Stunners in Rompers

In the 1970's there was 1 piece of clothing that was SEXY, COMFORTABLE, & FUN all at the same time and that was the 1-piece jumpsuit.  Inspired by air force pilots' uniforms,  it evolved into a popular glam version made of silk or satin, elongating & highlighting the curves of a woman's body.

Think Charlie's Angels, Brigitte Bardot, even Liza Lorena & Cecilia Rodriguez!  hehehe.  It was so popular and is considered an iconic symbol of 1970's fashion.

the latest remake of the Charlie's Angels series
(jumpsuit is still part of the cast) :-)

I particularly like this one by Chic Yamada, 
their Boho Collection was inspired by Marianne Faithfull & Janis Joplin. 


and this one...



Elegant silhouettes. Why, this is by Halston, of course. *love*



It's better-known today as the romper and it's still as sexy & comfy as ever!


In neutral shades & minimal or NO accessories. I think 90's minimalism is coming back.
(Elle MacPherson, Katie Holmes, and I don't know who's in the middle. :p)

It's hard to pull off a jumpsuit in a solid and VERY bright color like this one, 
but if you DO (like this gal), it's unbearably chic.  
Pair w/ blonde hair, turquoise-strap shoes, and a smile.


Casual & still gorgeous. Best w/ a flowing mane of hair...
like Rosie Huntington's below:

What a hair! Watta body, watta cheekbones, watta jumpsuit. 


But I'm sorry Rosie, our very own Cherie Gil just made you eat dust w/ her Rajo Laurel jumpsuit. Step aside if you don't want red wine (or champagne, or water, or whatever) to be spilled all over your suit & your face! eeeps! Cherie, the crown is yours. In Tagalog, IKAW NA. *bow*



These denim numbers are fab as well. 
I've been looking for 1 just like Chloe Kardashian's...know where I can find one please?

Heidi Klum picking up her daughter from school. Effortless chic!

I can't seem to hate her. I'm sorry! She's my guilty pleasure,
all 3 of them damn Kardashian sisters.
I looooove her romper & her shoes  & her bag!


All jumpsuits look great w/ wedges...



...or metallic sandals (i probably own more than 6 pairs w/ I've all hopelessly worn them out)



finish off w/ minimal (just 1, if possible) accessories.


Because of it's all-the-way, 1-piece structure, some folks find it troublesome to take on & off. As my friend Tin Mags said, "Babe, it's hard to pee!" hahaha! So, it's probably not for everyone. 


But as a tribute to all my surf friends who undeniably ROCK THE ROMPER in their own signature way, I've put together this happy collage. 


STAY SEXY, COMFY & HAPPY EVERYONE!
(and yes, that's a baby romper you're seeing...I just couldn't help but put Cadence in!)
