I’m about to be real with you guys. Now don’t judge me but this ruffle bodysuit makes me feel girly and glamorous in all the right ways! Girly or feminine are not words I would use to describe myself. I was very much a tomboy growing up, just ask my mother. She can tell you plenty of horror stories of trying to get me to dress like girl. She never got to enjoy any of those cute moments with me. Fast forward to her seeing me in this outfit and there’s a big smile on her face.
I’m a big fan of bodysuits and I’m so glad this 90’s trend is back. I just wish I had kept mine because I had some really cute ones. Anyhow, back to bodysuits – I love how they give you a streamlined silhouette. And you can wear them with just about anything and always have the perfect tuck. This ruffle bodysuit is a statement in itself so I decided to keep the rest of my look pretty simple with this pencil skirt. And then I added my red clutch for a splash of colour.
Why you need a bodysuit:
- The fit is flattering
- They’re perfect for high waisted shorts or denim, pants and pencil skirts
- Endless layering possibilities
- So many style options- from turtle neck to scoop neck, plunging necklines, lace, lace-up, cut-outs, off the shoulder, etc..
- They’re just so cool

Side note – If we’re all being honest, aren’t bodysuits just the grown-up version of the onesie? Just saying. Not judging! lol 🙂

This is beautiful Jackie.
I totally understand why mum smiled when she saw you in this
And I agree, body suit is the glorified version of Onesie ☺☺
Take care Jackie.

What a beautiful outfit Jackie. The bodysuits should really be an essential part of our wardrobe. Ps. Thanks for sharing your childhood tommboy story. I’m sure it will motivate many girls and mothers
This looks amazing on you! The bodysuit is so flattering and fits you perfectly. I keep wanting to try one, but I am tall and think I need to find one to try on in store.

Wow, that bodysuit is amazing. I really need to invest in one as I hate tucking my tops in. The line is never clean.

Now, I know I said this on Instagram, but I must reiterate and say it again, you look AMAZING, girl! Seriously, you look stunning! I love the way you did your hair to allow for the ruffle OTS detail on the body suit to come forth, which looks great paired with the skirt, creating the illusion of a dress. I agree with all the reasons why you suggest wearing a body suit, they really are versatile and so easy to style. Haha, you know, I went through a really long stage of being a tomboy myself. My mom told me that both her and my god-mother would always buy me beautiful earrings and I would yank them off and through them away, lol! Or, they’d get me dresses and I’d refuse to wear them. It’s funny how things change when you get older, isn’t it?! Of course you know my fingers are crossed that Baby A won’t follow my footsteps as a kid and allow me to dress her in all the girly things for my own sake, haha. Thanks for sharing, beauty, and I hope you’re having a great start to your week so far!
