For those of you that just tuned in, From Grandma with Love is a monthly series that is one of my faves! (It used to be weekly, but I’m still trying to get back into the swing of things.) I’m lucky to be the recipient of my Grandmother-in-law’s beautiful wardrobe. She owned so many unique pieces, and I’ve had the MOST FABULOUS time styling it on the blog. It’s a win-win for me because I ADORE vintage and a fun excuse to wear it!

I was thrilled when my MIL gave me this black jumpsuit! There are so many ways to wear it, but I kept it simple for Summer. Gold accessories, like this chain belt and wrap sandals, are an easy pairing with black. It keeps the look fresh and chic and adds a touch of luxe.
THE STYLE Rx: A black jumpsuit is a definite wardrobe staple. It looks dressy when you put it on (and requires minimal effort… except when using the WC)! It will transition easily from Summer to Fall/Winter with the addition of a jacket or coat!
The jumpsuit would be so fun with a bomber jacket and booties in the Fall. Also, I plan on wearing it with a cropped fur jacket for a dressier look! Of course, you can always top it with a black moto jacket for an edgy winter look too!

P.S. Sorry I’ve been MIA lately. It’s been really busy with both children, and I’m trying to get the house organized. (I know – I’m always working on that!) But seriously, the influx of things since having a newborn has tipped me over the edge, and I need to purge LOTS! Hope everyone’s week is going well… It’s hump day!
P.P.S. Isn’t this the most FABULOUS wall EVER!!! It’s so fun! Angie and I shot there before but it was way TOO BRIGHT (and I styled the jumpsuit weird) so we did a redo! The wall mural is by Katie Murray, and she has been painting the town bright!!! I LOVE it!
That wall is a stunning background and it looks great with the black jumpsuit! I really like the gold accessories with the black too. The bathroom issue is why I can’t get on board with jumpsuits or playsuits, ha! Yours is lovely, it look so modern for a vintage piece.
Hope things settle down soon and you get into a bit of a routine – it’s a big task juggling two little ones but you can do it! :)
