    Personally... i hate them. I feel like they should be worn with farrah hair and roller skates. But who cares what I think? Wear what makes you happy :)

    I don't have a photo of it - but my MOH gave me one in my shower gift (she did a custom honeymoon kit - it's rad!)  I'm a size 14 and would never have bought one for myself, but it's SUPER cute!  It's from Express.  Such a comfy outfit to wear on a hot day in Mexico!

    The one you posted is awesome - go for it!

    They are hit or miss - and that one shoulder blue one is a hit!

    They are really cute on a very particular body type.  I've tried a few on and looked ridiculous, but the girls I work with (ballerinas) look super cute.  Therefore, I am not a fan.

    Personally I love them, even vintage terry cloth ones! I just can never think of the right shoes to wear with them. I don't think flip flops would be right. Maybe wedges?

    I love rompers! I have four. I wear them with wedges or gladiator sandals and jazz 'em up with some cute accessories.

    IMO, I love them as long as they are not strapless or too short. Yours looks cute and like a great dress alternative. Although I brought mine on my honeymoon and completely forgot to wear it.

    I like the simpler ones- I have a simple black one with a tie at the waist that I wore all summer.   For me the bright blue, plus the ruffle, plus the one shoulder is too much on a romper.

    Next question-

    Where to find them this time of year? I found that one on ebay which I might get but when things are time sensitive I try not to order from ebay incase it doesnt come in on time.

    I would search for rompers on closeout sites such as bluefly and 6pm.com. Also, I find shopstyle.com helpful when I am searching for something.

    i actually brought two casual ones with me... and wore one on a day of excursions over my bathing suit and it was perfect for the weather and comfort! :) best part - i got it for $5.99 at forever21 :P

    I love them! I wore one earlier this year on our trip to Puerto Rico. It was great as a cover up over my bathing suit. Depending on the material you can dress them up or down. I love that blue one. I'd definitely wear that.

    Love them!  I have a few, (2 casual and one dressy).  The dressy one is from Anthro and has a vintage pinup vibe. Great with heels for a night out.  And I practically lived in the two other ones over the summer

    I love them.   So comfy and so easy to throw on!  I wear them out bumming on a saturday, and I even wore one to work on casual Friday with a long cardigan.

    My sister and I both "romped" in Jamaica!

    I think they are cute, it just has to work with your body type. I found one at Charlotte Russe.

    I used to hate them but now I'm kinda into them. They're cute! I can't figure out how you go to the bathroom in them though.

    LOL, I totally had deja vu reading this!  Look at the related post!  :-)

    (I guess maybe because I've never heard of a romper?)

    You pretty much have to pull the whole thing down to go to the bathroom.  I have one that's super easy, but another I have to unbutton and it's annoying.

    Rompers are great for the beach! i have a few and im not very fashion forward so i wouldnt dare wear them out for a night on the town, but for the beach/honeymoon i think they are perfect.

    That blue one is adorable! where did you find it?

    I think they are really cute if you can pull it off.  They remind me of being a kid--I used to wear them when I was around 9-10 years old, but I am 33 so people in their early 20's may not have worn them as children (?).  I do remember them being annoying when I had to go to the bathroom, but maybe it is one of those things that seemed like a big deal that wasn't.  Anyway, I think a honeymoon is a good place to try out a romper!

    I personally hate them, but I can admit they look cute on some people, I just... ugh, I get images of feathered hair and roller skates and disco.

    They're actually pretty comfortable to wear. I have one from god knows when, maybe from 15 years ago, that I wear at home for comfort. I wore it the morning of our wedding while getting my hair & makeup done and I completely forgot the photographer was going to come in the room and take pics of that! Now it's immortalized in my pics whether I like it or not, LOL.
