Alot of people think of the jumpsuit as being an adult "onesie"!

However, I happen to think you would look very cute in a mid-thigh short romper with some of those cute sandals you own. I can't wait to see what you decide, I know you're going to look great in it. <br /><br />By the way...you know me, I'd wear either, short on capri!Myrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04359520837946001668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-76809359362690145732011-06-09T16:18:02.803-07:002011-06-09T16:18:02.803-07:00I remember the jumpsuit my mom made me in 1985 and...I remember the jumpsuit my mom made me in 1985 and it was quite stylish, looked great, and was a total PITA at potty time. I'm personally of the opinion that these garments only belong on the diaper set. However, I'm not unopposed to the idea of creating the same look in two pieces - esp. with a belt completing the look.Sandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04890008405738438915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-33471982426730392652011-06-08T08:27:20.504-07:002011-06-08T08:27:20.504-07:00Have you seen V1249, KS3229, S2401, Burda 7536 and...Have you seen V1249, KS3229, S2401, Burda 7536 and S2476?NuJoihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14082462241210413826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-78663034373298426922011-06-07T14:37:49.850-07:002011-06-07T14:37:49.850-07:00Vogue has a really nice pattern and i would love t...Vogue has a really nice pattern and i would love to wear/make it but I am 4'11'' and curvy. i don't think it will translate into stylish for me.

I shortened the leg and put elastic on the cuff too! The leg wasn't too wide at all. I am short torsoed and long legged at 5'6, 31in inseam and I thought it looked fine. I had to make mods to the pattern for the fit I needed. I would make a practice garment to see how you feel in it. I think the shorts version would be cute on you too.<br /><br />here's my review link: <a href="http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/readreview.pl?readreview=1&reviewnum=51860" rel="nofollow">http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/readreview.pl?readreview=1&reviewnum=51860</a>narcissaqtpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05212462596426688434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-19016162432027123432011-06-06T10:38:04.710-07:002011-06-06T10:38:04.710-07:00Hi, just wanted to say that I made that exact one ...Hi, just wanted to say that I made that exact one you are smitten with and I am only 5'6" and could not wear it due to the torso not being long enough.

Besides, I live in an area that isn't exactly fashion central (the local uniform seems to be worn out jeans and a bad printed tee), so unless I made one out of camouflage fabric, I would look ridiculously out of place.Juanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16300640647404729714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-70468113013796082122011-06-06T03:56:04.338-07:002011-06-06T03:56:04.338-07:00not a fan of either for me, but the one you mentio...not a fan of either for me, but the one you mentioned looks cute, especially if you're leggy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-4022326469268190042011-06-06T03:27:25.178-07:002011-06-06T03:27:25.178-07:00For a date night?

Two options. 1) you want to keep them on: a friend of mine came in a very cute pink one last week, and as we attempted to dance, spent the entire evening pulling it back up. 2) you don't: that's even worse.
