Oh, hello! :D This is an outfit I put together over the weekend for brunch and coffee. This has been my weekly ritual for four years, now. ^_^ This time, I wanted to do something comfortable with lots of color.

The floral romper is so beautiful. The pictures don't really capture the richness of colors in the fabric. I love it! The vintage cardigan really pulls it all together, in my opinion. I love the slouchy long arms. I have a tendency to pull down the wrists of my sweaters and cardigans over my hands. It's a bad habit from my childhood, I think. Anyway, I can totally do that with this cardigan or I can wear it bunched up as you see here. It's so soft and cozy! It has pockets, too! I know I'll get a lot of wear out of this. :D

Picture

I layered my sheer American Apparel floral bodysuit underneath for some additional textures and wore sheer tights with a subtle chevron pattern. That's about it. I threw on a hat and boots, grabbed my backpack and I was ready to hit the road!
Oh and I decided to try out my new cat eye glasses. The lenses are ginormous and it was that quality which made me utterly obsessed with having them. :P

Picture

This beautiful romper is for sale, by the way! Be aware that it is a Size Large! I hope my photos do it justice, as it is just one size too big for me. The straps come undone because I just don't have the girls to fill it out. Haha. So, I could never wear it by itself, but as you can see, I could still get by wearing it with a cardigan. ;) I hate that I have such a beautiful piece that I can't truly enjoy, so please buy it! *^_^*

Girl your look is really cute. Love the tights with the shorts. That is one of my favorite looks! Also love how you paired the black lace top. Its like a peekaboo effect and adds flair to the little jumpsuit. Not found flowers anything that I really like yet but love the look on you! Also I like how you added the belt as well!

We need more pictures of the glasses please! I love your idea of layering the romper over the bodysuit. I now have a way to get more use out of my rompers this season! I also pull my sweaters over my hands, and they're pretty much destroyed by the time I'm finished with them. That's why thrifting is a perfect way to stock up! Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful fall look!

I second the request for more photos of the glasses (I'm a huge sucker for cat eye glasses). They look awesome! Love the look of the lace under the bright floral! This is a perfect brunch outfit :)

Yellow and lavender--who would've thunk it, except for you! I thought the romper fit really well, but you can always get it taken in. It would be worth it---the color and pattern is so beautiful.

My favorite part was also the body suit underneath. Just a great extra detail, extra texture.

I absolutely adore that romper! I'd totally buy it if it was my size. Also, I say this ever time but you seriously are awesome at layering. I never would have thought to put a lace jump suit under a romper, but it really does work and looks awesome!

Having your the wrists of your sleeves is a bad habit? I do it too! Sometimes it's just more comfortable that way :) And BTW, I'm totally digging that mustard yellow cardi on you! I have yet to covet the perfect mustard yellow cardi. One day though. ONE DAY!
