You guys! Last week, I couldn’t resist wearing my Fourth of July outfit a little early. It was Friday and I was feeling festive!
Garrett, Teddy, and I are all flying down to Florida to visit our families for the holiday. What are the odds that Garrett’s mom and my parents would live two hours apart?! It’s such an easy drive and I’m very happy we get to see everyone while we’re down there. We’re actually flying down on the fourth and then we’ll be there for a week. I think I’ll wear something more casual (white jeans and a blouse) on the plane and then change into this amazing romper for the day and night!
Perfect for a Florida poolside party!
Okay, so let me sell you on this romper for a second. I hate rompers. I really do. They look okay on some people, but I think they’re not the most universally flattering things out there. I was so, so skeptical when I read that this was not a dress. However, it’s essentially a dress. No one except for you will know it’s a romper. It’s like a cute little tank dress with a skort-like slip underneath. (The bottom half fits almost identically to the skort I wore here.)
It also has smocking on the top which I think really takes the fit to a new level. I felt so comfortable in this all day and can’t wait to wear it again this weekend.
Lilly ships really quickly so there’s still time to get this in time for Saturday if you hurry!

Ooh, I like how it's a "hidden" romper! It doesn't hurt that it's absolutely adorable too!

You are right about rompers, they aren't the most flattering, and don't get me started on needing to go to the bathroom… I love the print on yours, Carly. It's perfect for the 4th!

Your makeup looks stunning in these photos!! I'm normally not one for rompers because I"m so tall but I like how this is more dress like than romper!
