Having advocated jumpsuits and playsuits for years I am firmly in camp 'pro one piece'; this utilitarian boilersuit though takes the 'all in one' to a whole other level…

*Update! I have duly been informed that Kate Moss wore this jumpsuit to the Topshop Unique show yesterday. This news makes me very very happy indeed!*

 I remember when I was at college there were two boys in the art department who would wear paint spattered boilersuits all the time, and totally, whole heartedly work them. I remember thinking at the time, how can this be? They look cute, and they're in boilersuits? Hey, how times have changed. Topshop clearly saw the potential and leapt on the trend before I could get my head around it. This hawaiian print number looks way more camo from afar than it does up close. I can't wait to see how it can work for later in the season, I have a feeling it'll take on a new lease of life with tanned limbs, higher cuffs and gladiator sandals. 

Read on for notes on styling up a boilersuit, and options to buy…

Notes On Styling: this is no easy feat. A boilersuit is a tricksy little number, and as mentioned above, I feel will probably show its true worth come Summer. Cuffed ankles and high heels elevate it for evening, but equally polished ankle boots and a cropped jacket would make it day appropriate.

A Word On Sizing: I bought one size up - not a good idea. I ended up tucking, pinning and fidgeting all day to try and get the boilersuit to sit how I wanted. This wardrobe babe is best worked close to the skin or baggy 'on purpose'. This evening version is hot and will make the transition into boilersuiting simple and sassy. 
Here are some of my favourite boilersuits and utilitarian jumpsuits available now...

OK so where are you guys weighing in on the boilersuit debate? Will you be giving this trend a whirl? Do you love one pieces or do you prefer your looks separate? 

Let me know!

Have a super day all!
