One that romps

romp·er (rŏm'pər) n.
1. One that romps.
2.A loosely fitted, one-piece garment having
short bloomers that is worn especially by small children for play.


The definition of the word romper states that this is an item of clothing that small children wear. But not anymore! Rompers are a great summer outfit. It’s easy to wear because once you put it on; all you have to worry about is accessories and shoes.

In my opinion, rompers really came back into fashion around 2 summers ago. As I started becoming a fan of Katy Perry I noticed that she wore a lot of these really cute and colorful outfits that of course were rompers. AND I'm not saying that Katy Perry singlehandedly brought rompers back into fashion but I think she did help a little bit :)
Around this time it was very hard to find any rompers in stores but thankfully the next summer more websites and stores started carrying them. And now, it’s hard to walk into a clothing store without laying your eyes on a romper!














So here are some of the rompers that I have found on the wonderful world that is the internet:

I found this classy little romper at http://www.modcloth.com/. It's called "wings of a dove" and it's $59.99 .This romper is more of a fancier one because of the sleeves and the lace.





This "Pompidou" romper can be found at http://www.anthropologie.com/ for $58.00. I figured it would be more expensive but I guess not. Oh and I highly recommend to check out the website. I swear if I had all the money in the world I would buy all my clothes from anthroplogie.


This romper can be found at http://www.macys.com/ for $59.00. I THINK THIS ONE IS ADORABLE! I love the polkadots. This romper would look even more adorable if you decided to wear a flower in your hair : )


This "Moon Collection" romper can be yours for $48.00 at http://www.shopkitson.com/
I wish we had a kitson boutique because the print on this romper is so gorgeous.






This romper is from the brand Pins and Needles and can be found at http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/ for $48.00. I know it looks more like a dress but I swear there are shorts under there! This one is adorable and perfect for a summery day.





This Volcom "take cover" romper I found at http://www.pacsun.com/ This romper is more of a casual one that you could easily put over your bathing suit whenever you go to the beach. This one is $36.50.




I think this one is really cute and really inexpensive compared to the other ones that I listed. This romper can be found at http://www.wetseal.com/ for only $24.50. I'm thinking I might try and find this one whenever I go to the mall soon :D


So I hope this post tickled your fancy. It took me longer than expected...probably because I was such in a bad mood yesterday. Well better late than never.
