By now, you know I love a good blue and white button down shirt. So you really shouldn’t be surprised over my excitement when I stumbled upon crisp blue and white in a gingham pattern…and in shirtdress form, too! This number by Alexis is in fact, a romper with a skort bottom, making it one of my new favorite additions to my closet. And the details…let me tell you about the details.
As I mentioned in this outfit post the other day, Alexis is one of my go-to’s for pieces with exquisite attention to detail. And believe me, with this brand, you’re getting the premium quality that you’re paying for. My favorite, high-quality detail with this piece is probably its long sleeves with ruffled, spiral cuffs. They’re just plain fun! And the flowy shape of the top, along with the fitted, elasticized waistband create just the statement I love in a piece like this. I’ve found that the blouson shape is pretty much universally flattering. And here, the bottom also features a higher hem on the sides, along with a concealed skort that ensures you’ll be comfortable and covered up all day.
While I originally discovered and scored this gingham romper at Neiman’s, but I actually just found it on MAJOR sale over at Bergdorf Goodman’s today! Hurry, hurry and snatch it up before it’s gone; I promise you won’t regret it!
This romper being so fabulous and all, I knew I didn’t want to play it safe with accessories, rather, I wanted to make it pop! I paired our red straw clutch from the shoppe; it’s a favorite of mine under $35 and perfect for a fun look like this. I also went for an arm stack party with gold bangles and our bestselling Teleties hair bands that look just as good on the wrist as they do in your hair…and they come in so many great colors. Lastly, I donned one of my favorite cocktail rings of all time, by Julie Vos.
Tell me, are you a sucker for all things blue and white and gingham like I am?! This romper gives me life! Truly, MKR
