I’m sure that everyone has been equally overjoyed as I’ve been about the fact that we’ve finally had some nice weather! Spring was a long time coming this year, but at least it’s finally arrived. And with spring came some beautiful, beautiful daffodils in York!
I used to be a dresses only type, but lately I’ve discovered the joy of all things jumpsuits and maxi dress related. And Laura Ashley has some absolutely brilliant options in stock. I chose to style the Confetti Print Jersey Jumpsuit (on sale at the moment!) because it looked so chic and comfortable, and I’m motivated by comfortable choices. The other thing that immediately caught my eye about it was the ease with which it could be dressed up or down. I’ve gone for a dressed down option here with sandals and a day bag, but with a different pair of shoes, a glam bag and a red lip it could easily transition into a more occasion-wear piece or even a quite covetable summer wedding outfit.
I love a jumpsuit because they are just as floaty and comfortable as a good maxi dress whilst providing a bit more freedom. So that I can dance all night or climb a fence with ease. If you’re a bit nervous about jumping in to the world of jumpsuits, one like this with quite a wide leg is a great “beginner’s” jumpsuit for you because from some angles it could almost be a dress. Though it sounds silly, that might offer you some level of comfort if you’re feeling a bit self-conscious.
Though we all know that the worst thing about wearing a jumpsuit is that you have to take the whole thing off when you take a trip to the toilet, so I’d give the jumpsuit a miss for a festival or anything event where the bathrooms might be less than pristine.
I paired the outfit with this Blue Crossbody Bag as I felt that the outfit needed a bright pop of colour to truly sell it as a Rhyme & Ribbons spring look. If I was wearing this jumpsuit to a wedding or an evening do’ I’d opt for a much tinier clutch – silver most likely.
For shoes in the summertime, if I’m not wearing my Birkenstocks or my Flossy‘s, I’m wearing my Moheda slingback clogs. When I saw that Erica had bought some on instagram, I had to message her straight away to tell her that they are my most comfortable shoes and that I wish I had them in a million different colours. They don’t look like they’d be comfortable, but they really, really are. I loathe wearing heels, and when I Kondo’d my closet, I got rid of pretty much all my heels. So these are the closest thing I now own to heels and that make me so happy. #flatslifeforever
