Jumpers are instant style for posh chic work outfits

In this OOTD, I wore my navy blue poplin jumper dress over a gingham shirt for a work appropriate look. I like jumpers or sheath as they are also called as they provide immediate polish. One can wear them alone or match them with many items like a T-shirts or shirt underneath.

Jumpers/sheaths can double as skirts

They also look great with a cardigan, denim or leather jacket on top for an American Classic look or as skirt with a sweater worn over the jumper. They can go from casual to work outfit and dinner when you style them with different items and accessories.

Wear your accessories and clothes in a different way

Here I used my brooches instead of a belt and accessorized with my wood sport watch, and an Alaska charm bracelet.

Do you like jumpers? How do you style them? Link up examples at the party below in addition to your OOTD posts or send me an email. I am curious.
