J Crew: Drapey Crepe Oxford Jumpsuit, Denim Jacket in Ecru Wash, Garden Party Necklace

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

~ Drapey Crepe Oxford Jumpsuit, Black, size 6 ~
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!

    I think you should get the ecru jacket, it looks good! So funny, how could we live without jumpsuits for so long???

      Thanks Ema. I found one very similar at Loft this weekend that's a Linen/Cotton blend. It's very lightweight and almost the exact same color. I can't stop looking for jumpsuits now! But I'm going to try to hold myself to just this one.

    I'm so glad you reviewed the jumpsuit! I'd love to try it, but am not sure of the sizing. Sometimes I need a petite and sometimes a regular size is better. Happy Anniversary. I hope you have a lovely dinner and I can't wait to see your outfit.

      Maryeb – I really thought I would need a size 8 just based on my pants size but I would have been swimming in it. The 8 Petite would probably have fit similar to the size 6 but with the inseam a little shorter. Definitely size down one or go with your Petite size. And just an FYI…Loft has one that is very similar. I just saw it this weekend.
