What I'm Loving Now: The Jumpsuit


I've been searching for a reasonably priced jumpsuit that doesn't look trashy or risque and surprisingly even though they are sprinkling the red-carpets they are few and far between in actual stores. While I'm not expecting J. Crew to bust out with a black catsuit, was sort of hoping someplace would have a moderately priced jumpsuit.


This isn't the first time I've wanted something that has been hard to find, I've been searching for years for a pair of sleek leather pants a la Gwyneth on Oprah years ago. And no, the jean style that was in at the Gap doesn't count. Anyway, it has made me realized the gap between what we see in the magazines, runways, and on our favorite stars and what we can find in stores is large. And the more a trend hits mass-retail the better chance we the consumers have of finding the trend that can fit our needs.

Now I'll admit that my love of the jumpsuit came back to me full-force after seeing Carrie at her engagement party with a fierce strapless black jumpsuit dripping in gold jewels and roaring belt, but it wasn't the first time. There is something so sexy and kick-ass about a jumpsuit, so Studio 54 meets Catwoman and I love it!

The Muse would be ever so grateful to someone that can help her obtain the long awaited jumpsuit or leather pants!!!
