Hello class, today’s topic is rompers. Ok, so I personally have gone really back and forth about rompers. I think the right cut on the right body can look really cute, but there are so many baaaaaaaad rompers out there! They’re especially treacherous on me because of my long torso. That being said, I found this little sailor romper at the thrift store and decided to bring it home. I immediately removed the super-matronly sleeves and shortened the shorts about 4 inches- originally it really looked like it was made for somebody’s grandma. So this is what I ended up with, although in retrospect I wish I would have gone with a brown shoe instead of so much white.
What do you think?
It does have those pockets that I love so much….
It had to be done.
Overall, I’m not unhappy with it, I’m just not sure I’m totally in love either. I think a large part of my apprehension is due to the pleat in the front of the shorts, I’m not a huge fan of pleated pants or short. The other thing that I hate is when you’re wearing a romper with a belt, you pretty much have to completely undress when you pee. Annoying.

I think it looks great! You always doing an amazing job on your alterations! Overall, I love it!
Personally, I think rompers are only okay on little kids. The one you’re wearing is really cute, but it looks like a dress, not a romper, and I think that’s one reason why it’s so cute.
