Jumpsuits: The Perfect Mommy-and-Me Trend for Summer 2014
When my sister visited a few weeks ago, I found myself reaching for a jumpsuit every day. She commented on how much she loved them, and that’s when I declared it the "Summer of the Jumpsuit." There’s no denying the effortless ease of a jumpsuit, which is why I’ve become so partial to them this summer. I especially love them in vibrant colors or fun prints because they brighten up any occasion—from a playdate or picnic in the park to a dressy night out.
In a previous post, "Rompers," I mentioned that rompers and jumpsuits were everywhere during Spring/Summer '14 Fashion Week. This trend is still going strong, with jumpsuits popping up on girls everywhere this summer. But what really sold me on their popularity is the fact that both Net-a-Porter and AlexandAlexa now have "Jumpsuits" as a category on their clothing menus. Could the jumpsuit be the new dress? I truly believe it’s a staple every girl—regardless of age—needs in her closet.
Like rompers, I especially love jumpsuits for little girls because they’re easy to throw on before heading out to play. Not only are jumpsuits perfect for summer, but your little one can also wear one this fall, paired with a cozy sweater like the Peek 'Aria' Open Stitch Cardigan or the Tucker + Tate 'Louisa' Sweater, and a cool pair of high-tops like these adidas 'Court Attitude' Sneaker.
What are you waiting for? It’s time to add a jumpsuit to both your and your daughter’s wardrobes!
