Little did I know, a pic I posted in prep for last Thursday's UNCUT! event which I moderated featuring Paul C. Brunson, would gain the traction that it did everywhere from Twitter to Instagram and BEYOND! Moreso than anything else I posted last week. So the story goes ...
I totally dress according to my mood. Follow me on Instagram @bagladies. I do of course take into account the event itself and what's appropriate but my mood moreso than anything, dictates what I wear. I'm not scatterbrain when it comes to fashion choices. I don't like the whole running to the mall in haste. I shop proactively, not as needed. Blame it on the "shopaholic" in me. I LOVE to shop. There I said it! And I like to have options right in my own closet so be it casual or formal, I want options. And should I feel the need to be inspired, I visit my #PassionForFashion board on Pinterest. I pin great ideas for how to switch up a look I've tried and of course a ton of new looks never before worn.
So leading up to last Thursday I was particularly busy so by time Thursday got here, I knew I needed easy and effortless. Anytime you actually play a role in an event, it's easy to become frazzled because you are accountable and being stressed over what to wear only adds to that anxiety. I wasn't feeling too terribly tame so I wanted color and I wanted to stand out even moreso because I would be front and center addressing the audience. But I also wanted to be casual (not overstated), chic (on trend), and cute (no explanation necessary).
In the moment, I didn't realize I pulled it off so well but the outpouring of compliments and inquiries both at the event and following the event even still as to where I got this jumpsuit, made it clear. I would not have even considered dedicating a post to a jumpsuit otherwise but I'm not one to withhold purchases. What do you think?

| I could totally live entirely in jumpsuits. Did you know that about me? |
 |
| And this HM patterned jumpsuit had a nicely belted waist so I could snatch it in! But it also had the nerve to have pockets too. SCORE! |
 |
| I paired the look with my latest Rocksbox pieces including these Pave' Lightning Bolt Studs. I'm such a stud lover. |

The Rocksbox Mattie Pave ring and Kendra Scott necklace further accessorized. And my JoveeCo polish was super glam in "Male Model."

| I was feeling gaudy on this night so I didn't go with the Kendra Scott piece and instead opted to throwback my neckwear to a Traci Lynn piece. The event did take place on a Thursday after all. |
So after serious research, I was unable to find this same HM patterned jumpsuit which was such an on the whim purchase back in August. I was literally just browsing looking for pieces for my girls and I happened upon this jumpsuit for just $39.99 and I immediately loved the print. And for the first time in a minute, I fit into a size 4!! Follow me on Instagram, and see how much I run. It's paid off.
But be not dismayed, I did find a couple options while not the same print, in like styles and they're available online so you don't even have to leave the comfort of your home to shop em'.

| Not the same print but it's a print nonetheless. Click HERE. It's $49.99. |
 |
| While solid black, the style is exactly the same as mine which I love. The neck wasn't too deep and being as though I'm barely 5'l, sometimes the crotch hanging low can be an issue. Not with this one. Click HERE. It's $59.99. |
 |
This glittery jumpsuit is simply because I like jumpsuits. Now I have my eye on this one. Click HERE. It's the cheapest one out of the bunch at $34.99.
