As you can see, this is another case of "Blogging made me shop."
I was sitting at my desk at work, waiting for my laptop to boot up. (I swear it takes a good 6 minutes or so.) Naturally, I passed time sifting through my Instagram feed, and that's where I saw this pic of Rachelle wearing this awesome romper. Instantly I died. And then I died even harder when I ordered it shipped for $38. Originally $175! Shut up! I love a good deal.
Sunnies: Gucci | Earrings: Stella and Dot | Necklace: Stella and Dot | Bag: Gucci | Romper: Romeo & Juliet Couture (on crazy sale!) | Bracelet: Stella and Dot | Heels: Christian Louboutin (option, budget option)
If you read Rachelle and my banter on her IG pic, she mentioned me wearing this with red shoes. I *almost* did, then decided to go with nude instead with minimal accessories. After all, the romper is a pretty big statement in and of itself. On my way out though, I decided to grab this bag. I died with the shoe/bag pic above. The husband is really honing his photography skills!
OK, so now onto this week's theme of keeping you guys Fall Fashion Inspired - I put together a few ways on how I plan to continue to wear this romper throughout the cooler months. If you're doing the math - $38 divided by 4 outfits equals a little over $9 per wear. Totally works for me because I know I will wear it even more than 4 times. It makes it easy since this is already a whole outfit in and of itself, I really just need to add some accessories! If this gets you inspired for fall (or even if not) - be sure you enter the $450 gift card giveaway!

DeleteI like the fact you have matched that playsuit with nude heels,
ReplyDeletemakes the whole outfit look more classy!
Thanks so much! I thought about doing red, but decided to do that with my bag instead!
DeleteBlogging ALWAYS makes me shop! Story of my life. Love that bag!
ReplyDeleteCha Cha The Fashion Genius
Thank you!!
DeleteGlad you can relate!
Thank you for confirming my analysis in my post today that a red bag should be my next choice!! ha ha!! You and Rachelle look SO GOOD in full leopard and once again, you killed it with the polyvore sets. :) I'm really looking forward to those all week!
ReplyDeleteGina - On the Daily Express
Thank you so much!
DeleteAnd yes!!!! You need a red bag. Definitely for sure 100% :)
Dang- no pressure on the polyvores! :)
Ahh!! Yes, Blogging makes me shop (which you already know!), so I was afraid to even look at your post today...lol!!! Awesome romper, AND a good deal!!! Eeek!! I really love the way you styled it with the black tights and wedge booties...my fave!
ReplyDeleteKellie @ www.ie-style.com
Yes - I can't wait to wear it that way with the tights! I think it will be great! Fingers crossed!
DeleteCarylee, you and Rachelle are both rocking that gorgeous leopard romper (which I want by the way). I actually want at least 50% of what I see other bloggers wear. In your outfit's case, I'd love to have the romper and the shoes. Hahaahaa, blogging makes us even more shop-aholic. I am one already, I don't need help in this area. LOL
ReplyDeleteYep - blogging definitely enables more shopping! But it's all good - I love pulling inspiration from so many fashionable ladies I would not have otherwise met!
DeleteI love this!! Looks great styled both ways. Love the nude shoe and the pop of red since the print is a neutral itself :-) I think you could certainly wear this into fall !!!

Thanks so much!
DeleteYes, that is my fave look as well! Can't wait to try it out!
Story of my life! Blogging always makes me shop. I can't believe you got such a great deal on this romper! It looks so good on you and I love it with the red bag!

Thanks, Nicole! Yes, I couldn't believe it, too! It was an easy purchase!
DeleteYou look fabulous! But I'm so jealous of how much of a steal you got it for. I could not for the life of me get the same numbers as you did when I tried to order it when you originally posted about it. I do not have your shopping skills. Ha.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think there was an additional 30% off or something at the time, too! Boo! I'll let you know if I spot it cheaper!
DeleteThat is quite a deal on that romper, and it looks great they way you styled it.
ReplyDeleteNatalia
Thanks so much!
DeleteYeah, I was floored with how cheap it ended up being!
Hmm yes, blogging definitely does trigger some shopping urges, but I am mostly behaving. I really like the 2nd styling option with the black tights. Not sure I could pull off wearing it under a skirt, would be afraid it getting too voluminous around the hips.
ReplyDeleteAlex - Funky Jungle
Thank you!
DeleteThe romper is really thin and I have a pleated maxi skirt that I would love to try it with! Will see how it turns out!
Love the romper!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much - it's great!
DeleteLove this romper on you! So fierce yet feminine!! You got an amazing deal on it! I love the style idea of pairing it with black booties, a black blazer, and tights! So perfect for fall:)

Thanks, that is my fave too!
DeleteI still don't own a single romper. But this leopard romper looks gorgeous on you - perfect with the bun!!
ReplyDeleteA new post is up on the blog. I'd love to hear your thoughts if you are able to drop by: http://www.fashchronicles.blogspot.com
Yeah, I went from zero to sixty on the rompers this year, oops! This was such a great deal, and it was leopard. I could not say no!
DeleteCarylee,
ReplyDeleteThis looks AWESOME on you! Actually you and Rachelle really rocked this one. I am looking at it and have to remind myself that I don't need anything new right now...lol. This is definitely one of those items that I would love to rock. You styled it FABULOUSLY, as usual, with the heels and red purse. Great outfit honey.
