When I first saw all the rompers and jumpsuits in stores a year or two ago I thought, “No, absolutely not for me.” I just assumed, being 5’11, they would just not fit quite right or they would feel too short. I tried one on just to see and that solidified my opinion. Nope! It’s just not going to happen!
Fast forward to today, and I am still seeing jumpsuits in stores! I keep thinking, “how is this still a thing?” Well, one day I was browsing the sale rack at Anthropologie and noticed one particular light and airy jumpsuit that looked almost more like a sundress. Would it hurt to give a jumpsuit one more try? I thought, “why not?” and took it into the fitting room. In that moment while trying on the romper I looked in the mirror and thought, “This thing is fricken’ adorable!” Had I found the perfect romper/jumpsuit? Indeed I had! That moment is when my love affair with rompers and jumpsuits began. I realized, just like a pair of jeans, you have to find the right one for your body. It may take a while, but don’t fret, the right one is out there for you too. Now that I know more about what I am looking for, I am hooked. Here are a few of my favorites.
