HOW TO STYLE: Sheer Sleeved Black Jumpsuit *Valentine’s Day INSPO*

Happy #FASHIONWEDNESDAY!!! I have been waiting to shoot this outfit for a couple weeks because I just KNEW it was going to be fantastic for Valentine’s Day. I got this black jumpsuit from Shop Hopes (one of my all time favorite clothing stores) – but it sold out almost immediately. I’ll be linking some similar jumpsuits from Amazon so you can snag one for your next date night! Let’s dive into this.

HOW TO STYLE: Sheer Sleeved Black Jumpsuit *Valentine’s Day INSPO*

The Key Piece: The Jumpsuit

I am OBSESSED with this black jumpsuit. I feel SO sexy and confident in this outfit – and it’s perfect for a variety of situations. It’s obviously a little bit dressy so it’s great for date night. It’s so comfortable, and the sheer sleeves literally make this entire look. You can go with any color, obviously, but the black shade is so chic. It’s also a great brunch with the girl’s piece or even a formal event with your significant other. 

The fit: when you are purchasing a jumpsuit, you have to look at the item critically. Jumpsuits have a tendency so look a little bit funny around the hips/crotch region so make sure there is enough fabric here to make sure it isn’t too tight. You want some stretch to the material so that it hugs your hips just enough to give you shape, but not so much that it looks skin tight. I prefer my jumpsuit tops to be a little bit looser, because I like a little bit of movement. 

Shoes:

You have a couple options here. I LOVE the look of strappy heels (like paired in this post). They are classy and fabulous. You can also go with pointed toe nude heels (because hello gorgeous) or glittery flats. For date night, I’d go with the strappy black kitten heels. For a dressy event, I’d go with the pointed toe nude heels. For brunch, I’d go for the glittery flats!

Accessories:

If you are wearing the strappy black heels, you want to stick with metallic accents. Gold is my preferred color! I love my simple, dainty necklaces (you can see all my staple jewelry HERE) and bracelet accents. Bold gold earrings are what I’d go with here! Feel free to add a little bit of color to these earrings for a pop.

If you are going for the nude heels, go with pearls as your jewelry! It’ll look chic and classic. With the glittery flats, I’d keep it really simple and toned down with a solitaire pendant necklace and stud earrings.

Undergarments:

As far as undergarments that work best with jumpsuits like this (they can tend to be a bit unforgiving with the satin-like material) – I have fallen in love with SKIMS!! I have tried a lot of shape wear, and so far this is my favorite. The shade MICA is the best match for my skin. The sculpting bodysuit is PERFECT for a jumpsuit like this!

Do you have Valentine’s Day plans this year?! We don’t celebrate too much but we are planning on doing a ,order mystery dinner party! 

Would you wear a jumpsuit like this??? How would you style it?
