Happy Friday!!!  Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like bodysuits have been growing in popularity lately.  I was  a little unsure of them at first, but I finally decided I had to try one out.  I ordered 3 different ones and trying them on made me feel a little like Goldilocks.  One was too long, one was a bit too tight, but the third was absolute perfection.  I figured I’d run through a few of my and my friends questions and concerns over bodysuits, in case you have any of the same ones.

Let’s start with the main one, how do you go to the bathroom in this thing?  I feel like everyone who has ever headed out in a romper has had that moment when you suddenly realize that you have to take the whole thing off when it’s time to go the bathroom.  Super glamorous, especially if this is taking place in a not so clean bathroom (think bars, concert port-o-potties).  Needless to say, it causes me to make sure I really love a romper before purchasing.  Here’s the great thing about bodysuits, someone thought to put snaps on the bottom!  Think a baby’s onesie.  No getting naked in the bathroom, just a few easy snaps.

Second, are they comfortable?  The fit is just like a one piece swimsuit.  I find mine comfortable. Just like with a swimsuit, you will probably have to try a few to find ones that fit your body type and that you feel comfortable in.  I’m petite, so for me it’s finding one that is not too long.  The bottom portion comes in either thong fit or full bottom, so it’s a pick your preference kind of thing.

What’s my favorite thing about them?  I love that I don’t have to worry about my shirt coming untucked.  This is one of those little annoyances of mine.  A bodysuit will stay in place as you move or dance around.

What do you wear it with?  Everything!  Jeans, skirts, shorts.  I can’t wait to wear this one with one of my pleated midi skirts soon.

Hopefully, my little bodysuit review was helpful if you have been considering one.  In this one, I am wearing a US6.  Let me know if you have any other questions, and I will be sure to answer them.

For today’s post, I styled my bodysuit for an upcoming girls’ night out.  Dark wash skinny jeans, bright pink statement earrings, and floral statement heels come together to create the perfect show stopping outfit for a night out on the town.  I hope you all have a fabulous weekend, and thank you so much for stopping by!

Hello Ladies!  How was your weekend?  I took full advantage of the extra long weekend to shop, soak in some sun, catch up on blog work, and hang out with friends. I crammed in as much fun as possible.  My favorite sale purchase is probably these shoes.  They are perfect for Spring and Summer!  I love the slightly lower than my normal heel on them to wear to outdoor events.

My off the shoulder love continues with this striped ruffle top.  The stripes on this are navy and white, sometimes they look black depending on the lighting.  I love this top for date night, happy hour, or girls’ night out.  I wore this ruffle off the shoulder top out a few weeks ago with distressed jeans (seen here) for a casual happy hour with my girlfriends.  I love that it can be easily dressed up or down.  Also, it looks gorgeous with white jeans for a dressy daytime look.  It also comes with a strap to wrap around the waist, but I prefer it loose and flowy.

Also, these double hoop earrings are my latest jewelry obsession.  I have them in constant rotation for both work and weekends.  I love the unique double hoop and the delicate simple style.  The simplicity makes them work well with so many different outfits. Bonus, these earrings are only $10!

I hope you guys have a great rest of the day.  Thanks for stopping by and don’t forget to scroll down and check out the Style Link Up for more fabulous outfit inspiration!

Hello!!  How was your weekend?  I finally made it out to my pool.  We didn’t quite get to 80, but we did get to 73 outside and that was good enough for me!  I also squeezed in an outdoor morning run on Sunday.  I figured I should take advantage of the cool mornings because it will not be long until it’s too hot to run outside no matter how early you go.

Y’all how cute is this gray striped ruffle top!  I love this outfit for a weekend night out or even a little date night.  I added in my favorite block heel sandals and a few different pops of color to complete this look.  The magenta and teal work so well together and really look perfect next to the gray.

You could also make this top work for daytime by trading in your jeans for a pair of white or black shorts and trading the heels for wedges or flat sandals.  The material is really lightweight and the boxy style will be perfect for a hot summer day.  I sized down to an XS because of the boxy fit of the top.

I hope you guys have a great week!  Thank you so much for stopping by and don’t forget to check out the style link up at the end of today’s post!

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday!! How was your weekend?  After a busy week, I ended up not doing anything over the weekend and loving it!  It was the perfect weekend for a little recharge and relaxation.

This blue striped off the shoulder top is a great mix of both classic and trendy for Spring.  When I think Spring prints, I have to include blue and white stripes.  It’s as Spring for me as gingham and florals. 🙂  It’s a classic print that can be dressed up or down and worn a variety of ways.

This classic print is given a little trendy vibe with the off the shoulder style.  The band on this top is really good at holding this top in place and is not too tight.  I styled this top for a fun evening out with jeans and some pops of color, but you can also pair it with white shorts and wedges for a daytime outfit.

I hope you’re week is fabulous and don’t forget to check out the Style File Link Up at the end of the post for more style inspiration!  Thanks for swinging by today!
