Although jumpsuits have been having their moment for a few seasons now, the trend is definitely looking to continue for at least another one yet. The only thing that seems to be changing is the variety of styles now available. The Autumn/Winter collections that are hitting stores this Feb will offer more sophisticated tailored styles with longer sleeves, full-length legs and more structured fabrics.
The photo below of Kate Bosworth is from a few seasons back however it's one of my favourite celebrity jumpsuit looks. She gets the ‘casual’ jumpsuit look down so perfectly, lose fitting, yet not baggy, you can see that the top of her jumpsuit is well structured and fits her petite figure flawlessly, the bottom half is comfortably loose, however the jumpsuit is cinched in at the waist with tapered in legs, creating the most flattering of silhouettes. Her casual flats and minimal accessories make her ensemble the perfect weekend outfit.
The street style pic from stockholmstreetstyle is winter jumpsuit perfection. She's kept the look simple with the contrasting red clutch giving the ensemble just the right amount of pop.

Tips:
- Steer clear of satin especially in light colours, this light reflecting fabric can be really unflattering.
- Make sure it fits correctly, too tight (no matter how great your body is) just isn’t pretty and although ‘slouchy’ can looks super stylish, too loose will make you look 2 sizes bigger than you really are.
- When it comes to accessorizing jumpsuits, keep it minimal. The jumpsuit is the item that is making the statement so add a bit of frosting but don’t go overboard
