Initially when this trend came out, I thought it was so weird. I couldn’t possibly imagine wearing something that snapped under my crotch like a literal baby onesie. No way. BUT, as the trend has raged on (really over a year now), I finally decided to give it ago and figure out what all the hype was about.
Surprisingly, once I found a style I liked, it was pretty easy to understand why so many women were supporting the style.
Here’s my take:
- They are typically super easy layering pieces that can be transitioned between a lot of items in your closet. I need pieces that are multi-functional and these surprisingly can be worn in many different ways
- You don’t have to worry about tucking anything in. Because they are tight, you don’t have to worry about shirts that are coming out of your pants or a skirt where you want a form and fitted look, but the stupid shirt won’t stay down.
- Your sizing will vary depending upon where you are ordering it from. I have two and in one I am an extra small and in the other I am a medium. I would recommend trying them in-store, or being prepared to return if sizing doesn’t work. I feel this is majorly due to the fact that every women’s torso is a little different.
- You feel sexy. I thought that wearing it would make me feel awkward and frumpy, so I was surprised to find that I was actually fairly comfortably in it and also felt beautiful and confident.
As mentioned before, the great thing about this piece is that it is super easy to style. I think the key is find one you like and that works well with your body and lifestyle. For me, I opted for a black, long sleeve one. I felt like this would be super transitional, easy to wear throughout most of the year, and give me a good feel for whether or not I would like it. Once I realized just how easy it was to style, I have worn it tons of different ways since.
Below you can see how I styled it in this photo:
Bodysuit // Jeans // Booties // Jacket
I literally just threw on a jacket, pair of jeans, and some booties. Super simple.
Here are some other ideas though:
+Cut off shorts and a pair of flats
+A long flowy skirt with some pretty heels for a night out
+Sweatpants and uggs for cruising around town and running errands
+Jeans and a sweater and over the knee booties
+ Dress pants and a cardigan for heading to work
+Pencil skirt, gold earrings, and some gorgeous heels for date night
I hope this helps and below I have linked some that are my total faves and I think would be great options!
