Yes, minis are super cute for summer [1], but if you're planning on riding a bike, sitting on the ground, or simply walking over sidewalk grates, they're not always the most practical choice. And, since our plans have us likely doing all three this season, we've had rompers on the brain as these versatile pieces can be paired with sneakers [2] or sandals [3] for a casual vibe (and heels or wedges [4] to go out), but still have that shorts-style bottom to minimize any flashing risk.
During our latest shopping quest, we found a bunch at Old Navy that we've already started styling in our heads — and they're all less than $45. It's impossible to pick one favourite . . . but the terrycloth rompers that seem like we magically turned our favourite beach towel into an outfit are hard to beat. See those — and more summertime options — ahead.
