our regulars know that we don’t shy away from fashion controversy over here on the blog. earlier this year, we talked about the three most controversial fashion items for summer and five fashion rules every women should break. we’re all about defying expectations over here at style at a certain age, and today’s no different: we’re featuring a jumpsuit for fall—one of the more divisive autumn items out there. whether your love them or hate them, jumpsuits are statement pieces, and just a heck of a lot of fun to wear. sometimes it’s good to be bold, right ladies?
we’re featuring a chambray jumpsuit from J.Crew today. i’ve paired it with a pair of strappy heels, but i’ve also sourced a pair of slingbacks that would work just as well. we featured a similar jumpsuit last fall—paired with a blazer—which just goes to show you there are a lot of ways to accessorize a jumpsuit. although temperatures are probably too warm where you are to do so, just remember you can wear a jumpsuit well into the autumn months.

we’re advocates here for breaking out of our fashion comfort zone. for some of you, a chambray jumpsuit may be old hat: nothing to see here. for others, you may have wanted to try one but still haven’t. fashion is a low stakes way to get out of our comfort zone and embrace something new. be bold this fall!

This jumpsuit is adorable and you look great in it!
I love this jumpsuit! You look fantastic in it, Beth; but you look great in everything! You are stunning. Love your blog.
Love your posts, could you please show the back of your outfits ?
You look so chic! I also think the backdrop wall is exceptionally cute!
So, how does a short woman wear jumpsuits? And any particularly flattering brands?
Hi Beth, I have always been a big fan of jumpsuits and have many to show for. The jumpsuit looks fantastic on on you. I must say my love for fashion has grown even stronger since following you. Especially since I’m over my fifties, taking better care of yourself and feeling confident in what you wear are very essential. Thank you!!
Stay and healthy!!
Your back in your game Beth! So sassy sporting that haircut which is super cute on you! You look amazing! Love the jumpsuit of which I own 4 now. Your shoes are spot on but I wish the heel was only a 2” or 2 1/2”.
Blessings
Love those snazzy sunshades with your outfit Beth!
Hi Beth, I love jumpsuits, I have three of them and they are so comfortable to wear plus you can keep them casual or dress them up. Lovely colour on you xoxo Julie from England
What a cute and fun piece! Love. love your sunglasses. Where are they from?
You present a fabulous look….what about us shorties out here … any advice for those of us 5’3 who want to be “in the flow” but not drowning???
Keep it coming, Beth! Today’s jumpsuit is so cute with you in it. Can no longer wear heels due to leg vein issue, but love seeing them on you! Stay on track encouraging ladies to look their best, whether at home or on the go, especially now. Am noting too many ladies appear to have given way to not looking as they used to before COVID. Takes work to look your best but others will notice and perhaps be inspired to do likewise. We all need the Beth boost! Hugs and blessings~
Really flattering on you – love it!
Love, Love, Love this Jumpsuit on you. So Cute.
That jumpsuit is so cute and looks great on you. The only reason I don’t wear jumpsuits is because I drink at least 4 liters of water daily to stay hydrated in the summer so you know what that means. Also, I never know what to do to keep all the fabric off the floor in those public restrooms!
You look fabulous Beth ! Way to rock a jump suit! I love the color too.
Love this look! You look gorgeous! Those strappy high heels make the outfit. Thanks for inspiring us to get out of our joggers into stylish clothes!
Does the denim jumpsuit have a little stretch to it?
You look absolutely darling in this outfit! I’m curious how your knee feels with heels.
I really enjoy your blog and read each one as soon as it comes in. I would be interested in seeing how you would use different accessories to change the look of the item/items you are suggesting rather than simply different poses. Accessory options from your creative input would be sooo valuable for me! 🙂
Your sense of whimsy really shows in this post, Beth! The shoes…oh, my!! Jumpsuit becomes three season with switch of accessories. Glad you’re having fun nudging us into more-creative looks.
Glad you went back to your short haircut.
It’s sexy, sassy and elegant. I have been on the fence with jumpsuits, but this looked so good on you I decided to order it! What is the brand of sunglasses? I want a pair!!
Hi Beth, you look fabulous! Love the photos in front of the mural especially! The handbag too looks gorgeous- appreciated the closeup. Thanks for all the hard work that goes into your posts!
Love the outfit.
But what happens like Kelly says, when one needs to… well, you know! At a certain age, there’s not really copious time for thinking about it. 😉
Also, love the sunglasses. Any purchase link?
Super cute! You look so great in jumpsuits. You did a post in the past where you wore a black jumpsuit that was also really cute.
Great sandals with this! I love it. I’m personally a jumpsuit fan. You look good in this one. So simple and classic.
What type of red lipstick do you use.
It looks nice.
Thank you
the lipstick in this post is Christian Dior Darling.
I loved this jumpsuit and ordered it.
Unfortunately, had to send it back. The zipper in the back was a “deal breaker.”
Very awkward. Need a second person to help!
