How do I love rompers? Let me count the ways. Much like Jennifer, I dislike having to place more than one article of clothing upon my person in the morning. But unlike Jennifer, I love rompers, because I ride a bike around and climb up ladders to rooftops and dance on inappropriate surfaces and occasionally, get drunk and fall over, which are all things it’s better to do in a romper than a dress. Also, they’re versatile and flattering and possibly even sexy, provided you don’t get one that makes you look like a giant baby. Here are ten excellent rompers that I’ve found for you to consider purchasing this summer. More »

Unlike the many complainers who constantly pollute the Internet with their anti-fun diatribes, I love summer. I love it so much, in fact, that I was only mildly peeved about living in a loft with no AC from the time I graduated college until the first of this month. (That’s more than four years, for those keeping track at home.) And now that I have the ability to cool my dwelling, I love it even more wholeheartedly. Sure, it can feel like you’re walking around inside someone’s mouth at times, but how much better does that make the ocean breeze feel once you make it to the beach? It’s with this in mind that I present you with some choice words from my colleagues and my own brain about this, the most controversial of seasons. More »

Poll: Was Venus Williams’ Wimbeldon Playsuit Really That Bad?

Poll: Was Venus Williams' Wimbeldon Playsuit Really That Bad?

No Venus! blasts The Daily Mail, calling Venus Williams’ Wimbeldon look “ghastly” and a “fashion disaster” all in one exceptionally wordy headline. Not that the Mail‘s writers are ever arbiters of reasonableness (or good taste), but apparently Venus is taking a lot of criticism for her outfit on the court. Now, it may not move terrifically (see left) and it’s not the most flattering romper I’ve ever seen but frankly: the woman is a professional athlete. If she can play tennis in it, doesn’t the outfit satisfy its purpose? More »

I was a diehard romper hater for years. Then I tried one on and couldn’t believe how flattering they were. That said, fit is crucial… unless you want to end up looking like a little kid (and I still kind of cringe when boutiques refer to them as “playsuits”). Anyway, if you’re a romper holdout, I respect that. But if you’ve always been a fan (or crossed over, like me) here’s a bunch of rompers fit for many occasions involving Spring. More »

Photoshop of Horrors: What Happened To This Victoria’s Secret Model’s Thighs?

Photoshop of Horrors: What Happened To This Victoria's Secret Model's Thighs?

Most of us are pretty used to seeing Victoria’s Secret models with no thighs to speak of, but this is just off-putting. Turns out, if you’re looking for “beach linen rompers” on the company’s website, you’ll be confronted with this alien creature from a planet of wide-hipped, spindly-legged, romper-wearing beings. When will big brands like Victoria’s Secret (and Ralph Lauren and Ann Taylor and H&M) learn that no one finds this appealing? And didn’t VS just pull this chicanery? More »
