So I was going about my day all nonchalantly, writing my day’s to-do list in my planner, when I happened to glance at the date and noticed that it is already the 17th of September. I’m sorry, what? How is it already the 17th of September?! How is September already almost over?? Here I am thinking in my head, “Staaaaaahp with all of the OMGITSFALLYOUGUYSITSFALL talk” when really. It is technically almost fall. We’re actually a week away from the declared “First Day of Fall.” And plus. School is back in session, which always automatically sheds a “Fall has begun” tone on everything. So okay. I won’t boycott the start of fall. I will embrace it. Although honestly, we don’t even really get a fall season in California. It’s more like, extended summer. It’s still hot well into October, and we’re in that little thing called a DROUGHT right now, so who knows when it will rain- although I’m praying to the rain gods that this year will be a wet one, because honestly being in a drought is pretty scary, guys. So, fall. And things and stuff. Okay. Rant over.
On another note, I’m really digging long sleeved rompers for “fall” and this one fits the bill perfectly for the summer-fall transition, wouldn’t you say?

Ohhh I love that romper. Perfect to transition into Fall where Dark Florals are very in, currently. Hope baby boy is doing well.
I’d love for you to stop by my blog and see how I am remixing my closet all this month. Let me know what you think, Katie. Thanks.
Happy Wednesday! Ada. =)
Katie
Yes, I love dark florals in the fall! And I will definitely check out your remix! Sounds fun!

Haha, so funny that you say you get an “extended summer”– the bf and I were just talking about how we get “extended winter” in NY and it kinda overtakes every other season!
Katie
Haha I’ve heard that about NY- total opposite of us! ;) I’d love to live somewhere with a real winter sometime!

I LOOOOOOOVE the long sleeved romper! Dying over yours! My husband hates rompers, but I just adore them!
Katie
Haha! I’m pretty sure every husband hates rompers. It’s just like, a husband rule. ;)

Omg I’m absolutely obsessed with this!!! I’ve been trying to find the perfect romper and this might be it, and it would be perfect for an upcoming wedding I have :D.
Katie
Aww so fun! This would be super cute at a wedding! Keep in mind, it’s on the shorter side, so if you have long legs it might be a tad risque for a wedding ;)

This romper is perfect for your extended summer :) I’m in NJ and it’s cold in the morning and beautiful in the afternoon so I am wearing long sleeves and sandals right now and I am not complaining one bit! I would dress like this all year long if I could! Cute look!

I loooove wearing long sleeves and bare legs- it’s like my favorite thing! Is that weird? haha There’s just something about it. It’s always perfect weather if you can wear that, I think. :)

Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries
Yessss. LOVING this. Seriously perfect for “fall” here in AZ (because it feels like we hardly get one). Plus, it just feeds my obsession with rompers. ;)
Katie
Right?! Rompers are a total obsession of mine, too!

Ashley
Oooh, a sleeved-romper – I love it! The pattern is so pretty! I am kind of trying to boycott fall too, but of course I have to give in at some point. It’s just that when it is 85 degrees, it doesn’t feel like fall at all :)
Katie
Haha I knowww it’s hard to get into the fall spirit when it’s warm! We’re getting another heat wave coming this weekend, so yeah. I’ll really have to push myself to feel “fall”-y ;)

Becky
This is the perfect transition romper! Love the long sleeves!

Long sleeves on rompers are a new favorite of mine, for sure! The best of both worlds ;)

You are just the cutest thing ever. I wish I could pull off a romper! They look so cozy!

You could totally get away with that Romper for fall, maybe you could layer tights underneath and wear boots with it and a chunky sweater overtop?
You are SO PETITE! I get a lot os style inspiration from you since I’m under 5 feet!
Katie
Boots and a romper is something I don’t think I’ve tried out yet… I’m excited to style rompers for fall though! :) And I’m actually 5’8″! I guess I just don’t look it in photos ;)

I totally get the Fall in California thing, although yesterday we had rain but it really does stay nice until October. Although you’re in Sac right? I think it gets hotter in Sac than in Santa Rosa. But still gotta love that CA weather. Love the romper! Makes me wish I could pull off the romper look :)
Katie
I am in Sac, yep! :) You got rain? That must have been glorious! With this stupid drought, we neeeed all the rain we can get!
