Last Wednesday was our 15th Wedding Anniversary. Unfortunately, Husband had to leave for San Francisco early in the morning so we were unable to celebrate until he returned on Friday. We had dinner on the Riverwalk and went to see John Mulaney later that night. As soon as I tried on the Drapey Crepe Oxford Jumpsuit, I knew that I wanted to wear it for our night out.

It was pretty warm and humid that evening so the sleeveless worked well. I laughed so much in the theater that it kept me warm enough. The jumpsuit was long so I did a quick hem with double-sided Hollywood tape. I love the length and dropped it off at the tailor to get it properly hemmed. 

I chose the Shilling Bib Necklace, which I bought on a whim after seeing it styled in the store. The bracelets are the Sparrow Cuff and a C.Wonder initial cuff. The clutch is actually a wallet/cross-body from Tory Burch that I purchased during the SPRING event. The cross-body strap came in very handy when we were walking around downtown.

The shoes are Talbot’s from a few years ago. They were the worst to wear! The front of the criss-cross strap dug into the top of my toes causing blisters. Husband said the restaurant and theater were near each other when they were actually several blocks from each other. I’ll have to find another pair that are similar, since I really like them.

Despite the shoe issues, I really loved this outfit and the anniversary celebration was wonderful.

I came up with a few outfits, planned all via my Stylebook app. This first one is super casual with Gladiator Flats and a denim jacket. This is actually a great outfit for my trip next week to San Diego. Husband has a work trip and I’m tagging along. What should I do with my time during the day?

I knew I wanted to pair Leopard with this Jumpsuit as well and I already have the Lillian Wedge Sandal in Calf-Hair from J Crew. I love the turquoise-colored stone necklace to bring some unexpected color on top of the black. The Cross-body ties all the colors together.

Of course Espadrilles like the Sevilles from J Crew will work well too. I wore the Metallic Espadrilles in the fitting room and it worked. I think the Bright Citrus from last year will look great with the Jumpsuit too.

Any thoughts on how you would style the Drapey Crepe Oxford Jumpsuit? I’d love to hear them.

I though I would start with one of my very favorites from my fitting room try-ons last week, the Drapey Crepe Oxford Jumpsuit.

My VPS added this jumpsuit to my fitting room and it took me completely by surprise. I did not expect to like this so much. The ‘Crepe’ is a Lyocell/Viscose blend and is very comfortable and somewhat soft against the skin. The size 6 fit surprisingly well, with only some hemming in the length needed. The waist is elastic on the side and the jumpsuit has a back zip, hidden. I was not planning on getting into the jumpsuit trend but now I can’t decide if I want another one in the Naples Blue color. I think the black is a nice choice and you can mix and match a lot of jewelry and shoes with it. I bought this and have already worn it. More to come this evening. 
  

This was a nice necklace and helped make a statement with the jumpsuit. It jingled a little and the flowers were a little too bulk for me but overall it’s a nice necklace to jazz up your outfit. 

I did not think this jacket would go with anything, in this Ecru Wash but it paired well with the jumpsuit and I even used it to create an outfit with the Gold Foil Leaf Pencil Skirt. The Medium was the right fit and I found the color flattering against my skin-tone. 

I didn’t buy it that day but am debating as I have a few other items at home that this jacket will go with.

I can’t wait to share my outfit from our Anniversary dinner with you later this evening along with a few other styling ideas for the Drapey Crepe Oxford Jumpsuit. 

Have a Great Day!
