How to Wear: body suit with shorts

This post may contain affiliate links. Purchasing through them helps support this website. This post may also contain items gifted for consideration.

Interested in the body suit with shorts trend? I was too. But realistically……I'm a 43 year old woman with a curvier, pear shaped body. I wasn't sure about this one. Until I tried it. Buckle up, cause….. a body suit with shorts might just be my new favorite athleisure wear item and I found some great options at all price points!

Body suit with shorts: outfit ideas and how to style

I have to be honest. This all started with the lululemon body suit with shorts. I saw content creator after content creator sharing how much they loved it online. But that price point? I just couldn't justify it if I wouldn't wear it. Was I REALLY going to run around in a head to toe spandex romper? Like what people wear in wrestling? You've thought it too right?

Enter Walmart. Yup, Walmart does it again. I noticed they had a cute new ribbed version of the body suit with shorts I'd been eyeing. And for under $40 (with free returns if I hated it)…..I decided it was worth a shot.

Looking for ways to style a body suit with shorts? These easy outfit ideas will get you started!

The bodysuit I got has a ribbed fabric and built in cups for support. With a size B cup, I had enough support to wear it without a bra (just for reference). I'm impressed. It's comfortable and it holds shape well for all day wear. I actually think it looks great on a curvier body. This particular body suit with shorts goes up to an XL, so not the greatest size range BUT I also tried and LOVE Old Navy's option which has a great size range from an XS to a 4X.

Now I get it. This is all very cute and trendy. But how are you supposed to ACTUALLY wear this spandex romper in real life? I have definitely worn the body suit on it's own with sneakers for a hike or walk, but I probably wouldn't wear it like that for day to day styling.

Body suit with shorts: fall outfit ideas

I look at my body suit with shorts as a base piece. What do I mean by that? I wear it as the initial layer for a full outfit.

A few of my favorite ways to style my body suit with shorts for cooler weather:

Flannel Vibes: The easiest and most casual outfit is probably also my favorite. I've been doing a flannel shacket and slip on sneakers with my body suit. It's comfy, it goes perfectly through the day and is great for school pick up and running errands.

These simple outfit ideas will help you to style a body suit with shorts for all kinds of occasions!

White Button Down: If I want something a little dressier? I love a white button down blouse(open of course) with taller socks and my white Nike Air Force Ones. For a little extra? I add some gold chunky necklaces and a belt bag.

Sporty: I love how comfortable this can be and I've been loving wearing my body suit to baseball games lately. Want a sportier vibe? Try styling your suit with an open jersey (I'm obsessed with the city connect ones from Nike), some platform converse and a great baseball hat. Bonus points for a stadium approved belt bag.

Comfy and Cozy: Want a soft and cozy look? You can go all the way and style your body suit with a soft long cardigan and clogs. It's comfortable, and such a good vibe. Literally, it feels like pajamas!

🎃unpopular opinion: You don’t have to do Oogi 🎃unpopular opinion: You don’t have to do Oogie Boogie Bash to have the perfect spooky season day at Disneyland⠀⠀🎃Now, here’s the thing: I love Oogie Boogie Bash.  But it sells out SO quickly every year.  And I promise, there is still a LOT of Halloween Time fun at Disneyland (yes even without an Oogie Boogie Bash ticket). I’ve been hopping around the parks with Undercover Tourist and we’ve had a TOTAL blast doing all the spooky things together.⠀⠀A few of my favorite Halloweenie things to do during a parks day (or night):⠀🖤visit the Halloween Tree (IYKYK)⠀🧡watch the Dapper Dans sing all their cutesiest spookiest songs⠀🖤check out the Dia de los Muertos area in Frontierland AND the performances in Paradise Guardians (check for the Mariachi Divas in the app….they’re AMAZING)⠀🧡try at least one new to me spooky treat (yup, that includes my seasonal cold brews and this year’s Minnie Bat Caramel Apple)⠀🖤do alllll the themed attractions, each of these does something special for Halloweentime: Luigi's Honkin' Haul-O-Ween, Monsters After Dark, Mater's Graveyard JamBOOree and…..our fav the Haunted Mansion ⠀🧡do Pumpkin Pursuit at Downtown Disney ⠀🖤the new Goofy’s Kitchen Halloween Dinner and Brunch (we loved the dinner over the weekend and I’m sharing the brunch in stories today!)⠀⠀🎃My friends at Undercover Tourist have some pretty awesome guides to Halloweentime on their site……they’re a great spooky season resource for info and a great deals on Disney tickets resource year round.  I know, I rave about them a lot but……who doesn’t love a Disney partner that gives you deals on trips to the Happiest Place on Earth for ANY holiday or season?⠀⠀#FrogHopDLR #Disneyland#DisneylandResort #Halloweentime @themeparkfrog @disneyland⠀⠀⠀

