsuit and I have a few.

This pic is from a couple of months back and it’s a less structured version of a boiler suit. Many that I see have more structure and tailoring.. Mine is linen, has a slightly dropped crotch, buttons at the front and is insanely comfy.

I am looking forward to trying it with a tailored blazer when it gets a bit cooler.

Thanks for having a look.

Deb -- pure love! I do love the look of a boiler suit but can't wear one myself, so I will use your photo as my ideal for what I would want to look like if I could.

YLF, love the unstructuredness of this. Just the right amount of slouch, and the open toe booties work really well

Love it - looks fabulous! This is similarly cut to my lavender/lilac jumpsuit in the 80's. It could be worn loose or with a matching material sash that I tied in an obi style. I would love one like this now. What brand is it?

So good. Contrasting the casual boiler with the booties, clutch and earrings is wonderful.

That is a great jumpsuit! Yes, I see the similarity to mine, although mine has the elasticated waist. And the bag is amazing! You always accessorize so well.

Fab! You've managed to make the boiler suit look so chic! Yours reminds me of a jumpsuit I had in the '80's that I loved. Similar style, but it was made out of whit paper (polyurethane) with black paint spatters. I wore it with the best hip belt ever.

I think a blazer would be so interesting!

This is a dynamite look! I like the softness that linen lends to the boilersuit style.

This is gorgeous with your clutch and earrings. I think I could wear a jumpsuit that comfortable 24/7

Really chic but also comfy looking! I love a dropped crotch! I find those 3/4 length sleeves to be tricky, but they look perfect on you. And your clutch is so interesting and eye-catching--it's like a piece of art to be carried around :).

@lisa p the bag was bought from a local shoe store. There is no label in the bag so I think it might be there own brand which is iShoes xxx

And thank you for the Boiler suit love. It really meets my criteria for comfort xx
