Grown-up Romper

Romper: Zara, similar

Shoes: Alexander Wang (in black)
Bracelets: BaubleBar (here, here, here), C. Wonder
Earrings: Boutique find, similar, similar

I hope you had a great weekend!  And cheers to the fact that it is a short week!  

I was very resistant to the adult romper trend.  We don't need to see pictures of the last romper I wore several years ago, but let's just say it was for a Vegas-esque trip and really only appropriate for Vegas/Miami type locales.  I was convinced that rompers couldn't be refined.  

 Enter this Zara romper, which I tried on on a whim as I was killing a little time in the mall (the most dangerous place to kill time!)  The fit is very refined, but sexy cutout back gives it a little edge and sex appeal for a perfect date night outfit.  Consider me a convert!

 Thanks for reading and have a great day!

    Oh, I love the romper! It looks awesome on you! I was hesitant to the trend to, until I found a really cute teal one that has a fit really similar. It's nice to know we can partake in trends but still look like adults!

    OMG, that romper is KILLER. I have not converted to the romper trend but I would wear your look head to toe. The back cut-out is super sexy but I love how it's balanced with a more covered front and not-too-skimpy length of shorts. You look amazing!

    I'm undecided on the romper trend. On the one hand, they look so cute but then they seem so inconvenient and it would be hard to find one that fits just right. But the way you look in this romper is making me want to go on the hunt for one. I love the simplicity of this romper with a couple of unexpected details.

      It is hard to find the right fit, but once you do, they can be so flattering. The only bad part is having to get practically undressed to go to the bathroom!
