OOTD Hack: Switch out that LBD for a Little Black Romper

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at OR State chapter.

I’m not sure about about you all, but rompers are my new best friend. It can be hard to find a good one, but when you do, it’s the most amazing thing ever.

I’m always on the hunt for perfect day-to-night style staples that are stylish, comfortable, and flexible for anything that may come my way. My new go-to for work and girl’s night alike? My amazing Little Black Romper (LBR).

Much like the all-powerful LBD, the LBR is a simple yet chic one-piece that can be dressed up or down to easily transition from day to night. I love wearing my black, lacy Topshop romper with strappy flats at work or for running errands, and I can easily swap out my accessories and slip into some heels for late night drinks with the girls. However, when you’re wearing a romper you don’t have to worry about the caveats of wearing a dress; you’re totally free to dance around, hop onto a bicycle, or do pretty much anything you want without having to worry about showing too much.

Here are three easy looks that range from simple to sexy, with footwear ideas that could be mixed and matched for all of your fancy or casual plans, from date night to bar hopping.
