Romping Around with Florals & Michael

Hey everyone! Sorry about the delayed post, college has been murdering me and my social life. I have another Ootd/mini photoshoot post for y'all this time though. :) For those of you who follow my personal Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts, you have seen this outfit. I will also keep this blog post pretty short as it the Oscar's is happening tonight! I am gonna make some NongShim Spicy noodles, sit, relax, and analyze them fancy red carpet looks. Last weekend, I hung out with my beautiful friend/colleague, Jenna, and she and I spent most of the day working deligently on our logo streams for this social media project. Click here for mine, please hit that like button, comment, and/or recommend me some royalty free music to use if you can :). Before night fell, and thanks to her Nina's beautiful patio, Jenna was able to take some pics of me and my outfit for this wonderous blog. Wham, bam, spick and spam! Without further ado, here are the photos:

Accessories: Necklace from H&M, Michael Kors Rose Gold Watch and Selma Handbag; pom accessory from local boutique, Lucky Starrr on nails from the Patrick Starrr and Sephora Formula X collab

Shoes are from Forever 21~ Comfortable, gorgeous, stylish, and inexpensive.

Damn my legs are kinda pale, lol.

I am such a sucker for rompers. (For those of you who don't know what a romper is, it is basically a one piece apparel. The top is attached to the bottom.) Dress them up or down, they are extremely versatile. Add a blazer to get a professional look or put on a floppy hat and you get a super fashionable look. There is so much you can do!

I love all kinds of rompers - short, long, dress, patternerd, etc. This super cute navy blue floral romper with bishop sleeves is from the boutique store, ANGL. I love floral patterns but not all kinds as some can make the outfit look like grandma's curtains. I suggest finding patterns where the flowers are larger and more spread out and generally with a neutral dark colored background.

Every girl should own at least one romper. You definitely won't regret it! Make sure you read the care labels on how to take wash and dry them though. I have had issues of shrinking my poor rompers..

Pros of rompers:

+ Stylish

+ Versatile

+ Comfortable and breathable

+ Short rompers and high-waisted rompers make you look like you have legs for days

+ Come in a variety of shapes, fabrics, patterns, sizes

+ Makes your bum look great

Cons:

- Have to take the whole thing off when using the restroom

- Some come in one size and one size doens't always fit all - make sure you get the right size, don't want anything to hang loose or bulge :(

- Some styles are tacky

tl;dr Rompers are awesome. They are onesies that you can wear outdoors and look acceptable!
