This pretty floral romper is key now through early fall.
Whether you like it or not, summer is drawing to a close. I live for summer fashion, but there is a little something exciting about new sweaters and boots. I’m mixing a little of both here with this look: an adorable + summery Everyday Runway floral romper from my local fave, Kindred Shops, worn both with and without a super chunky, oversized cardigan from Topshop. A pair of blush wedges (old Target jams, but score an updated version here) root this look in the warmer months, with the cardigan acting as a cozy backup for chilly restaurants and movie theaters. (Seriously, why are these places so cold in the summer?)
To jazz this romper up with a fall spin, think about swapping the wedges for a pair of tall leather boots (like the ones in this post, for example). Add a pair of tights if you need, or replace the cardigan with a leather motorcycle jacket. A few little tweaks and this romper easily rolls into late September, early October.
Shop the look:
For right now, Kansas City is still much in the heat of the summer– 90+ degrees as far as the forecast can see. I’m sure I’ll be missing these dogs days come mid-February, but a little relief would be nice.
Speaking of fall, Kindred Shops is starting to pack its racks with fall pieces. Kindred is located inside of Oak Park Mall (on the lower level, just outside Nordie’s) and houses 10+ local boutiques for you to shop. While they specialize in clothing, they also have a selection of shoes, jewelry (they actually just launched a collaboration with local jewelry designer, EB!), accessories, and home goods. I swing in there whenever I need a closet refresh, have an event to shop for, or I need to pick up a gift for a pal!

Thank you!
Lovely look!
Thank you!
“Wow!”, This was the first word that came to my head when I saw this look. It’s fabulous. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! I love it!
Thank you so much, doll!
I pretty much always travel with a cardigan in the summer because there are some places that have the A/C jacked so high that they are just frigid. I love how cozy your sweater looks – and the romper is just too cute.

Yes- totally with you! It’s just so CHILLY inside because of all the aggressive air conditioning!
That romper is cute but I am utterly obsessed with your cardigan! The knit, the colour, the length – its gorgeous! I clicked through on your link but it looks like this colour is no longer available although the pink is pretty cute! Thanks for sharing! X

You might keep an eye on it- it could restock? Nordstrom has been crazy with the NSale, but now that it’s over, I think you might see things starting to reappear. 🙂
Loooooove how you paired the pretty sweater with this pretty romper! Such a cute casual look babe! And your hair is perfection -xo

The fact that Summer is coming to an end has got me so down! That being said, a small part of me is looking forward to layering, right? You know I love a romper, and this is just gorgeous on you. The colors make it a fabulous transitional piece!

Thanks so much!
Oh gosh, loving these autumny colors on this summery romper! What an original color palette – the soft golden yellow with the pink, navy and that beautiful muted brown. I might have to come up with something with that color combo!

Autumn colors in a summer piece is a great way to start to inch toward fall when it’s still summer!
Love that romper. It’s so cute and the colors are great for moving into fall. I’m so sad to see summer coming to an end though. I host a blog link-up every Wed, so if you’re interested, you’re welcome to stop over and link up you posts. http://www.thismainlinelife.com
Thanks for swinging by, Julie! I’m going to be sad to see summer go!
Ok, that cardigan (combined with our current 90 degree temps) definitely has me craving fall weather ASAP!!
Haha, right? When we get into Heat Wave Mode, I def start craving fall weather!
That floral romper is so cute and I love how you styled it! The cardigan looks amazing with it and the color of it is so pretty. I’m definitely ready for more fall weather and fashion!

Thanks, Kara! I’m right there with you- I’m ready for some fall things but summer weather is just the best!
I’m so not ready for Summer to be over yet. I think I love summer fashion because it is so effortless! I don’t need to try LOL. But I do love how you styled this romper and pairing it with that cozy cardigan is such a great transitional look!

Thanks, Zorica! 🙂 Happy Wednesday!
I love rompers! I don’t know why but every time I see someone else wears them I get excited. Your romper is no exception and I love how you incorporated a cardigan to your look for versatility. It looks good both ways!

Thanks, Maureen! I love this romper and the cardigan was a nice touch- for indoors now and for all the time later! 🙂
Lovely romper. And the wedges go perfectly with it.
I have had these wedges for SO long- but def had to break them out for this look!
Such a lovely and trendy romper. You look so good Ashley. Lovely smile! 🙂

Girl, that cardi looks SO good on you! The color pops so beautifully on you and I love the way you’ve styled it with that romper. I had my eye on that cardi in white. Now you have me second guessing, it looks so cozy and easy to style. Thanks for the inspo; fall is my favorite season to dress for, so you’re getting me excited!

I love the playsuit and the knit adds a great contrast to it.

This knit is going to be on heavy repeat come fall- for now, I love for super chilly restaurants and movie theaters!
What a pretty romper! I really like the colours and pattern too!
Have a lovely day 🙂

Thanks, Ann! Happy Hump Day!
This romper is so cute, and I can’t imagine wanting to wear a long cardigan when it’s still 90 out! It will be cold soon enough, I’d rather enjoy the summer.
Chic on the Cheap
I’m always freezing inside- my office is perennially 60 degrees, I swear! I like bringing something like this for indoor use. 🙂
I’m never ready for summer to leave but I do love all the fall colours. This is such a perfect transition romper. It is so cute with a cozy cardi!
