MummaB - Style Steal.

Hi there, are you ready for another Style Steal?
I really hope you've been tuning into my monthly over fifty Style Steal, there's some great bloggers out there and I'm only too pleased to share them with you - maybe giving you some inspiration of styles you can duplicate.
You can view the past months offerings here:
October featuring Nancy,
September featuring Emma,
August featuring Rachel
July featuring Catherine.

Then let's wait no longer, here's November's number.

As soon as I saw this outfit I knew it was my sort of thing.  I really wanted to find something similar, so set about finding my 'steal'.   Only having two of the items in my wardrobe I had to search for the main attraction and search I did.  It didn't take me long to find a near copy of this Target jumpsuit.





I saw the lovely Jonet from Fabulously chic Over 50 wearing this super slinky jumpsuit, the icing on the cake it's crushed velvet!   I've wanted something velvet in my collection for ages - now finally i've got not only one gorgeous outfit, but a versatile one too!
How fabulous is this outfit?  Jonet looks so graceful and elegant wearing this burgundy jumpsuit - ready for anything I'm thinking.



Crushed velvet is so luxurious, it's Soft to touch with a graceful drape. Burgundy is such a fun colour for Christmas too, so this will get plenty of use over the festive period.  I can also see it with over a tee shirt to give the outfit a more casual feel.






Jumpsuits have so been my 'thing' this year, they're just so comfortable to wear, and never been an issue for me regarding the going-to-the-toilet issues!! You can pop over to check out my previous choices of  Orange trouser jumpsuit, Palm print culottes jumpsuit, Snakeskin print jumpsuit and finally Wide leg palazzo leg jumpsuit.



This one is from F & F for only £22.  It's the perfect length for me, just under my knee.  It'll look cute with chunky boots as I'm wearing or with strappy stilettos.  The leather look jacket is a year old and I'm needing wanting it replaced for Christmas.  I'm dropping plenty of hints to my girls so they can let hubby know what he can buy me!


Glad you could stop over today - many thanks. X

Photos taken by Emily - appreciate the early morning shoot as there was no time at the weekend -        many thanks Hun. 💋

See you again on Thursday - bye for now. X

  1. Oh that's a beautiful jumpsuit! I agree, burgundy is great for cooler weather, it pairs so nicely with neutral black and grey layers! Glad you could find a similar piece of your own to recreate the look that inspired you! :)

    Hope you had a great weekend :) Was cold and wet here, a bit unexpected after our warm week!

  3. I am soooo glad there's a lot of velvet out there this season. And your burgundy jumpsuit is perfect for the holidays. It looks like a style that's easy to dress up or down. Love they way it looks paired with the leather jacket, boots and sparkly necklace.

  6. I love crushed velvet too – it's such a luxurious fabric and always looks good, doesn't it? The colour of this jumpsuit is absolutely perfect too, like it was made just for you, Jacqui! Although you do look cold!!

    1. It really is very luxurious and perfect for Christmas, but you've hit the nail on the head I was freezing! Got a telling off from my daughter because I looked too pale, which makes me look very cold. Off to Abu Dhabi on Thursday so hopefully will return with some colour! (Probably red!!!) Lol xx

  9. I'm loving all the velvet that's in the shops at the moment. It's a great alternative to sequins. And the colour is gorgeous on you. I love burgundy for evenings as opposed to black. You've got a great jumpsuit there.

  10. Velvet has to be one of my favourite fabrics Jacqui and crushed is all the better -
    you look fabulous! This is a great buy for this time of year and you'll surely get lots of wear out of it with the party season ahead.

    Have a great week!

  13. OMG, I absolutely love this on you! It's the perfect piece for the holiday season but really you can wear it out to dinner, fall/winter wedding events, and even in the summer evenings without a jacket and just some strappy heels.
