Romping Around

by Jen on Monday, May 20, 2013


I realize how cliché it sounds to say it's great to shop your closet, but rediscovering a special piece always reinforces how great it can be. This romper hadn't left the confines of my closet since 2011, when I wore it instead of a cocktail dress to a friend's birthday. Inspired by this gorgeous Club Monaco romper the other day, I pulled this forgotten beauty out and wore it in a casual look for an after work coffee date with Alex.
Wearing: Forever 21 romper (old), Zara jacket, Saint Laurent clutch, Stuart Weitzman flats (c/o, on sale!), Kay Tran sunglasses (via ShutUpILoveThis), lips Estee Lauder in Rich Red

Beautiful clutch! I've gotten a lot of use out of my little red clutch; it really does go with everything.

Rompers look so awkward on me, but this one looks like it was made for you! And from F21, no less!

Can't believe that romper is from f21! It looks great with that leather jacket.

Wow, great find Jen! I can't believe it's Forever21 - how come people find the best pieces there and I always leave empty-handed...

Really loving this look and I'll never get tired of seeing that leather jacket.

It's always a great feeling when you rediscover a great piece in your closet, and in your case it's even better that you found such permanence in a piece from F21! I love the pops of red that you added and it's great to see you incorporating flats into more of your outfits.

I read your blog everyday. A while ago you posted a place where you got your ipad case and I would like to ask you again because I like it so much but didn't have an ipad at that time.

thanks

LOVE! so cute and such a chic clutch!

I'm in love. Rompers are the perfect piece for summer. The only thing I wonder--are they a pain in the ass when you go to the bathroom? I have a jumpsuit and I hate it in the bathroom. LOL.

Romper looks like it fits really well! Did you have to have it hemmed? Very cute and love how you show lots of ways to wear the leather coat.
