I don't like only being able to wear things for a short time frame throughout a year. Of course, not much can be done with things like down filled coats, rain boots and bikinis among other things, but I for one like to keep at least 80% of my closet in rotation for the entire year. That's why I was a bit hesitant to purchase rompers. It was hard to resist how cute they are and how many were available for minuscule amounts of money, but their one-piece nature made it hard to wear in multiple ways. Being stubborn, I began wearing them as tops with shorts over them and as bottoms with tops over them. Et voila! An inexpensive piece of clothing that has the ability to be stretched for multiple purposes? Not much better than that.
But of course, nothing beats spending the afternoon with my favourite person!:
Wearing: Miss Selfridges Romper (last seen here), Zara trousers, vintage belt, Coach flats, H&M knit circle scarf

Gosh you two look so lovable! Like a couple of teddy bears :D I understand what you meant with this post, I tend to do the same thing. I don't like buying something and wear it only once or twice.

Awww so we finally get to see a shot of your man! You two look so good together :)
haha I admire your determination in making rompers versatile, but doesn't that also mean you have that many more clothes to strip off whenever you need to pee???

Another lovely look. You have such great style, lady! I nabbed a romper from a clearance rack a few weeks ago, my first one. They seem like the ultimate experimental piece. I'm excited to try it with different things and see what works. :)
