I remember when I was little my mom used to wear these fancy one-piece jumpsuits and I would look at her and say, “What is that?” I am having a foot-in-mouth moment because jumpsuits are making a total comeback. They are even flattering, especially for petite girls like me because they elongate your legs and torso.

The craze about British royalty has undoubtedly gotten our attention over the past year. From Kate & William’s wedding to Adele, us Americans are Brit crazy. The sophisticated fashion that the royal family has maintained throughout the years will always be an admired fashion icon. To earn respect as a tailored, educated, poised woman, one must look the part.
