Jump Around

Blazer (Forever 21, similar here), Jumpsuit (Zara on MAJOR sale over the holidays, similar here) Shoes (KORS Michael Kors, similar here), Necklaces (Dogeared and Urban Outfitters), Watch (Fakety-fake-fake-fake $20 at BP. here)

Jumpsuits are weird! Especially within the context of a Silicon Valley web start-up office environment (I'm still trying to decide if I could ever wear this to work...probably not). But Bianca Jagger knew what was upfor like, a million reasonsand sometimes jumpsuits, when not worn frivolously or ironically, can look über chic and super sexy (despite the fact that you're basically wearing a sack).

The um, bag-like nature of the garment needs the structure of a piece like a classically crisp black blazer (a girl, or guy for that matter, can never have enough blazers; load up), and the no-fuss, strappy sandals balance out all of the fabric and volume happening above, by keeping things light and clean, and by showing a little bit of skin (since the rest of me is basically in a blanket). The look is simple, but the forms and silhouettes do all the talking for you. When daring to jumpsuit, do as The Wolf does and keep it clean.
