Wearing overalls – a great option for demanding women

Overalls are almost a self-sufficient piece of clothing. Just add a handbag and footwear and you have a ready-made outfit. The basis for choosing accessories, as well as cut and color of creation, is the nature of the occasion. If you are going out to the city, you can successfully match a short women’s suit with espadrilles, braided bag, e.g. basket type, and a hat. However, it is worth remembering that for some it is not a good outfit for work or for a party. If you want to be adventurous, why not try it out on these occasions?

Comfy blue denim is a fun way to start an outfit. Style those classic overalls with a pair of sneakers and a simple tee under if there are straps at the top of your pair of overalls.

Since a distressed look means textured fabric, match it with plain accessories. Torn denim has always been fashionable but remember, when styling this pair, “less is more.”

Utility overalls

Going to the roots of the trend and taking a pair from a garage paired with trainers will give you a relaxed look. None of those in your favorite shop? Try second hand instead! If the overalls are with straps, throw a loose jumper or warm turtleneck under the pair for chillier days. You may also try some other type of footwear such as high heels for an original look.

Style those with a button down or a comfy sweater adding extra warmth and this outfit will make your day! Pair them with a T-shirt and wear a cardigan for different days.

Wear overalls in the summer!

We’re sure you’ll agree with us that a jumpsuit is the perfect outfit for summer. White overalls will reflect sun rays but all colors will work here. Airy and ultra-comfortable at the same time. The model with shorts and shoulder straps (shorteralls) is a must-have option for hot days. Go for bold color combinations with overall shorts to get that summer energy going or choose, also chic, white denim. Match the tropical print jumpsuit with a handy clutch bag and orange flip-flops and go out with your friends!

Women’s jumpsuit for work

The business overalls with a fine line are the perfect outfit for the office. To keep the seriousness and elegance, opt for a solid model with long legs. A versatile option is a black suit, which you can easily combine with fancy accessories, such as white stilettos or a jewelry belt. Dark blue or classic white suits are also suitable.

Women’s jumpsuit for wedding

More and more women discover that a jumpsuit is the perfect alternative to an elegant dress. Combined with the right accessories, it can be worn to a wedding! To look natural and feminine at the same time, opt for pastels or bold red. Match it with stilettos or low-heeled pumps, and you’ll surely look great and comfortable.

It should be subdued and have an evening cut. Even if the ceremony is in summer and you are tempted to wear a jumpsuit with wide legs, you will not be hot in it. Why? Because wide-legged suits are breathable, allow air to circulate freely, and have the added benefit of protecting you from overly aggressive air conditioning blasts.

What kind of jumpsuit to choose?

Many questions arise as to combining an overall outfit. Read on to get inspired!

If you’re going on a date, choose a model in a bold color (e.g. fuchsia) that reveals your shoulders or calves. You will look sensual and leave room for imagination. Don’t forget to put a pair in your suitcase when you pack your clothes for holidays. For trips, it is an especially practical garment as it takes up little space in your luggage. For summer suits, pay attention to the fabric composition: natural linen and viscose are the best. Avoid polyester, leather, and acrylic, which are synthetic fabrics and leave your skin “breathless”.

What to wear with overalls?

Overalls are a combination of pants and blouse, creating an almost complete style, which gives you room to choose accessories and shoes.

Many models nicely expose the waist, so it is advisable to get a suit with a belt or buy a belt separately. If you want to slim your silhouette optically, wear the belt slightly above your waist. This simple trick makes your legs look longer.

What about your bag and shoes? Match elegant cuts with a classic clutch bag and heeled shoes. On the other hand, a summer suit with a short leg goes well with a braided bag and flat sandals or flip-flops.

How to style a strapless jumpsuit?

Do you have a stylish strapless jumpsuit in your closet, but the dress code at work doesn’t allow you to have your shoulders uncovered? No problem! Wear it with a blazer, preferably one with a low waist, for a classic look. If your suit is a solid color, break up the formal outfit by choosing a plaid jacket. You will still look professional but not boring.

For a casual outfit, you can wear almost anything over the top of the suit: a frock coat or a jacket. If you have dungarees and you like the youthful look, take advantage of the “back to the 90s” trend and instead of putting on an outer garment over the suit, wear something else underneath. This could be a striped or checked blouse, for example. Remember that vertical stripes work better with any body type.

How about an overall dress?

The summer variation on the theme of overalls is a model with a mini skirt. At first glance it looks like a dress, but under the skirt part there are shorts sewn in. Thanks to this clever solution you can expose your legs without worrying that someone will see too much. The overall dress looks great with stilettos or sandals, and you can wear cowboy boots on rainy days when you want to go wild.

Overalls are a really ingenious invention. When you buy one piece of clothing, you actually get two: a top and a bottom. You save not only money, but also time, because you don’t waste it on matching a shirt to pants or vice versa. Dressed in you will rock at summer parties or other occasions.
