I bought this romper during the epic thrift haul event with BFF. I love rompers and I'm glad they've made a small comeback this summer. This one features lovely coconut shell buttons and a paisley pattern that reminds me of my South African fabric. It has pockets too!
True story: I've been unknowingly wearing it backwards. I put it on this morning and a noticed the pocket on my back. How did I miss that? So now that I know the buttons are in the back this makes it a little bit more difficult to wear and it's definitely not breast-feeding friendly. I could continue to wear it the other way too. I would have to remove the button and wear my hair down so it's not so noticeable.
Romper - $2.80 |
WOA: To clean your new to you thrift store shoes. Clean them well with sudsy water. Disinfect with alcohol. Sometimes I spray them with a disinfecting spray too. Add a shoe pad for an extra layer between you and the shoe. I mainly add the pad to shoes I can't see inside of like boots.
I use to be apprehensive but I've gotten over it. I've never gotten any toe/foot "fun guys" from them.
Enzo Angiolini - $3.80. A bit over my max but I really liked them, they're in great condition and they are my size. |
Do you wear thrift store shoes? Have a good cleaning tip?

I'm soo debating wearing a romper tonight
I don't thrift like you do, and if you remember, the day you took me out was a bust. But...I'd wear second hand shoes--after all, new shoes get tried on by who knows how many women before we buy them. I think those are great shoes! As for the romper, I'm too long of a torso to wear one, so this comment finds me envious on many levels!
@Abigael I love tribal/african prints too!
@Girl ROCK IT!
@Ellen I have a long waist and most elastic waist clothing is around my bust. This one was so right...we'll have to do a thrift trip again. I've been having great luck lately.
I have yet to get shoes from the thrift store. I'll add it to my list.
Girlfriend! Love Love Love the shoes. I've never worn a romper before. I don't know if I can (I'm kinda thick, ya know?). (and for the record I'm incredibly jealous that you and Ellen get to hang out together).
@Laila Sunday!!! woohooo!
@DaenelT thanks! I wasn't looking for shoes. they just appeared.
Ellen is local but still far far away. We used to live really close to each other.
LOVE the romper hun! Its amazingggg!!! And I have a romper with buttons on the back too. Im tempted to wear it the wrong way because when I have to go the restroom its a pain. Did i mention how jealous I am of that romper?! lol
