I realize that rompers, daisy-duke ones at that, are not for everyone. But, if you're blessed with long gams then you should definitely jump into this Vintage Teal Stripe Romper, size S/M. It's even in Fab's color! The belt shown is not included, but surely you have one like it.

The current bidding price is at $10.50 and the auction ends on Thursday, May 1. Good luck and happy bidding!

Spring Peek: 21 Jumpstreet

FabSugar — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 13:00:22 -0800

Jumper. Romper. Onesie. Overalls. All routes go to 21 Jumpstreet. Some may be wary, some may be giddy for this trend that surfaced last Spring, but is in full effect now. Whether you choose to wear one in a more-relaxed fashion or go glam, it's a fashion risk I encourage you to take. Trendy? Maybe. But who can deny the timeless allure of a denim jumpsuit? So '70s, so chic, so fun!

FabSugar — Mon, 24 Sep 2007 08:00:22 -0700

KateCoquette is definitely ready for Fall in her jumper joy outfit. The white collared shirt is a creative way to get some coverage if you don't want to go the turtleneck route. And I love the way those boots add depth to the look.

Here's what she's wearing:

Dress: Express
Shoes: Vintage from mom's collection
Bracelet: Macy's

Congrats to KateCoquette!

What I like more are their unique clothes, like this Cacharel Purple Chemise, on sale for $145 (originally $290). It's not your average jumper because it has a drop waist and it's bright purple! What a perfect way to spice up your Summer gear.

Sarah Michelle Gellar at Harrods Sale Event: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Jul 2007 09:56:04 -0700

Sarah Michelle Gellar showed up at the launch of Harrods' Summer sale in London portraying two swiftly different looks. In her Marni asymmetrical off-white coat she looks sharp and timeless. Underneath it, her satin taupe jumpsuit oozes youthfulness and trendiness. I am always a fan of the adorable SMG, but do you love it or hate it?

Trend Alert: Onesies!

FabSugar — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 08:45:44 -0700

The youthful all-encompassing onesie has certainly seen mixed emotions. I for one feel they are very beach-appropriate; the cute onesie is so easy to slip on and off and has a fun flair. On the streets they are more of a fashion risk. But, when worn with the right (minimal) accessories and a cool attitude, per Nicole Richie, they can look totally chic. Lastly, I would keep the look toned down and casual, like the ones here, and make sure your bod is in tip-top shape. As for those still on the fashion fence: you never know until you try!

The Look For Less: Seven Denim Pin Up Jumper

FabSugar — Tue, 15 May 2007 07:03:33 -0700

This Seven Jeans Sweetheart Romper, $185, is a sassy little number. This would be really cute on the 4th of July or at a poolside party - but yes, you need to have subtle curves to pull this off. However, it is rather pin up girlie style, so I think it would look darling on a gal with womanly curves. All you need to top off the look is some lip gloss and wood-heeled wedges and you're ready to boogie. If that's too Three's Company for you, try a pair of fruit stripe flats!

If you are going to embark on a more risque look like a jumper, you may want to refrain from splurging. Try this Arden B Denim Halter Romper, $98, instead. I know it's not that much cheaper but it's damn similar. It doesn't have belt loops, but it is the same dark denim color. As for the cuffs, you want to show off your stems anyway right?

Look of the Day: A Jumper That Works for Work

FabSugar — Thu, 09 Nov 2006 13:57:27 -0800

Just because jumpers are very trendy and a little bit girly doesn't mean they don't work as office attire. Kimbtatter proves that here, making her up-to-the-minute, pulled together ensemble today's TeamSugar Look Book Look of the Day. I love the way she balances the outfit's proportions with her high, cinched belt and the unusual sleeve length of her dress shirt. (To learn how to upload your own looks, click here.) Here's what she's wearing.

Jumper: Forever 21
Top: Rampage Blouse (from Macy's)
Belt: Sway
Leggings: American Apparel
Shoes: Rocket Dog Ballet Flats

Johnson Doty Jumper: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Wed, 27 Sep 2006 08:14:59 -0700

Now that you all know how I feel about winter shorts, tell me how you feel about this Johnson Doty Jumper, available here for $154. Another way to wear short pants in cold weather, this cozy, fleece unitard is a variation on this season's jumper dresses, with patch pockets, charming vintage-style buttons, and cuffed legs. You could wear it around the house, or wear it with tights and a long coat for going out. So, do you love it or hate it? Tell me what you think.

Button Baby Doll Jumpers

FabSugar — Wed, 13 Sep 2006 23:22:32 -0700

I can't believe it myself, but it's true: Jumpers are in style for Fall and Winter 2006. On the one hand, they are a great match with the new leggings trend, and they are conducive to layering, which is very in right now. But while baby doll-style jumpers look super cute on Ashlee Simpson, I felt a little bit like a schoolgirl when I tried one on. If you decide to go for it, here are my top three choices for baby-doll jumpers.

This Ivy Babydoll Jumper has wide straps, large, pearly buttons, and a pair of pockets on the front. Buy it in gray, brown, and navy here for $285.

Two more, so read more

The LaRok Jumper is made of a thick jersey fabric with three wooden buttons down the chest, plus cute little patch pockets and adjustable straps. Buy it here for $228.

This Chace Chemise Jumper Dress is super cute too; I especially love the three-button closure and detail on the bottom. You can buy it here for $189.
