It's a fact: sweltering Phoenician summers demand climate controlled clothes. But let's not be mistaken. Though the thermometer may dictate our wardrobe choices, the temperature should never be a style hindrance nor limit what trends may apply. Alas, we must seek out an all-encompassing seasonal essential: The romper. It's practical, transitional and chic — our newest summer staple.
The romper epitomizes the essence of summer in its playfuly sexy yet understated and laid-back detail. I spotted this Fashionista out for lunch on Mill. Her linen floral romper is accented by gladiator sandals and an embossed cross-body bag. These pieces loan strength and structure to the light femininity of her floral and feathered accessories. This look would be perfect for outdoor barbecues and festivals. It's summer comfort without skimping on the style.
Hint: Transition rompers to eveningwear by adding a loose blazer/cardigan, embelished clutch and woven pump.
