Walking on Sunflowers (and Romping Around Town)














There's just something about sunflowers that scream happy. I think it must be the sunny coloring that put a smile on my face. It also is a little reminiscent of 90's fashion, I think most of us remember Blossom and DJ Tanner's style on Full House. I started seeing 90's-esque fashion pieces last year (everything really does come back in style) at stores like Urban Outfitters. The price tag for a sunflower dress similar to this romper was close to $90...so that was a no. Imagine my surprise when I found this adorable print romper for under $20! I loved the carefree, flowy look which is perfect for outdoor concerts, day dates and just romping around town in the hot summer temps. I chose to make this piece a little more bohemian by adding fringe sandals, fringed bag and my favorite summertime fedora. Add a few wooden tassel bracelets and these adorable heart shaped sunnies and the look is set. One note on the sunglasses, I had been saving up for a pair of these Wildfox Lolita glasses (coming in at $189) until I saw this pair at one of my favorite local boutiques...for $12. Definitely uncanny and a great find!

Y'all know how much I love rompers! I know some people don't care for them and think they are unflattering but I see them as a cute alternative to a dress which provides more coverage and a little dressier option than just shorts. This blush colored romper (under $25) has a romantic touch in such a soft shade of pink, great for showers and wedding parties. For something a little more different I really like this self-tie knotted jumpsuit (under $33) in figure flattering black and paired with platform sandals makes a fun retro look for a night out. This blue, off the shoulder romper (under $32) looks like a mermaid on land, great for a trip to the beach or when you want to feel like your at (or in) the ocean. This green leaf/feather inspired romper has quickly become one of my favorites (only $12!) and I also love this long sleeve floral print romper (under $16) for when the summer nights get a little cooler. Try a romper if you haven't already!

Shop today's look below and have a wonderful Tuesday!

XOXO,
