Let me start off by saying this… never in a million years did I ever think you’d find me in a jumpsuit! For some reason, the idea of plunging vnecks and bodycon always comes to mind when thinking about the style, and let’s just take a moment of silence for how that sort of contraption would look on my 5’2″ frame.

But earlier this summer, while putting together my weekly Latest & Greatest roundup (did you see the one I posted yesterday?) I came across a piece that changed all that, this eyelet popover jumpsuit. Before I knew it, I was creating outfits staring this beauty in my head and scouring the shipping options to see just how quickly I could get it to my doorstep.

I didn’t think it was possible, but this jumpsuit epitomizes that sweet southern style I’m always on the lookout for. I truly think it’s the eyelet detailing on the hemlines that make this piece so utterly feminine and charming. I also love how billowy and blousy this jumpsuit is – a far-cry from the image that came to mind when I initially thought of “jumpsuits.” While this one comes with delicate straps, I tucked them in for a completely strapless look and love the result!

Unfortunately, this cute thing was so popular that it’s currently unavailable in white, but you’ll find it in a gorgeous light blue shade here! For sizing reference, I’m in a 4 US.

Love from Texas,

Kate
