Today I’m taking a look at a Miss Candyfloss piece that I didn’t expect to order…the Lalie-Violette romper!

This romper wasn’t pictured in the “Legendary Liz” lookbook, and was a surprise release. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it…I love the idea of a sunsuit for summer, the color palette is stunning, and there’s a coordinating overskirt, which is my favorite clothing combination at this time of year. But the largest size it was available in was a 3X, and I usually (but not always) purchase my pieces in 4X. After looking at the size chart, I decided to take a chance, realizing that it might not work out, but it actually fits perfectly!

I accessorized with hair flowers, an Erstwilder brooch, a Meteor Jewelry Co. necklace, a stack of Splendette Duchess Bangles, and wind…it gets pretty breezy on the Old Chain of Rocks Bridge, which, as a part of the old Route 66, was the perfect place to photograph this mid-century marvelous look!

I love how easy a playsuit is to wear!

This is the perfect outfit for a warm summer day!

And here’s a look at the previously-mentioned coordinating Krila-Wisteria overskirt…I love the way it looks with the romper, but I’m also looking forward to pairing it with tops from my wardrobe!

I love a surprise Miss Candyfloss release, especially when it works out so well!
