I’ve been in this industry a long time (over 10 years—can you believe it??!) and it’s not every day that I stumble across a bodysuit that suddenly TAKES OVER MY WARDROBE. (Yes, this bodysuit has had THAT big of an effect.) This is how it happened…
One day I was scrolling on Instagram and saw a new post from Eleni (@stylethesemoments), who is an old friend of mine, a mom and overall an exceptionally stylish person. If you don’t follow her, you ABSOLUTELY SHOULD. She influences my style all of the time. (Yes, even “influencers” get influenced, LOL.) In this post, she was talking about how much she LOVED this Amazon bodysuit. Now, I’ll admit, I was skeptical. Bodysuits can sometimes feel overly revealing and not feel the most flattering. But I decided to give it a try. After all, I’d been following Eleni for years and trusted her recommendation! So, away I went to my Amazon account and ordered this $75 CAD bodysuit in black.
Sure enough… when it arrived and I tried it on… I FELL IN LOVE. It’s a great sporty piece to wear to school drop-off, to yoga or just if you want to wear something comfy under a sweater. It’s also VERY contouring of the body. So, I don’t feel self-conscious at all while wearing it. In fact, I feel EXTRA confident! (Of course, if you eat a big lunch, it’s going to show, but I’ve always felt really comfortable and confident in it!)
I’ve been enjoying wearing this bodysuit SO much that Shay actually called me out for how much I was wearing it, LOL. I do laundry, people!! I’m allowed to outfit repeat!
It also comes in SO many colours… so naturally, I had to order it in purple and white (arriving at our home very soon—eek, I can’t wait!!!)
If you’re looking for tips on how to style it, allow Shay’s fabulous styling at our last photoshoot to give you some inspo:
For School Drop-Off
For a casual look, we paired the purple bodysuit with fuzzy Birkenstocks, an oversized knit sweater and a crossbody bag—mine is from Ela Handbags! *Use code JILLIAN20 for 20% off your purchase at Ela Handbags!! And, of course, I’m always carrying around my Stanley Tumbler, so naturally, that had to be included in the shot!
To Yoga
When heading to my favourite workout—hot yoga, of course!—I throw this Sunday sweater over my bodysuit, throw my hair in a bun and add my favourite pink-checkered Vans for a stylish, sporty look.
Well, what do you think? Would you give this bodysuit a try? What colour most appeals to you? For even more ideas on how to style this bodysuit, check out my latest reel @Jillian.Harris on Instagram.
