I’ve been known to pull in a little boho here and there, but I never thought I’d sport a full stop wide-leg paisley jumpsuit.
Until this weekend.
Nordstrom convinced me (as it usually does). I pulled this hunter green number off the rack with a smirk on my face. It was one of those pieces that had the potential to be really bad, or really good.
Guess what? It was really good. If you follow me on twitter, the dressing room pic might’ve crossed your timeline.
Despite being a huge fan of skinny jeans, I love the wide leg on this jumpsuit. (A pair of wedges allow the hem to just barely dust the ground– so 70s.) The slouch at the waist keeps it from being too dated, I’m digging the borrowed-from-the-boys paisley print, and the thin straps show off the shoulders. Dark green is a great color for fall, but a burgundy blazer makes it even more so + office-friendly.
Removing the blazer shows off my favorite feature of the jumpsuit: low-cut sides. Makes it feel a bit like silk overalls (in a good way), and gives you the option of showing off a lace bralette.
This blog has really become a reason for me to try on– and then buy– outrageous pieces, am I right? I feel quite Rachel Zoe in this jumpsuit, or at least approaching Zoe territory. All I need is a big floppy felt hat…
Would you wear a jumpsuit?
Linking up today with I Feel Pretty via Get Your Pretty On.
I think you look awesome! I never would’ve even tried this on, but it’s a really cool look. I love it on you!
Gorgeous! Hunter and cranberry go really well together- and that lipstick is crazy good on you, Ash! 🙂
Risky but soooo cute!
Love your lips!
Wow, girl- I love this outfit! Wouldn’t have occurred to me to pair and romper and a blazer, but it totally works! Awesome look!

A jumpsuit is a fun idea- I wouldn’t have the courage to wear it but I LOVE IT on you!
Omg you look amazing! I definitely don’t think I could ever pull off a jump suit – like EVER. lol. You look stunning! I am really digging the fun print – I feel like some jump suits can get a little to Kadashian for my taste, this one is just perfect.
xox! Lara http://www.weheartbeautyblog.com
I was surprised how this looked once I got it on; definitely wasn’t expecting to LOVE IT. 😉 Thanks, Lara!
Great look dear! I love your jumpsuit!
Kiss!

Wow, you pull that off so well! I am going to be traveling soon – looks like the perfect plane outfit! 🙂
Oooh- good idea, Rach. Total plane outfit en route to somewhere tropical- would keep your legs warm in-flight, and then you could still keep cool once on the ground. 🙂
If anyone can make a jump suit work, it’s you! LOL. I absolutely love this, and that dark lip looks incredible on you. So gorgeous, Ashley!
I’m loving this, lady! 🙂
Gorg! Work, lady!
That MAC lip combo is STUNNING! I absolutely love it- just bought the items and I can’t wait for them to arrive so I can give this look a go. 🙂 🙂

Yay for vampy lips! 🙂
What a fun fall look!
You definitely rock that dark lip so well!
MAC is my favorite brand for lipsticks and lipglosses- the colors are so rich and pretty!
This jumpsuit is gorgeous and I LOVE this lip color on you!
I love a good jumpsuit, especially in silky, paper-thin fabric! Makes me want to glamorously lounge around on a chaise and sip champagne all day!
Just a little photography tip, if you’re interested. Try positioning the camera at waist level, as opposed to eye level. It’s a much more flattering angle, perfect for outfit shots! XOXO
Hi Oksana- thanks for stopping by and thanks for the photog tip! I’ll have to give it a go. 🙂
Ohmygoodness I could never, ever pull this off, but you look amazing! The green and burgundy looks great together.
I seriously LOVE that jumpsuit! And it looks ah-maze-ing with your blazer! So chic!
That jumpsuit looks cute on you…
though I couldn’t wear one myself.
One of your best looks ever Ashley. I love this emerald jumpsuit.

You never know until you try, e! 🙂
Turning some heads in a jumpsuit! 🙂
Lovely!
Awesome post.
You look so good Ashley, this jumpsuit and color looks pretty good on you :). Your hair looks as if you’ve lightened it more. 🙂
Thanks so much, doll! And my hair does look a bit lighter- but only because I’m wearing it straight here. 😉
The boho jumpsuit is lovely and goes well with a blazer!

I love it!! I just love those pieces you think look silly and then you try them on and they look fab. It’s a nice surprise. And can we talk about the gorgeous blazer you are wearing?? That color is beautiful!
That is a statement piece! The color palette is perfection – green and burgundy. Love that it’s cut low on the sides too. You could really dress it up for night out with strappy heels and gold jewelry. LOVE!
Totally a statement piece- and strappy heels + gold jewelry sounds perfect! Love the idea. Thanks Alison!
cool suit)
Amazing jumpsuit, lovely print!!! And your blazer is very cool!!!
