You guys, if you don’t already have a LBJ (little black jumpsuit) in your life you need one pronto! Think of the LBJ as the LBD’s cooler and more spontaneous little sister. It’s basically the best piece you will ever own in your closet for several reasons, but here are the 3 best reasons to grab one now!
3 Reasons to Ditch the LBD for A LBJ:
1. They are so dang flattering!
You’re probably thinking “Yeah and LBD’S are extremely flattering too!“. And I would totally agree except for one reason and one reason only. What LBD can be flowy, cosy like pj’s and flattering at the same time. None. Period. Now, not all LBJ’S are going to hit each of those points. BUT, wide leg jumpsuits are all the rage right now. So chances are you’re gonna be able to find a jumpsuit that is amazingly flattering and perfect for dancing, moving in general, and most importantly eating! No sucking in required.
2. They are a dime a dozen but yet nobody has them!
This point is pretty awesome. Basically, every major retailer is carrying multiple styles of the LBJ, yet, not many people are rocking them! Because of this, guaranteed the LBJ you score will have major heads turning no matter where you wear it! Plus, I love love love having endless options for one particular style while shopping online. So to me, that’s a win win in itself!
3. Because, girl, they won’t break the bank!
K, who other than me loves to save a pretty penny on fabulous pieces? Cause I know I’m not the only one! I bought this LBJ from Marshalls for a whopping $29.99 (such a score)! It was the last one, for good reason, and has been on my “must have” list for Summer. I also eyed out a few other style LBJ’s at Marshalls as well and they were all way under $50, heck yeah!
Are you a fan of the LBJ or the LBD? Tell me below!

Thanks to Marshalls for collaborating with me on this post!
You look so stunning in this. I agree on most parts, but you need to consider women with longer bodies. I can’t wear jumpsuits with out the worst camel toe known to man. So you look great, but I will stick to my dresses. hahhaha
Thanks girl! And so many retailers, like Missguided, offer clothes that fit taller women perfectly! It’s all about finding the perfect fit 🙂
I’ve been looking everywhere for a little black jumpsuit. This one is amazing!!
Great reasons to switch! I love the jumpsuit look better than the dress!
Jumpsuits are the best because you can stay comfy while looking chic! Plus, with the humid weather where I live, light and airy fabrics are a must! 🙂
I def agree, I love that jumpsuits feel like pajamas without looking like pajamas!! You look great
I haven’t tried a jumpsuit yet, but I always think they look so cute on everyone! I love this one!
This jumpsuit is SO great on yoU! I wish I could pull them off #shortgirlproblems <3

Love this look! It’s flattering and sexy on everyone and so very versatile. I agree with your sentiments exactly!
This is super flattering and I love it on you! I just worry sometimes that I am too short to rock jumpsuits…but maybe I just need to give it a try!
Yes, yes, and yes! Love this chic romper…you look amazing, girl.

They are super flattering if you’re taller! I’m super petite, only 4’11”, so I can only rock rompers! Jumpsuits make me look even shorter. 🙁
Beautiful look! Love your jumpsuit!
