Jumpsuits

I'm looking forward to spring, especially the warm weather. And jumpsuits (or rompers) are totally going to be in, again. They have been in and out of style so often, but now they're all over the runways and on celebrities like Lady Gaga (above). Long, short, loose or formfitting, they come in many styles that can look good on anyone.

I love this couture Bebe jumpsuit. And the more understated version:

Jean jumpsuits are very sexy, and great for spring.

Capris, another spring trend:

Shorts and long sleeves and a belted waist: a stylish, versatile look.

Turtleneck sweaters.

Another staple in a cold winter. For example this lovely grey rib knit cashmere Vince sweater:

Its stylish, warm and sexy. I have a wool knit light purple one, scratchy but warm.

Here's another by Hayden, I love the color:

And have I mentioned how fantastic cashmere is? Its the softest material, very warm at its thinnest and extremely warm thick.

Now this post is about turtlenecks, but I have found recently that the definition of turtleneck is very loose right now. From the tight, folded over neck featured in the 2 photos above, to the floppy, loose, zippered, short, anything that goes above the neck comes up in searches.
Here is another Hayden chunky knit cashmere sweater:

Not exactly a turtleneck, but still pretty, and still functional.

My boyfriend wanted a turtleneck for christmas. He actually wanted one last year, but I couldn't find a single one (perhaps because I was shopping while on vacation in Florida... hmmm...). I had similar difficulties finding one here in Ottawa too (and this city is cold, we need it!!!) I went to all the mens stores in 3 malls: nothing. What made it even more difficult was that I needed a slimfit AND tall size. The only thing that came close was a mock neck, which seems to be very popular this year. Like the one below:

Looks nothing like a turtleneck, right? And its not just plain mock necks, every one i came across was zippered. Very sporty, but too casual. Not what I was looking for.

I found some really nice designer ones online, like this Prada wool turtleneck:

I love it, but green is not his color. Also it's wool, not as nice as cashmere:

This one is very sexy, classic and so very nice to snuggle up against.
