Last week, in my Milwaukee recap, I hinted about sharing my first romper experience here on the blog and I’m so excited that today is finally the day! I bought this little number while in Wisconsin at the cutest store called The Navy Knot and the minute I tried it on I was instantly in love. So, naturally, I decided to wear it that same exact night to go out to dinner with Caroline and Fran. Coincidentally, Caroline was also planning on wearing hot pink that night, so we decided to shoot our outfits and make a mini collab out of it! Read below for more details about the look.

Rompers have always been difficult for me. As they’ve grown in popularity, my interest in them has certainly piqued, but unfortunately, since I’m wider in the hips, finding a romper that is both comfortable and flattering has always proved to be a challenge. When I saw this romper on the hanger though, and gave it a good look, I immediately knew it would work – I just had this feeling. The minute I tried it on, I felt like a whole. new. person. It was incredible! The fabric, is top quality silk, and has a pretty universally flattering cut. It’s also totally true to size and super comfy. Honestly I would live in it if I could.
My other favorite part about the romper is the color. We all know I’m partial to any shade of pink, but there was something about this color that stole my heart. It was the kind of pink that is rich and somewhat neon, without being obnoxious at all. I loved that it felt like something I could dress up with heels and accessories or dress down with sandals and the color could work for either occasion. If you’re looking to be a show stopper, this is definitely the romper for you. I got so many compliments on it!
Let’s talk about these shoes though. I picked them up right before my trip because I’d been eyeing them for months and I saw they finally went on sale at a local Trina Turk boutique. At first I was slightly skeptical, but I loved the idea of the ankle ties because I thought they were fun and different. These shoes are single-handedly one of the best heel purchases I have ever made. I feel like I could walk miles in them and never have sore feet. I know I am going to get a ton of wear from them at school this year and I can’t wait to wear them even more with other outfits! I think they will be especially good for Monday Night Dinners at my sorority this year.
I hope you loved this outfit as much as I loved sharing it. Be sure to go over to Caroline’s blog too to see how she styled hot pink for a night out with friends!
