My Favorite Banana Republic Jumpsuit
1. Utility Jumpsuit
(Banana Republic)
Jumpsuits always tend to generate a lively conversation over here on the blog. But let me state upfront: I love them.
Why? Because they give you a lot of flexibility in how you accessorize them.
This just means you can easily dress a jumpsuit up or you can dress it down all by your choice in accessories.
And, as it turns out, this utility jumpsuit from Banana Republic might actually be one of my favorites.
White and its clean white lines made going for an elevated look relatively easy.

2. Accessories
(Brahmin, Banana Republic)
I went with classic, brown-based accessories today. They complement the white jumpsuit perfectly but take a back seat just in the way I want them to. The jumpsuit is the statement piece here.
My belt is Banana Republic, just like the suit. My bag is from Brahmin.

3. Shoes
(Mia Beccar)
I wore a pair of Bree Slingbacks from Mia Beccar. To dress up this jumpsuit, you're going to want to go with a shoe with a heel.
You can wear a pair of slingback sandals like me or go with a closed-toe shoe as well.

In Case You Missed It

Good morning, Beth!
I absolutely loved this jumpsuit when I saw it on the BR website and ordered it right away. I was SO DISAPPOINTED when I tried it on and saw how wide and big the armholes were. You could see my bra in the front and back and a cami wasn’t much of an improvement. Otherwise, it fit well and the look is so chic, especially with the extended shoulders. Sadly, I returned it. I am interested in how you found the armholes in yours? I always enjoy your blog and appreciate all of your hard work!
so sorry to hear that! i’m not certain how to answer your question as i didn’t have this issue. there are photos from the side angle on the blog and the armholes fit fine. bummer!
I’m not a jumpsuit fan in general for several reasons. I dislike the sleeves on this one in particular. But, the outfit looks superb on you — really stylish and comfortable., better than on the model. The shoes are fabulous. So, happy Monday.
This jumpsuit looks great on you! I am a tall woman with broader shoulders and the style of these sleeves/shoulders would not flatter me at all. The rest of the fit is very stylish.
I love your outfit today! A++. If I could pull this off like you I would be all about it! As it is, I must stick to separates, but I can make a restroom stop easier!
Hi Beth:
I also had trouble with the sizing on this jumpsuit. I tried it on in-store and found it to be really large. I like when you tell us what size you are wearing, as I am about your height (just shy of 5’8″ and similar build). It really helps with the inconsistency in sizing from brand-to-brand, and makes ordering online a little less challenging.
Thanks!
thanks for the feedback. one thing that might have made a difference with this jumpsuit is i cinched a belt around my waist instead of relying on
the self-tie belt. little details like this make all the difference.