🚨 3 MISTAKES I MADE AT MY FIRST RUN DISNEY RACE 🚨 3 MISTAKES I MADE AT MY FIRST RUN DISNEY RACE 🚨⠀⠀🛑 Learn from my mistakes, 3 things you should NOT do if you’re running Disney races this year (trust me):⠀⠀1️⃣ Passing Go and Heading STRAIGHT to the parks: I realllllyyyyy wanted medal pictures.  In my running outfit.  So, instead of taking the buses straight from the finish line back to the hotel……we went to the Magic Kingdom.  Took photos.  Went to lunch.  And felt…..terrible by about 1 pm.  So take it from me, finish the race.  Go to the hotel.  Shower. Take a nap.  THEN go to the parks. ⠀2️⃣ Breakfast: ok, mistake number 2.  WHAT WE ATE.  We booked a very cute, very on theme lunch.  It was also very rich and creamy food.  And…..was NOT IT after a race.  Some of us may have gotten sick.  It might have been the food.  Or the lack of sleep.  But, breakfast food (waffles / eggs) would have been a MUCH better choice.  Now bonus points if you can guess where we ate.  Love it, but….not for the first meal after the race.⠀3️⃣ Park Tickets: I spent WAY too much.  I didn’t buy my park tickets in advance and paid full price.  On a race weekend, you’ll probably want tickets for race day and the day after if not two days after.  So….buy them NOW.  While you can get a deal. ⠀⠀🎟️ Which leads to……when I say buy those park tickets now, I mean it. Big News! Undercover Tourist is offering their best ticket deal at BOTH Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort…for a VERY limited time, get Adult Theme Park Tickets at Child Prices.  So whichever race you are running (or races in my case)……snag tickets NOW.  I’m grabbing mine for Wine and Dine and Princess weekend……..⠀🎟️ want a link to the deal? Comment TICKETS PLEASE and I’ll send it your way! ⠀👟 Are you running a Disney Race this year? Which one? ⠀⠀🥇 And if you’re an experienced Run Disney person….what tips do YOU have for first timers?⠀⠀@themeparkfrog @disneyland #FrogHopDLR #rundisney

Two good witches and one black cat…….kick off Two good witches and one black cat…….kick off another year of family halloween costumes.The thing is, I tried to talk Lydia out of these costumes.  It was a cooler day on Saturday and I kept telling her we could just wear jeans and the hats.  Until, I realized…….we may not have that many Halloween seasons left of cute family costumes.  So pink witches we were…..for the kickoff of Legoland’s Brick or Treat. We love Brick or Treat (this is our 3rd year doing it). It’s got some new activities this year, and I L-O-V-E that it’s included in your regular @legolandcalifornia ticket (bonus it ALSO will be included in Kids Free October here in SD).Our favs this year:- the wacky witch trail near the water park entrance- the zombie cheerleaders- halloween themed apple fries- the monster security checkpoint- Jam Out with the Rockers (this meet and greet is HYSTERICAL, scroll for the footage)Brick or Treat takes place on Saturdays in September and then Saturdays and SOME Sundays in October (dates are on the Legoland website).Welp, this makes it official.  Summer has come to an end. Bring on the Halloween fun!#sponsored #LEGOLANDcalifornia
