Playsuit

Rompers are so fun to wear in the Summer. Why? Well, to me they're as pretty as a dress but you can play in them, hence why they're often called playsuits!

I'm a dressy gal and like my outfits to have color, print and fit in a flattering way (shape and no cling). Playsuits are just what they sound like - a suit that you can truly play in. They can have waist defining structure and an aline design of a skirt/dress ... but with cool movement of a short. 

MY ROMPER

it's sold out nearly everywhere but you can rent here!

Wear them with flat sandals causally or with a heel and small handbag for dressier occasions.

Note: I've purchased this exact romper, in a crisp cool cotton poplin, every year for 3 years - see my first in light pink & last year's in blue print.

Here are some other fabulous rompers:

Friday Favorites: Rompers

An extra fantastic Friday for me! I'm at the beach, which is fantastic on its own, but it's extra extra fantastic because one of my sisters is with me!!! 

Yesterday we enjoyed lunch, strolling and shopping downtown in Wilmington's waterfront.

I wore a romper and was cool, comfortable and chic. Although I did take a bit longer in the ladies room unbutton and then fasten myself back up again but realistically it's 20 seconds. 

I like rompers in that they have the look of a mini dress with continuity but ease of movement & coverage of shorts.

Here are some fantastic rompers ...

Blue Floral Romper

Denim

Worth It Onsie

 

Rompers, they look like a dress but have the benefit of shorts. In a light weight fabric they're so cool and comfortable for day or night. I love the puff sleeves and roomy fit of this one - so much this is my second. I purchased in a solid light pink last year.

Now, you will be mostly naked each time you visit the ladies room ... but if your romper's cute #worthit

Style Tip: Look for one that has a zipper. This one has buttons and a zipper. The ones with belts or buttons in the back require the most work.

Swizzle

Last Monday I went to my very first ever concert!  - at 32!!!

I get the mouth open wide/concerned face when folks find out - allow me to explain.  I LOVE music, in fact I can play the piano and have played the flute for 20 years.  Simply put, I never had a group of friends that were huge concert goers and honestly there wasn't an artist I was such a huge fan of that justified the expense.  I've learned that concerts can be pricey. 

Now, Taylor Swift, she's my FAVORITE! I have every single one of her albums.  She's amazing!  She's a true artist in that she plays instruments, writes, produces, and performs her songs.  And let's confess, she's gorgeous too!  I'd kill for her grandaddy long legs.  T. Swift sends a positive message to her fans and to me is a genuinely lovely gal.  Oh and she's a kitty lover #winning.  In my mind we're besties :)  She loves crop tops as much as I do - sadly they're not appropriate in my line of work but hey, keep rockin' girlfriend! Coincidentally, the day of the concert was national best friend day, how fitting!  

I got to go with fabulous gal pals!  I've been away from Charlotte for over 2 years now but we're as thick as thieves and in a few short weeks I'll be returning as a Queen City resident & homeowner - y'all I CAN'T wait to share our new home with you as soon as we officially close the deal. 

I've been jamming out to the 1989 album since it's debut and now I'm officially a fan of live, loud concert sounds! 

Ready for the Show! 

Julie - she's moving to Charlotte too (we've purchased our new homes on the same day!) 

Me - I'm Tickled Hot Pink with Excitement!

Hadley - this gal's a trooper!  we didn't know she was preggo when we bought tickets - her new baby is an instant fan

Laura - our event planner and avid concert goer!  She was equally excited for my inaugural experience  

Prior to the concert Julie, Laura and I hit the makeup counter for the perfect shade of classic red lipstick.  

When it came to outfits we all went with a casual chic look that was comfortable and cool!

All 15,000 of us wore bracelets that lit up in colors flashing to the beat of the music

Laura & Julie 

Me & Hadley 

I sung every word and danced to every beat of every song!!!
