The Must-Have Closet Staple: Jumpsuits

“Effortless style” is a phrase that’s often used but rarely achieved. (We all know those “effortless waves” actually took 30 minutes and just as many hair products to create, right?) But in our opinion, the elusive no-effort outfit that everyone’s always searching for — something you can throw on in a pinch, while still appearing polished — has been hiding in plain sight all along. Jumpsuits and rompers are literally a one-stop shop to enviable style! There are three main reasons why we keep putting out jumpsuits season after season: They’re easy to wear, they’re fashion-forward, and they’re appropriate for literally every occasion on your calendar. Think about it this way: Jumpsuits and rompers only require one clothing item (there’s no mixing separates or matching your blouse to your bottoms), so all the work of outfit planning is already done for you. Even the lazy girls among us can pull one on and look positively professional. These items also give off a high-fashion vibe, and are versatile enough to wear pretty much anywhere — and we can prove it. Ahead, the perfect jumpsuit to wear for any occasion, ever. For A Date For a hot date, pull on the Veronica M Black Romper-Skort. It’s our version of the classic LBD — only better. Why? Because the skort feature gives you the look of a mini skirt with ease of flowy shorts (i.e., no pulling down your hemline or worrying about inadvertently flashing your date). For Work Yes, jumpsuits are even office-appropriate. Don the Poland Surplice Jumpsuit Monday through Friday; just pair it was a basic blazer to add a layer of professionality. Once the workday is done, slip off the blazer and show off those shoulders at happy hour! For A Party Need to look festive? The sparkly gold stripes of the China Sparkle Jumpsuit can help. The body-skimming fit looks great with black pumps and a healthy dose of confidence. For Brunch Our Orleans Long Sleeve Romper features flowy bell sleeves, a fun print, and a faux-drawstring waist for the perfect casual-meets-cool look. Wear it to bottomless mimosa brunch with the girls — and get ready to field outfit compliments all afternoon. For A Networking Event Professional events can be kind of a drag, but you’ll be the talk of networking night in the Aspen Stripe Jumpsuit. The tailored fit and short sleeves say, “I’m serious;” while the bold stripe print adds, “I’m also fun to talk to.” For Everyday Errands It’s just a fact: Everyone looks good in The Debbie Jumpsuit. Its laid-back silhouette and all-black color scheme makes Debbie the ultimate everyday look for errands, carpool, or an impromptu dinner with friends. For A Cocktail Party Jumpsuits can totally be fancy. Opt for the sharp shoulders and plunging neckline of the Black Deep V Jumpsuit for your next cocktail party — it feels as comfy as pajamas, but looks as chic as evening gown. What’s coming up next on your calendar? Whatever events you have planned, we’re going to guess that a jumpsuit or romper would make for the perfect, no-effort outfit.
