Trendscape: One-Piece Jumpsuits

If you want to try something funky, buy yourself a hot one-piece jumpsuit. Sure, it’s a bit off-the-wall, but getting dressed will feel so much more effortless (just ask Jessica Simpson; she wore a striped jumpsuit to TRL). Instead of kicking back with flip-flops this summer, try a pair of high heels with your funky jumpsuit that will instantaneously take you from simple to sizzling.  The best part about this getup?  Instead of having to match a top and a bottom, the one-piece jumpsuit does the coordinating for you. If only everything in life were this simple.

Ready Made Outfit: Outdoor Summer Party

The sun is out, and we all know what that means: more barbeques
and skimpier clothes. If you’re physique isn’t quite ready for that bikini, opt for
a white minidress, accessorize it with a smile, and get ready to chow down.
Just be careful not to spill that pesky barbeque sauce; it won’t match with the rest of your girly outfit.

"Outdoor Summer Party" Fashion Formula = White Eyelet Dress + Gold Necklace + Chunky Platforms + Printed Tote.
