In this post I discussed my need for an office appropriate summer dress. I ended up ordering (in 2 different sizes) this dress:
and this dress:
And even with the extra size neither dress worked and both went back. :(
Not willing to give up on Piperlime.com I ordered this dress:
And it totally rocks! I'm very much looking forward to office outfitting with this piece. The vegan leather trim gives it that bit of edge that I like, and the pattern is kind of retro, but fresh.
Feeling pretty fierce with my workplace dress triumph I went out on a limb and purchased a romper:
Rompers are tricky. First, they are fairly juvenile and not the easiest item to pull off after age 25. Second, there's the question of functionality. Can you get in an out of it without assistance in a bathroom stall in under five minutes? And thirdly, where to wear? It's obviously not work appropriate and again functionality wise, if you're going out with friends how easily can you go to the restroom. Regardless of these concerns I ordered the above and I have to say I LOVE IT! It's so much fun and I can see myself wearing this in the hot hot days of summer and being comfortable.
