Jump To The Suit


Would you dare to wear a jumpsuit? Since it's a one-piece, a lot of fashionistas think that the jumpsuit is one of the most difficult items to pull off. But contrary to what you may believe, the jumpsuit (with a little bit confidence) CAN be a surprisingly easy piece to wear. It only needs to be styled in a certain way that won't make you look like a studio 54 queen nor like a prison inmate.

I found this jumpsuit at TopShop and I loved it instantly! It has the right fit and color. Pair it with patent colored high-heels, chunky colored necklace or layers of Gold chains a-la-Chivenchy-style, and wear your hair in a high-sleek pony tail or let it down in loose waves. Whatever you do, don't wear it with your converse sneakers. You don't want to look like an extra in Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl" video clip.

lol Uptown Girl

Not particularly in love with jumpsuits, although your styling tips could actually convince me to it! Honestly, I think its a very fine line between looking stylish and stupid with this one.

...Maybe, maybe on vacation

I have always darned wearing jumpsuits, since my body does not really fit into one with a perfect shape. However I saw this one in Topshop last week and I fell in love with it because it’s actually loose. I may go and purchase it, but as you have already stated I have to have confidence and I do lack confidence!!

I would wear it, But I would never spend So much money on a good jumpsuit like Stella McCartney. But some fashionistas are saying that jumpsuits are staying to late next year.
Personally I will wear it for the fun of it once or twice and the Topshop jumpsuit is a bargain, thank you!

the short ones are the most flattering with gladiator flats or even wedges. the long jumpsuits are tricky especially on me because im not so tall so they can be overbearing especially in the thick denim Topshop makes them in.

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
