Hi, everyone! Happy Tuesday! You don’t know how long it’s taken me to write this post… I’ve been having some major technical difficulties and it’s so irritating! Anyways, let’s hope I can get through this post without the computer shutting down or me throwing it across the room… haha! Before I start, what did you all think of The Bachelor Finale? I can’t believe that there are going to be two bachelorettes. I’m not quite sure how I feel about it just yet. I really am torn about Britt, but we’ll see!

Today is part one of a two-day series where I’m going to be dressing up, then dressing down this black jumpsuit from Maggy London. It’s so easy to dress up a jumpsuit and I love how effortless it is to do so. Since this black jumpsuit has a mesh neckline, I decided to go with statement earrings, rather than a statement necklace, and added in my favorite print ever – snakeskin! I recently bought these heels and thought they would bring a great pop of print to this ensemble and it just so happened that they went perfectly with my clutch. I think snakeskin is such a great print for going out at night or whenever you want to kick things up a notch.

You could definitely add a blazer in to make this look even more sophisticated, but I decided not to. If you wanted to, this one and this one are great options. Also, I’m dying for these statement earrings. They would look amazing with this jumpsuit!

Make sure to check out Maggy London for a great variety of cocktail, holiday and special event dresses. The new arrivals are amazing!

PS. fun fact… it took me more than 12 hours to finally get this post live… thanks technology!
