The Kari romper, The Crosby swimsuit, The Shelly leggings, The Miller shorts, The Milo cardigan, The Jane T-shirt, The Quince day robe, Chucks, Slides, Sunglasses

June is finally here, which means summer is about to be in full swing in the Northern Hemisphere. There is nothing like the warm sun tingling on my skin to get me in the mood to be creative with my wardrobe. Every summer, I like to have a go-to dress that I can dress up or down, depending on the occasion. This year I’d like to spice things up a bit, so I am looking for a ready-for-any-occasion romper instead! I invite you to join me in getting your glow on by sewing this saucy summer capsule highlighting the Kari romper.

This romper features a trapeze fit, scoop neckline, and a beautiful shoulder tie detail—making it a show-stopping statement piece and the perfect base for this summer capsule. It even has pockets! Follow along with me as I style this eye-catching romper with some of my favorite summery Seamwork patterns.

Outfit 01:

Kari, Crosby, Slides, Sunglasses

One of the things I love most about this romper is that it doubles as a swimsuit cover-up! Slip Kari on over the Crosby swimsuit, and you’ll be ready to go wherever the summer breeze takes you.

Outfit 02:

Kari, Shelly, Milo, Slides

For a bit of extra warmth or a pop of color, try putting on a pair of Shelly leggings underneath the Kari romper. Finish off this look with the Milo cardigan and a pair of slides.

Outfit 03:

Kari, Jane, Chucks, Sunglasses

For a fun layered look and some additional texture, you can layer the Jane T-shirt underneath this romper. Finish off this summer outfit with chucks and, of course, your favorite sunglasses!

Outfit 04:

Kari, Slides, Sunglasses

Looking for a zero-fuss outfit for those blazing hot summer days? Simply pop on the Kari romper, slip on your slides and go! Just don’t forgot to grab your sunnies as you head out the door.

Outfit 05:

Kari, Quince, Slides

The Quince day robe is the perfect accompaniment to Kari because of its loose fit and breezy silhouette that mimics the trapeze shape of this romper.

Outfit 06:

Jane, Shelly, Chucks

When Kari is in the wash, go for a sporty look by pairing the Shelly leggings and the Jane T-shirt together with a pair of chucks. For some extra waist definition, try knotting the T-shirt.

Outfit 07:

Crosby, Miller, Slides, Sunglasses

Another laundry day outfit that is perfect for a day by the water is the Crosby swimsuit with the Miller shorts. These shorts feature a paperbag waistline which makes them a breeze to take on and off and super comfortable!

Outfit 08:

Jane, Miller, Milo, Slides

You can also tuck the Jane T-shirt into the Miller shorts for yet another outfit to help you get your summer glow on. Finish off this look with the Milo cardigan and slides.
