Blue Romper in Islington

07/24/20 | Fashion Friday, Fitbit, French Connection, John Lewis, London Photoshoot, Summer Style

Le Specs Sunglasses and French Collection Romper

I am a fan of dresses and I do not think that will ever change but something they are just not practical.   Especially in this COVID world.  What do I mean by that?   Well, instead of public transport I find myself biking many more places and either a dress tends to flip up in the wind or be too long it gets caught in the chain.  And with London traffic I need to be paying 100% attention to the road and other viechles, not worried about my attire.  Or the practice of meeting up at a bar for a drink has turned to a drink in the park which usually involves sitting on the grass – again, not undoable but also not the best in a dress so this is where sorts and playsuits come in.

The first time I said playsuit I think Mark thought I was making it up but a romper is just a jumpsuit that ends before your knee.  They are much better for warm days but still give you the ease of a one-piece dress and the movement of shorts – a great combination even if it does make going to the bathroom difficult.   I picked up this cute tropical printed one from John Lewis during their Spring sale and think the blue / green colour combo is a ton of fun.  Plus the six inch inseam is a great length – take a look this French Connection romper:

    Great print, color and I really like the neckline. Simple but very stylish for a casual outfit.

    Is it as comfortable as it looks? Sometimes they are hard to take off, is this one hard or is there room enough to take it off easily?

    You are adorable in this outfit! I love the fun colors and goes great with the sandals and lipstick color. So very pretty Kelly!

    Fantastic casual outfit. My daughter’s birthday is coming up and I am going to order this right now for her to add to her other gifts from me.

    She will love it and hopefully think I am being very “current” with this fashion trend.

    Those earrings are really cute too.

    You look so gorgeous in the first photo. Not sure what you are doing with your skin but you are glowing.

    Don’t see a ring on your finger so not sure if it is pre or post engagement?

    Cute photos and a good look on you. Hope it looks half as good on me!

    Cute rompers is another one of my favorite summer time go to outfits. Perfect for casual events. I love your tropical print romper. I need to buy a few more rompers. I only have 2. Love those comfy flip flops too.

    I’m not usually a big fan of rompers but you look so adorable in this I’m going to have to rethink my feelings on rompers.

    The way you’re smiling I can tell you feel really pretty wearing it. Good choice.
