A whole day at the market, and no handbag.

At 54, this jumpsuit has pockets and I use them. Comfortable enough for a long lunch, elegant enough for a summer dinner, and open at the back for warm evenings.

The Valeria jumpsuit
The Valeria jumpsuit, easy to wear and ready for the day.

I am not someone who writes letters like this, but I've worn this jumpsuit almost every week since it arrived.

For years I wanted three things from summer clothes. Something I could just put on without thinking about what goes with what. A waist that doesn't fight me after lunch. And pockets, real ones, so I'm not carrying a bag everywhere.

The Valeria jumpsuit is that piece. Mine is khaki. Here is everything I noticed about it, the five things that made me write this letter.

I found it through Scott & Daughters, and it's still available now at a New Chapter Sale price.

1Pockets I actually use.

The Valeria jumpsuit with practical pockets
A practical detail I reach for throughout the day.

I know we talk about pockets a lot. But there is a difference between pockets that technically exist and pockets that are actually useful. These are the second kind.

My phone fits. My keys fit. The first Saturday I wore it to the market, I had my hands free for the fruit and flowers, with my phone and keys close by.

The everyday differenceKeep a small essential close while your hands are busy with a coffee, a shopping basket or the rest of your day.

2A waist that moves with me.

The Valeria jumpsuit
Comfort for long lunches and everything in between.

The waist is elasticated and gathered, so it sits nicely and gives a bit of shape, but it moves with you.

I had a long lunch with my sister and never once wished I'd worn something looser.

Why it worksThe elasticated, gathered waist sits comfortably and moves with you through the day.

3Dressed in one step.

The open back and thin neck ties. One piece, nothing to match.

There's nothing to match. I step into it, tie the neck, add sandals and I'm ready.

On busy mornings that's worth more to me than I can say.

The lovely partThe halter neck and wide, flowing legs bring an elegant look, while the pockets make it practical.

4Longer legs in every photo.

The Valeria jumpsuit with wide, flowing legs
The wide legs give the jumpsuit a long, flowing line.

The legs are wide and flowing, and they fall straight to the floor, so the line runs from the waist all the way down.

In the photos from my niece's birthday I looked taller than I am, and I'll take that.

An easy summer lookWide, flowing legs and a halter neck make this an easy piece to wear on a warm day.

5Shoulders out for summer dinners.

The Valeria jumpsuit with its halter neckline
Two thin ties at the neck, and an open back down to the waist.

The halter neck ties behind with two thin strings, and the back stays open down to the waist. With a pair of earrings it looks dressed up straight away.

It's the one I reach for when we eat outside on a warm evening.

Less outfit planningThe open back keeps it light on a warm evening, and a pair of earrings makes it feel dressed up.

6Your colour. Your size. Your way of wearing it.

Mine is khaki. The Valeria also comes in white, black, green, burgundy and navy blue.

The Valeria comes in khaki, white, black, green, burgundy and navy blue, with sizes from S to 2XL. My advice: use the size chart on the product page and check which size suits you.

I wanted to write this down because I know how much time we spend looking for things that should exist and often don’t. A comfortable jumpsuit, with real pockets, that still looks lovely. I have found mine. I hope this helps you find yours.

With warmth,
