  1. Dakota Fanning looks great in her jumpsuit. She’s matured into quite a beauty!

    #5 would be perfect for a bbq at the beach. The slouchy-ness of #11 really appeals to me.

    Great finds!

  3. Out of all these pics, Gweneth Paltrow by far looked the best in a jumpsuit followed by Dakota Fanning looking amazing in her romper. If they had stylists, they knew exactly what they were doing to get this trend done right. This is definitely a look that needs razor-sharp tailoring in order to make it work and not loose your figure in it.

  4. I agree with Mel, the jumpsuit is a hard look to pull off. It takes a slim body and loooong legs or you end up looking like my aunt at the beach! I suppose with this look a clutch is a must. Any other ideas?

  5. I’m loving the jumpsuits but find they haven’t really had much “acceptance” in Canada. Although, they’ve been a big hit in Europe for the last 2 years. Great blog just came about it.:)

  6. I really like the Aviator jumpsuit by Free People. I’m not sure why but I can just see myself rocking it.
