A couple of things to note here - #1, I bought and wore a jumpsuit in public! LOL  As with most polarizing trends (culottes & flared crops come to mind), I was at first against/on the fence about rompers/jumpsuits.  I tried a couple of rompers last summer, and they didn't work, if I recall correctly they felt too young-looking and pyjama-ey.  I was convinced to try a pants version by a few of my very encouraging co-workers and I have to say, I am really liking this one from Old Navy!  I have already worn it again since, although it is difficult to re-style being that it is pretty much a complete outfit in and of itself. I do feel slightly like I am wearing pyjamas in it, and therefore will likely reserve it for more casual work days.  Unfortunately I can't wear it much outside of work as my husband has made it clear that he is NOT a fan of the look! 
#2, this striped top from Old Navy doesn't photograph well but I promise in person it's quite cute.  It's boxy and slightly cropped, which is a different silhouette than I normally wear, so it's a nice change.  Also the mustard yellow/white/navy blue combo is great.  The only dislike is that it's difficult to wear a topper (cardigan, blazer) with this because of the boxiness and the longer sleeves.
#3, clearly I need a new pair of black flats because all I seem to wear these days are these old Vince Camuto flats!  The leather starting to wear at the toe so I recently picked up these loafer-style flats from Aldo.  They are buttery-soft and I love them!  Normally I wear a 6 1/2, but I got a 6 in these and they are fine.  They were sold out of the 6 1/2 in-store and online at the time (I see now they are re-stocked online in multiple sizes) so I wasn't able to compare, but the SA convinced me the leather would stretch and I from wearing them for a week, I think she's right.

Well, that's all for now!  Let me know if you have any questions and thanks for reading!
