The gray bodysuit is back with an 80s twist.

I’m starting to re-introduce jeans to the regular outfit rotation as fall inches closer. (But only on days where it’s actually cool enough!) This day temps were in the mid-70s, which was perfect to mix and match some summer and fall pieces. A gray bodysuit (last seen here) brought the warm weather feel and the 80s-style mom jeans worked in a bit of fall.

Mom jeans can be a bit tricky to style. There’s just a lot of fabric around the torso + pelvic area, which can create a hard-to-dress panel of denim. I combat this by wearing a fitted top (or bodysuit, rather) and defining the waist with a belt. (An on-trend snakeskin belt is a good choice; I like this one and this one.)

The legs of these jeans are a straight cut, which can also prove difficult. Adding the illusion of length is key for me, so I added a pair of gray suede sandals with a nice stacked heel. If you think you can’t wear a straight leg, grab a shoe with some height and see if that doesn’t fix the issue.

Shop the look:

I’m still really loving this initial necklace I found on Etsy. It’s a dupe for a more expensive version that’s always sold out at Nordstrom. I love layering it with other dainty gold necklaces, but it definitely works worn on its own.

And if you’re wondering what I wear under this bodysuit (because it is pretty thin + low-cut), I use boob tape. Cover the nips, lift, and tape! I use Perky Pear and the tape has really come in handy with tricky tops and dresses that have complicated or low-cut necklines.

Hope everyone has a good week ahead!

  2. You know I love the 80s so this is pretty much perfection in my eyes! Nothing like a good bodysuit and a pair of awesome bluejeans! You look dynamite my doll!

  4. Watching you make fashion choices and explain the thinking behind them is educational. There’s subtlety in this simple outfit which eluded me until you described what you did — and then it makes sense to me. Thanks for that — and the boob-tape link. Aids like that are very useful in creating a feminine life.

    1. I’m glad you find it helpful! I feel like explaining the what/the why can help someone who is trying to test drive a trend for their body be more successful.

    1. You gotta give Perky Pear a try- it really helped with a little bit of coverage (and lift!) for a skimpier piece like this bodysuit. Thanks so much for swinging by, Kimberly!
