Does anything say “Spring” better than a romper? Well, maybe birds singing and flowers blooming à la Disney Princess montage, but let’s get real. When I think of Spring, I think of umbrellas, daffodils and rompers. I’m ready to throw one on and go “tra-la-lah”ing down to the lake with a picnic basket full of salads (e.g. potato salad, chicken salad, fruit salad).
In fact, I’m so excited about wearing rompers, I’ve already picked out about a trillion that I want to buy with my new earnings! And since I can’t buy them all (probably no more than one, if we’re being honest with each other), I’m sharing my findings with you, in the hopes that you will buy one, toss it on and come have a picnic with me. You know you want to.
P.S. These are just the “new” rompers I’ve found. Check back tomorrow for all the vintage ones!
