smiles and stripes: Transitioning Your Summer Jumpsuit for Fall with London Times

Happy Wednesday! Can y'all believe that it's already August!? Where did the summer go!? I guess what they say is true - time flies when you're having fun!

I'm so excited to share this beautiful blue jumpsuit by London Times with you today. If you've been following me for any amount of time, you probably already know about my obsession with jumpsuits. My very first blog post ever was written about my love for these one-piece wonders! Keep reading to learn what I love about this jumpsuit, as well as, how I plan to transition it into fall.

I love this particular jumpsuit for many reasons. First, the color is GORG {but if blue is not your thing, it also comes in a classic black}. Second, it's made out of a comfortable, lightweight fabric that doesn't wrinkle. A personal pet peeve of mine is when a clothing items wrinkles after sitting down. I get so angry when I get in the car in a perfectly wrinkle-free outfit and show up to work 10 min later looking like I put on clothes out of my dirty laundry hamper. Have no fear! This jumpsuit passed the car ride test! Third, it has a figure-flattering belted waistline and the cutest side slit detail on the legs. Last but not least, it is extremely versatile. It can easily be dressed up or down and can be worn year around! Dress it up for an event, like I did here, with a belt, statement earrings, clutch, and wedges or make it your go-to look for casual weekend plans sans the statement accessories and cute sandals.

Since it's already August and everyone is thinking about boots and sweaters and pumpkin spice lattes {even though it's still 90+ degrees in Atlanta ha!}, I thought I would share how I will transition this jumpsuit from summer to fall. To dress it up, I paired it with bold, statement accessories and shoes. Unfortunately, these exact earrings from francesca's are sold out, but I found a couple similar options here and here. My reversible Tory Burch belt is a closet staple. It's reversible from black to a beautiful cognac brown color which makes is super versatile. I wear it ALL. THE. TIME. and it is totally worth the investment. I love how it dresses up this jumpsuit! To spice the look up a bit, I added a pop of print with this adorable leopard clutch {that also comes with a gold cross-body chain}. Lastly, I wore my black Jack Rogers wedges to tie the look all together.

To keep my shoulders warm this fall, I'll throw on my favorite faux leather biker jacket, that just so happens to be part of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for under $60! It's fully stocked {believe it or not}, but the sale ends Sunday, August 5th. Go grab yourself one before it goes back up to full price! I've had mine for 3 years now - it's classic and great quality {I'm wearing size 4 for reference}.

As you can see, jumpsuits can easily be transitioned from summer to fall with a change of shoes and accessories. I love how this London Times jumpsuit can take your from your summer BBQ to a fall wedding or event!
